I see food and eat it. Lately I've had a big junk food problem. Not that anyone would notice thanks to a high metabolism haha.

It used to be horrific.

But, with help from my coach, and my own new found discipline, it’s so much better.

Surprisingly enough I sometimes feel guilty when I've eaten too many sweet things or junk food or snacks etc, however not to the point where I'll take drastic action to rectify my guilt.

I don't think there's anything wrong in feeling shit about your diet or eating habits as long as you don't do anything drastic to try and correct it. Try make small changes over a period of time is what usually works best.

Good food is a passion for us.

We enjoy cooking, going to nice restaurants.

We over indulge at times and then we have to revert to reduced portions/healthier foods but life is about living and so it’s getting that balance right…

I'd say it was pretty normal. Although I can go a few days without eating anything substantial. That's usually when I simple don't have the time (poor excuse I know) or I don't have an appetite, either because of illness or being frustrated with things beyond my control. I haven't eaten properly in a few days and I can't see my appetite coming back anytime soon.

Stressed comes to mind.

Far more interested in spending money on good quality ingredients and high quality dining experiences that most other areas of discretionary expenditure.

"How is your relationship with food"

Complicated!

I turned around my fixation and addiction to food once I understood what was driving it, by abandoning carbs 14 years ago.

I've slipped many times but always come back because I retrained my 'vision' of that sort of food and it's helped that I went from almost 21 stones to my avatar pic. It made me smug, as did the resulting huge improvement in health.

Two years ago I went pure carnivore and it will stay that way until I die or get a terminal illness and if that ever happens, I have a special menu all planned out which will result in my corpse being winched out through a removed window by a crane.

Dumping carbs set me free.

Some folks have to do drastic things.

Cold turkey for me as I was one of those people who would pour washing liquid over food leftovers in the bin in the hope it would stop me from eating them but I often washed it off and ate it anyway.

It's been a lot better since I started going to the gym. Before, I would eat out of convenience and it would be ok but now I can make proper meals and prep them too and even though I can't help snacking, I'll make sure they're something like fruit or nuts or rice cakes.

I do indulge on the weekend though which I could improve but it's a bit harder without the structure of the working week.

On the whole it isn't bad. I enjoy my food. However, I also get moderate 'reflux'...but I'm too lazy to figure out which foodstuffs are the culprits.

"How is your relationship with food"

Love/hate. From birth we are encouraged to see food as reward and entertainment, so not surprisingly we all have challenges at times. Breaking the cycle is nigh impossible where so many make a living selling it to you.

Sometimes wonder if there should be a state sponsored all-in-one food (like pet food) that gives you all you need nutritionally - to reset the approach to food

Awful.

Always has been and as far as I can see always will be.

I'm a yo yo dieter but when I get to my slim range I freak out (mainly due to guys seeing me differently, I can't handle it) so I eat again and it just goes round and round I keep saying this is the year... And I'm 40 this year so I really want it to be the year but I'm yet to make substantial changes for October.....

The State are responsible for the mess people eat now and they are still using debunked science to say what is healthy. Do you want Soylent Green?

Capitalism is overwhelmingly why we eat what we eat, not the State. Not sure what science you mean specifically but agree there is a lot of poor research, in part because there is little money to be made *now* in making people eat less - of course it saves huge amounts in the future!

Capitalism is merely a economic model. I think you mean cronyism and corporatism which are both proponents of totalitarianism.

Different proteins are not the same, much like not all carbs are similar. It is never quite so simple with food let alone the nitty gritty. The question is always one of quality.

Very poor but I am working on it. Surprisingly having covid has affected my eating habits for the better. My palate has changed and I'm finding I'm hungry every couple of hours. I'm now grazing all day as well as encouraging myself to have 3 small meals.

I don't enjoy food, I really wish I could and its something I will change this year!

I have a good relationship with food which is surprising given my mother's terrible relationship with it. It's to her credit that she didn't pass it on.

I don't think of food in terms of good and bad and I don't feel guilty for eating certain things. I only realised how lucky I am when I worked with two women who were Slimming World people. They were obsessed with food to the point of being boring.

True. Not all are the same. But we have evolved to be pretty good at extracting what we need from our wildly varying diets. Problem *is* the quantity, and (over)availability, which our systems have no mechanism to deal with if the will is lacking. We are physiologically geared to famine but too many live in a constant feast.

It is an economic model that has no conscience or social consideration beyond an awareness that killing consumers too quickly damages the market. Cronyism etc can occur in many practical economic models (we don't have any pure ones - human nature prevents it). I focussed on Capitalism as it is arguably the worst offender that can occur within a democracy or non-totalitarian system. Whatever people are willing to pay for will be supplied, and whatever can be supplied a demand will be found (or created) - till it is hard to tell what you need from what manufacturers want to supply. Food is a great example.

It’s ok. I am very strict with my diet, and if I waver then it makes me feel guilty.

I sometimes use it as something I can control, if things are happening beyond my control, which isn’t very healthy. Despite that, the food I eat is generally very good.

On the run up to Christmas, we fell deeply in love and couldn't get enough of each other.

I'm starting to see some red flags though, and have a feeling it's not a healthy relationship.

I think I'm going to have to reduce the amount of times we get together

Food is not my friend. I am now a decent size 30 waist - previously I was struggling to fit into a 38, so I am always wary of eating anything that may make me put weight back on. Happily though I've been constant at my new size for 2 years now, so I can eat what I want as long as there's a bit of exercise sometime in the following days, which there is - that was another thing I didn't exercise before, so I think I've got the balance right now.

I can’t remember a time when I ate a meal without feeling guilty .In my younger days I suffered with bulimia .These days I tend to distract myself after a meal I go for a walk or do a jigsaw.I see eating more of a necessity than something to enjoy.
