Realisations on your “path” to complete freedom from food that need to dawn in order for you to count yourself cured.
1 Food doesn’t inherently matter – any meaning or enjoyment I’ve gleaned from it is entirely self-created.
2 I no longer get that excited about it.
3 Food can’t make me feel happy / elated, it can’t do anything besides nourish me and keep my innards functioning.
4 Any feelings it has been “making” me feel have been self-created ie have not be created by the food and pushed on me.
5 I am rid of it as a source of excitement. I enjoy food, but I see no need to get excited about it. If I am, then I’m feeling an illusion.
6 It’s over.
7 Any sadness or depression I feel about that is also self-created.
8 I’m not losing anything. Any feelings of loss (like, no more do I get to experience the thrill of being about to stuff my face), is illusory.
9 There’s nothing to wait for – I’ve accepted a state of being where food is a source of nourishment for my body, not excitement, so my success / the end of my food obsession / thinness is guaranteed.
10 Being fat doesn’t make me feel anything. Being thin doesn’t make me feel anything.
11 My feelings are self-created because they come from my thought in the moment.
12 I accept a new state of being and draw a line under this shitshow.
Woo hoo, I’m cured!!
