Food has always been a pretty big love language of mine π₯Ήπππ₯π
But my relationship with it has changed A LOT over the yearsβ¦
From having an ED, to being vegan for 8 years, to now having what Iβd genuinely describe as food freedom, itβs been quite the journey!!! ππ»
And today actually marks 2 years since I officially stopped being vegan π΅
And just to be clear, absolutely no hate towards veganism! It worked for me for 8 years, I agree with the morals/values, & I still eat loads of vegan foods now. It just ultimately stopped working for me, and I needed a more flexible approach to my food π₯°β€οΈβπ©Ή
These days, food is so much more than fuel to me:
β¨Itβs trying somewhere newβ¨β¨Itβs ordering something because it sounds bloody deliciousβ¨β¨Itβs cooking for people I loveβ¨β¨Itβs holidays, dates, birthdays, spontaneous dinners and finding a little restaurant you canβt stop thinking about
β¨Itβs pleasure. Itβs memories. Itβs time spent with people
And Iβm so bloody grateful that I get to enjoy it that way now β€οΈβπ©Ήβ€οΈπ
Iβm still care about nutrition & eating well of course, but I also really bloody love food and indulging. I totally think both can exist!!!
So hereβs a little collection of things Iβve been eating lately ππ€€π₯¦ππ
