Hey guys,
I'm not sure where to post this, I hope here is alright. I like to eat healthy ( really clean high carb paleoish diet ) not so much for weight but more so how I feel/digestion/skin. I've read about orthorexia too much (online) and while I know I don't have that issue, I convince that my diet is too restrictive and eventually I crack and eat things I normally would shudder at and then I fall into a hole of eating like that for weeks. I tried to start this way of eating for a while and failed but when I began watching Leo's videos they helped me to do it for weeks at a time. Because of my black and white thinking Ive been gaining weight when I mess up. One week I wont prepare a salad on the same counter as my mom was slicing bread, the next week im eating peanut butter & jelly sandwiches.. From the outside I look at my behaviour and its ridiculous. I sometimes think I'm better off just eating whatever I want in moderation (so I don't create insane cravings through "denying" certain foods) but I know deep down that i don't fully thrive living that way and I feel so much better eating 99% healthy. This is all in my control, I know, but I just feel stuck and was wondering if anyone has any suggestions?
