Food Shaming.... Not Me!

One side effect of coaching I have come to discover is that I'm finding myself involved in more and more conversations about food.  At first it was conversations about my food and what I eat.  That's fair.  I kind of expected that.  But here lately, I've found myself smack-dab in the middle of other's explaining to ME why they are eating what and how they are eating....

I have to laugh... I mean, I am not an expert at all.  I also don't walk around judging people for what they put in their mouths.  Hear me when I say that.... I do NOT judge you for what you put into your mouth.  I enjoy my meals.  I eat yummy things.  Heck, I drink a chocolate shake every day for breakfast :)

Also hear me say, that if it makes you feel better to confess to me (yes, I get confessionals as well), then please do it.  But please know that I am not perfect.  The same foods you eat, I want to eat... and I do find them in my mouth sometimes.  

We are in this together.  I am not better than you.  You are not better than me.  And at the end of the day, don't feel bad about what you've eaten.  It happened.  You ate it.  Move on.  Don't stop your forward momentum because you had a Kit Kat (or 3) from the front office candy jar (See what I did there... I just confessed to you!)
