Food addiction and Oreos

 I have had a few "eye openers" lately. One being me labeling myself a "food addict" This realization has had a great impact on myself. It has allowed me the freedom to enjoy food without binge eating AND it has given me the opportunity to take my fitness to a whole new level! Great huh. What got me to this point. So,  I was over weight basically my entire life. Maybe when I was 18yrs old I was 130lbs for like a second. After having babies I was even BIGGER. Fought the good fight and lost ALL the weight. Was it easy..uhhh NO.I kicked and screamed the entire way. It took me almost 3 years to lose 100lbs. A few months ago I came to the understanding that if I would have started from the inside and tackled my food addiction first it would NOT have taken me so long to lose the weight AND I would have not had as many setbacks. Food addiction has been put on the front lines for me. I know it exists and I know it does not have to define me or my health. Also I can have Oreos when  I want as long as it's in the morning...after I work out. :)
