Injured and struggling with eating habits
As the title says - I can’t workout much cause of an injury and it’s really messing with my eating. I’m turning to food out of boredom, comfort, etc. and feel like I’m losing my identity as an athlete. I haven’t gained much weight since my injury or anything, but does anyone have advice on how to feel more at peace and habits to practice during this time when I can’t workout? I think I’m just so bored that I’m using food for enjoyment. But I also have a lot of other hobbies and things I could be doing that ARENT food. It’s just that those things don’t give me that same sense of novelty and comfort that food does (or, that exercise did).
