How to Hate Food

This is the hardest part to me. Especially if you're someone like I was. I loved food. It made me happy. I would judge how good a day was based on if I ate my favorite foods. That's why I was fat. That's why I'm still fat. Taco Bell chalupas were my favorite thing on earth. Guess what? I've still got proof of that. 180 pounds of it that I'm trying desperately to make disappear. So I've decided to make a list of tips and tricks about how to make yourself hate food.

• Negative associations. Look at pictures of disgusting things- vomit, dead bodies, organs, brains, surgical procedures, etc. Things that will make you not want to eat. Its even better if you can associate them with specific foods. "Chocolate cake looks like diarrhea." "Lasagna looks like brains." "Spaghetti looks like organs." "This meatloaf looks like that rotten dead cat that got hit by a car." And so on.
• Tell the food you don't need it. Open the fridge, look that block of asiago cheese in the face and say, "I don't need you to make me fatter than I already am." And walk away. Sounds silly, but its empowering.
• Think about where the food came from. Dead cows, dead chickens, a cow's utter, a filthy corporation, etc. Food comes from disgusting places.
• Think about what eating that food is going to do to your body. How fat it will make you.
• If you have to eat, sit in front of the mirror (naked if you can, but not recommended if you don't live alone) and watch yourself eat it. You'll judge yourself and soon realize that it wasn't worth picking up the twinky.
• Take your food and smash it up. I bet that snack cake looks pretty disgusting with the cream all exploded and the crumbs all mashed in a ball. Now tell yourself what an awful person you are for wasting that food just because you didn't have the self control to not even touch it. There are starving kids in Africa who could've eaten that. REAL STARVING KIDS WHO AREN'T FAT ASSES LIKE YOU.
• If you cave and make yourself something, take salt, pepper, ground cinnamon, sugar, etc. and sprinkle it ALL OVER IT to the point where you can't eat it. This could also work with ketchup or mustard or something like that.
• Look at pictures of raw meat or look up stories of people who got food poisoning. Food is gross.
• Look at pictures of obese people. Reverse thinspo. This is what you'll become if you eat that piece of pizza.
• Look at pictures of thin people. This is what you'll become if you maintain your self control.

These are just a few ways to make yourself hate food and realize how bad it is. Feel free to comment more ideas, tips, and tricks below.
