The book didn't seem to talk about the social part of eating - like when you are at an event where eating is part of the Johanna GGGhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08594201473931487490noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10611609.post-22666862744184558772020-06-04T14:51:31.539-05:002020-06-04T14:51:31.539-05:00Yes, this book is amazingly relevant.

As a visual learner, I have learned to focus on buying/consuming a higher ratio of foods found on the perimeter of the grocery store vs. that which is inside the store aisles. The perimeter food is often fresh, less or non-processed and less likely to have the sugars, fats, etc that are in the center of the store.

Now you obviously don't have to take any advice from random bloggers, but I can't help saying this: the immense guilt is really counter-productive in this case. If there is one thing I've learned from my reading on this subject, it is that we are just animals, creatures of biology who are living in this food environment that's really wrong for usNupurhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03890441057480820053noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10611609.post-5151430598856505752020-06-02T05:40:46.252-05:002020-06-02T05:40:46.252-05:00Dear Kamini- your little anecdote about the chips ...Dear Kamini- your little anecdote about the chips and soda breakfast broke my heart. This is a country with so much excess. We can do better than this. There are so many barriers to making simple home cooked food. It involves having a stable home in the first place, and time and tools and skills and fresh ingredients. There are such massive inequities when it comes to food. <br /><br />It is Nupurhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03890441057480820053noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10611609.post-59968341571350325872020-06-02T05:25:59.510-05:002020-06-02T05:25:59.510-05:00Neha- thank you for this thoughtful comment! What ...Neha- thank you for this thoughtful comment! What you said about "seeing" food really resonated with me, because one of my biggest habit changes was to look at the food on a plate before starting on a meal and really SEE what I was about to put into my body. It really helps me pause before inhaling food mindlessly.

I am acutely aware of my own immense tendency to eat emotionally, in spite of knowing better, in spite of working very hard to put freshly-cooked nutritious meals on the table every single day. Yet I struggle everyday with the urge to mindlessly inhale processed snacks from a packet, an urge that has nothing to do with hunger of the stomach. And there is Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08517659172965262078noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10611609.post-3685529712124880582020-06-01T09:38:02.824-05:002020-06-01T09:38:02.824-05:00Totally loved this post Nupur.

Like so many others, I was seduced and tricked by the marketing claims of big food companies, and it showed in increased weight and decreased energy. Like you I made the effort to cut out all processed food from my diet and now we eat food made fresh at home for the most part. But that is a luxury that I am fortunate to be able to afford.

And a welcome side effect has been translated into mindful eating as well. I no longer struggle with portion control and do quite well with intuitive eating.
