Keen to get some other views if possible! So I’m trying really hard to lose weight and tone up at the minute and it’s been going well - consistent eating and strength training and daily food noise has dropped which used to be really loud. BUT I’m in the office today and there are loads of amazing snacks and food noise/stress is back with a vengeance. Curious to hear from people who have worked hard to overcome food noise/binge eating as to whether I should expect this reaction for ever and whether it’s just a case of having to exercise a lot of willpower every time in order to override the reward seeking part of my brain or whether there does come a point where I may look at high calorie/sugar/fat food dispassionately?
Logically, I know the satisfaction will be short term vs my longer term goal of looking and feeling better and more confident, but it’s so hard to keep that in mind when my brain is just shouting at me to give it that reward!
I can’t imagine ever getting to a point where I don’t want to massively overeat when confronted with delicious food, and was curious about other people who may have been on a similar journey/battled similar demons re food noise/binging?
