I Block All Food Posts on Facebook, Here's Why

Stretchy cheesy goodness. Perfectly smooth sauce. Cookies that look ready to melt in your mouth. That was what my Facebook feed looked like awhile back. I was inspired in so many ways. None of those ways helped me to be a better person!

There is an epidemic of food posts on social media. It seems like there is a new heart attack inducing recipe popping up every day. And they all look SO GOOD. 

So I decided I would no longer be a victim, and began unfollowing each Group or Page that was responsible for creating them. I've unfollowed over 50 to date. 

I don't need any help in being more unhealthy, I can manage that just fine on my own thank you! 

The more we are exposed to certain foods or thoughts of foods, the more we will crave. And the stronger those cravings will be. 

Take charge over your thought life. Each and every little picture, video, and bit of text will lodge itself in your subconscious mind. Your subconscious can be a seemingly irrational, uncontrollable beast. 

Don't feed it thoughts and images that will cause more cravings down the road.

Click the top corner of a post where the three vertical dots are. There will be an option to Unfollow Posts from a particular person OR the Page/Group that shared it. Unfollow the page that shared it, and voila, you're one step closer to containing that insatiable hunger monster and waistline destroyer, you're subconscious mind.
