Hi Everyone,
Since starting this diet I have become obsessed with cookery programmes, cookery books and baking. I know this is very common on VLCD but it has become an obsession. I love feeding other people and getting my food relationship through them. I have had so many baking books/utensils for christmas.
This is bad as it shows I am still not handling my relationship with food very well. Even though Im not eating Im enjoying the process of cooking and watching others eat. Ive become a FEEDER. Oh no! At least its only my skinny husband who is "suffering" at the moment.
What can I do to stop this? Im worried that food is still of major importance to me even though Im not eating. Food should be less important so it does not control me or my emotions etc. im due to start RTM in a couple of weeks. HELP!
Sorry for my rambling but just wondered if anyone had any thoughts. I know food should be enjoyed but I want to just enjoy it like "normal" people not think about it 24/7 which is what I do on any diet.
