I always hate hearing people say things like this. Truthfully, I even find it a little scary.
One of the hallmarks of obsessive compulsive eating is letting food (and especially specific types of food) affect your mood.
It’s one thing to be a little upset because you know you ate A LOT more than you needed to at a meal, it’s another thing to be downright depressed becuase you ate a piece of garlic toast at lunch.
It doesn’t matter if you are a bodybuilder or someone who is trying to get back into shape – Food is there to be enjoyed.
In fact, most of us would do incredibly well just by following the credo of “Eat a LITTLE less and ENJOY the foods you eat”.
That would probably be the ‘healthiest’ thing we could do for ourselves.
Even traditional junk foods can be enjoyed – As long as you eat them in moderation.
If you are constantly letting food effect your moods, I think 0ne of the best things you can do for yourself is to learn to enjoy food again.
