The “I Deserve To Eat This” Mentality

Summary

Often, we think to ourselves… “I deserve to eat this.”

This mentality of “I deserve to eat this” is one of the things that can keep us in an emotional eating cycle and cycle of yo-yo dieting.

It's so important to acknowledge that this mentality is pervasive, especially as we're reframing our relationship to food and working to heal our attachments with eating.
