GOODBYE CRAVINGS

Prompt:

“Write about a moment when you realized you were becoming someone new — even if the outside world didn’t see it yet.”

Reflection:

I don’t get food cravings anymore. After a year of eating clean and working out, I noticed that candy bars, pizza, and sugary treats don’t pull at me the way they used to.

This is a huge inner shift. I don’t think about food much at all now, just normal hunger signals.

Nothing magical happened. I didn’t take weight-loss medication, though I would have if it were available. 

For many years, it felt like I ate too much or the diets felt too restrictive. Now, though, I eat good healthy meals until I am full and don’t think twice about it.  I became someone who eats out of hunger, not impulse. 

Once the diet piece falls into place, the body eventually follows. I have become someone new and perhaps the outside world does not see that yet—I am happily indifferent about it all.
