Kryptonite Part 2

Food is my kryptonite.   My relationship with food is complex and dysfunctional.  It has been that way most of my life.  I have messed around with food for so many years that I have no sense of hunger nor do I recall ever having that feeling.  Now that I have a hernia my stomach will let me know it has been too long since I have eaten by giving me heartburn.  I do get very persistent cravings which can last for many hours regardless of what I eat or do not eat.  I am often almost paralyzed in my inability to select food that will satisfy my needs.  This is because simple nutrition is not the only need that food meets.

You’re doing it all wrong!

I’m sure you have heard the saying that “a little bit of knowledge is a dangerous thing”.  Well that is my topic for today.  People have a tendency to become very invested in the bit of knowledge they have and are unable to see that there are other ways of doing things and other experiences out there. My personal pet peeve is when I am discussing a success I have had in some area of my life and I get the “You are doing it all wrong”.  I had success, how can it be all wrong.  Ahh, I didn’t do things the same way as my companion did.  I got from point A to B by a different route and apparently my way is full of as yet unidentified pit falls.  It can be frustrating trying to get a person to understand that you are different than they are and that what works for them may not work for me.  Their path may be shorter and smoother for most but maybe not for me.
