You ever eat something and just know it’s not about the food?
Like, you’re not even hungry. You just need a break. Or something to do. Or something to feel better for a second.
I do it too.
It’s not about being “bad” or “undisciplined.” It’s usually just called - being human. Tired, stressed, overstimulated, bored - fill in the blank.
This isn’t a “don’t eat it” post.
It’s more like, notice it.
That’s it. Just notice.
Because when you do, you actually get to choose what might help.
Sometimes it’s food.
Sometimes it’s stepping outside.
Or moving your body.
Or speaking to someone who gets it.
Whatever it is, you’re allowed to need something.
