Behavior mod and nutrition class today. Go or no go
Here is the thing you can still enjoy food your not doomed to a flavorless exsistance where food is something to avoid at all cost it’s simply about modifying the way you enjoy food there are ways to eat and eat healthy and enjoy life ok just think about your daughter I was about her age when I noticed I was the big kid my dad was a big guy he drank also maybe a bit too much but you can help her sooooooo much by leading by example how and what to eat that it’s ok to try a new way

Food Control Me
I have found when I obsess over food like nonstop 24/7 think about it is when I have the least control if the only thing I am thinking about is food of course I’m gonna wanna eat but try to occupy your mind there is always gonna be tempting things we live in a culture where everything revolves around food from holidays birthdays to funerals break ups every thing so prioritize your goals accomplish something every hour I like to play mobile games specificiallly logic games I like to progress thru the levels and test my brain
