Food and the Serenity prayer...

I was emailing a friend who had requested "any ideas" when it comes to food. I was thinking of the serenity prayer (oh so common to "anonymous" programs.. ) but soooo wise...

Accepting:
So, what I think we have to accept.... is that we will always be practicing.. maybe practicing different things, but there will never be a top of the mountain, I reached my goal, I'm done... because you still have to eat after that.. .and there's always a big fuzzy grey line as to what is good and what is bad and how much and ads on tv and photos where you think your xyz looks bad... and dressing rooms.. and buffets and cookies..... and it will never go away...
I think that when we accept... when we realize, every skinny "perfect" woman in the world feels the same way about her body.. has the same food issues... it's like.. oh...ok.... this is how it is..I'll always be practicing....I can't change that... I'll never be 100% content w/ my body 100% of the time...

Changing:
mindful eating, choices of what I do when I know that my cravings are just a way to balance my parasympathetic nervous system out, what I buy and keep in my house, if I workout or not..

Wisdom:
this is what I know for sure: I KNOW I feel way better, mood, energy, etc. if I work out and eat well. I KNOW that I get a headache and grumpy when I eat sugar. I KNOW that I have so much more energy after running. I KNOW that my body feels so good after yoga. I KNOW I like whole foods better than junk food. I KNOW that if I just did some alternate nostril breathing that I calm down.

Peace
