Brain vs Body tug-of-war

Feb 23, 2026

My brain and body is contanly disagreing about what foods to eat.  My brain wants the familiar fried food or junk food and my body constantly rejects it, sometimes with a vengence depending on what types of foods I try to eat. I came to a conclusion that this will be my everyday life struggles. Sometime I got it under control and other times the rug gets pulled from under me and I just blank out and forget about doing the right things. 

My old habits that ran the show got cancelled. Patterns that were once familiar I want to stay gone.  I gave my self new patterns to counteract the old ones:

  • After 6pm I choose not to eat
  •  choose not to graze constantly all day. 
  • I choose to talk out loud to myself and ask myself if I am truly hungry

I reset my self everyday by weighing daily. It works for me.

current weight 158.7
