Dieting new style
after many moons of struggling to eat this way or cut out something healthy I love, I am finally deciding to go to a dietitian. Many of you are probably thinking why, you know what to eat and what not to eat. You know how to read labels.” Yes, yes I do.
But eating healthy and balancing weight, insulin and sugar levels without feeling ill-pre-pared or depressed from not eating something in moderation is getting to me. I want to know how do I balance if I know I need breakfast but the only thing available is snacks in my fridge. And what is better for me? To fee better or deprive myself of something? I have these and more questions that I fee a dietitian can hep men monitor without feeling like I fail every time I eat.
For example, I went on my no car /sugar diet. And while I know it works and I fee good, I was getting extremely tired of eating eggs and bacon for breakfast every morning. So I went back to my small cereal and coconut milk. Honestly, I felt better about eating that as breakfast because I would be full until lunch. Probably is, I eat breakfast and lunch so organized and dinner so late cause I’ve trying to eat with my husband. And I am sure that contributed to my problems.
I want to be able to eat mindful. Without feeling depressed, deprived or in despair over a little ice cream or a sandwich with grilled chicken.
I know I will figure out a way! A way to be at peace with food.

How did the visit go? Hopefully it is a good dietitian. I saw a dietitian once that was covered under my health insurance and she wasn’t very good or helpful, she basically just gave me a list of good things to eat and circled a few of them. But I know someone that is a dietitian and seems like she would be way more helpful (but more expensive) and actually does help to plan meals and everything.

I haven’t gone yet. We’ve had trouble trying to figure out a time to meet. I have been to a nutritionist and honestly she was not worth it.
