Diet this

If there is one thing that this writer does get annoyed about, it is when society adds this tremendous pressure to create this absurd world of suggesting that you need to diet to be acceptable to your self. Really? Diet this world, if you know I mean. It is one thing to watch what you eat, and be conscious of your calories, but the notion if you diet, you will be happy, and more importantly, your now accepted by society. Every one of my eating disorder clients, I encourage to halt this ridiculous attempt to diet. Male or female. If you are trying to lose weight, try exercising, and work on finding that unmet need that causes you to binge eat. Get to know your self, and understand why you feel the need to diet. Lets focus on self, then we will work on how to feel good about who you are and what you need to do. Learn how to enjoy your food and be comfortable with eating one portion at a time. Set goals for self that are based on not what society wants to label as attractive, or your girl friend or boy friend wants, spouse feels is important,  but what your current body will look good in. I can't tell you how important it is to exercise out these thoughts of dieting and start eating, yes eating healthier. Skipping meals and purging meals is not even dieting, only adding more stress to your life and lowering your self esteem. All shapes and sizes have benefits, you decide what your benefit it is for you. Body image is something you can control, with your thoughts, positive energy, and be disciplined. People who over come their eating disorders and lose weight the healthy way are one's that work on their self, and begin to feel positive about their body image regardless of society's erroneous expectations. Let the diet thoughts go, and start implementing the exercise thoughts, with positive energy that allows you to eat healthy, find balance with your own mental health and feel good about what you are eating. Find your higher power. Self can have fun with the body you created.  Stay in your health, stay in the moment.
