Mtn and i love to cook together, create new, healthy meal ideas and have dinner dates as often as possible. Eating disorder, food addiction, stress eating, emotional eating, i have been in a very unhealthy place with food over the years.

With my weight loss this last year and a half, i have been rediscovering my love of cooking, trying new foods since my tastes have changed tremendously. It feels amazing to be able to look at food the way i do now, and to be comfortable in the kitchen again.. Look forward to participating in this thread and getting as many ideas as We share ideas too!!

Good Morning Sylvie!

Welcome to the thread

I believe that so many of will be able to relate to being in an unhealthy place with food at some point in our lives. That is one of the things that I love about this community, we can post that we need support or help with this or that tough issue and several people will be right there to respond.

You will find lots of positive energy in this thread and we have many delicious ideas and cooking styles being discussed here. Such a nice group of talented cooks!

One of the things that I always tell friends who ask me about developing a healthier relationship with food is, try to get a good start to your morning like steel cut oatmeal, make sure you are well hydrated, have fresh fruit if you can..blood sugar issues, get those lean carbs in there. When we eat well, we FEEL so good.

Looking forward to reading your posts!
