@Francesca2020 posted:@Former Member I agree, but since being diagnosed with UC I've noticed a majority of people in general are disconnected from their bodies or quite frankly just don't care. I definitely have a firm understanding of my body and what a human needs to thrive between micronutrients, vitamins, etc. I'm 120 lbs far from obese, but despite not being obese and having the knowledge I have i still struggle with eating habits especially for dealing with a pouch. My mom is a trained health coach she told me im just being spoiled when it comes to food habits lol. Which I agree and now can understand what other people struggle with especially if they have major food addictions. Its hard to say no to the foods we love especially if its been a habit taught to us by our parents and then practiced for 20 or more years.
Right now im Finding that every time i eat cheese the pain comes on full bore. Yet I just can't seem to get a grip on self control and not touch the damn cheese. Im finding though I can beat food cravings easier if I stay busy. But it may be different for every person, no excuses but the struggle is real for those who have been "spoiled" 🤷♀️
Yeah we are only human.Its summer where I live and I thought I couldn't have my favourite ice cream that is iconic in my country .but they just released a vegan variant that tastes just the same but made from coconut milk.and I've been noticing how popular they are.Its great that because of others going non dairy I can enjoy my favourite summer ice cream.
