Mindful eating, day 19: Notice how you’ve changed

Today's challenge: Notice how your food relationship has changed.

TODAY'S CHALLENGE Notice how your food relationship has changed. On day 6 of this challenge, we asked you to get in touch with your feelings surrounding food by focusing on what emotions surfaced while consuming a meal and why. Today, we'll revisit this challenge to see if and how your emotions surrounding food have changed since the beginning of this mindful eating challenge. Try incorporating some of the techniques that you've learned over the past weeks, such as eating slowly and appreciating the flavor and color of your food, into today's exercise. You'll need a journal or other device to take notes with. Once you have that, ask yourself the following questions while eating a meal or snack: Does eating this food surface any emotions? If yes, which ones?  Why do you think these emotions are coming up?  Are you eating to satisfy hunger or are you eating to cope with a specific emotion?  Have these feelings changed since the beginning of this challenge? If yes, how? Compare today's notes with your notes from day 6 to see how your answers differ. Take time to reflect on how your feelings surrounding food have changed since beginning this challenge.   There's just two days left in our challenge. You're going strong!
