Have you ever been standing at your kitchen counter pounding a fork into a frozen cheesecake, even though you could have waited for it to thaw until the next day? Have you ever not finished heating something through because you just wanted it now, and even though it would have been more enjoyable with another 15 minutes in the toaster oven? Have you ever cooked something in the microwave because it was going to take 45 minutes in the oven buy only 5 minutes in the microwave even though in the microwave it would come out mushy and unappetizing? \u00a0That&#8217;s compulsive eating.<\/p>\n<p>The next time you find yourself eating something cold that would taste better warm, you have a good clue that you are eating for eating&#8217;s sake, not for enjoyment or nutrition. You then you know that you are engaging in a pattern or a behavior that is unhealthy. Try to stop, take a breath and tell yourself that the food will be better and you will enjoy yourself more if you heat it up, even if it takes time. If you don&#8217;t have the time to heat it up, wait until you do rather than compulsively eating something that is frozen or unappetizing. \u00a0 If you eat something cold or frozen or mushy, it will ultimately be unsatisfying and cause you to continue or spiral into a binge behavior&#8211; you will be chasing the taste that you are looking for.\u00a0In the time that it takes to heat up your food, try to sit and breath for a few moments and ask yourself, &#8220;am I okay?&#8221; \u00a0The simple act of heating your food can begin to turn you from a disordered eater to a mindful eater.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&nbsp; Have you ever wanted &#8220;to eat&#8221; so badly that rather than heating food up, you have stood in front of the refrigerator eating it cold?
