Is your “Mr. Right” now turned into your sworn enemy? Well, all I can say is that breakup sucks. Though you two might not have ended things on a bad note, but still, it sucks! And there is no better way of saying this. I think there are very few people in this world who made it to adulthood without experiencing the agony of heartbreak. Generally, there are three standard stages everyone goes through in the process of moving on. First is the denial mode, where one is still believing things like “this can’t happen with us, we are an ideal couple, we just need a break.” Soon after this stage, he rushes in the second stage, which is anger. That is when alcohol and food become your best friends. Then, my friends, comes the acceptance!
Everyone has a different approach when it comes to dealing with these stages. Some channelize their anger into their work; others are busy with ‘revenge celebrating,’ some prefer to just curl up in bed and plan to cry for days. I would just say that no way is right or wrong to deal with a broken heart. It is just that some things can make it a little easier for you, and one such thing is food. Yes, food really can provide you comfort in such a situation. Why do you think the word ‘comfort food’ was even coined? So, following is a list of most comforting but healthy post-breakup foods that heal the broken heart.
Chocolate
Obviously, I had to start the list with chocolates because it is the most comforting food irrespective of the situation. There is a whole science behind why chocolates are comforting. You just focus on the fact that it has compounds that will boost your mood. Just have those chocolate bars and that cake already. The best part of cakes? You can get easy online cake delivery as well. Go for dark chocolate versions since we are sticking on the healthier side.
Ice cream
Well, hundreds of movies have displayed scenes where people with broken hearts rely on a tub of ice cream to feel better. This is because ice cream is known as the most favored comforting food. Now, grab that pint of ice cream and a box of tissue, and let’s do a ‘feel better’ session.
Red wine
I already gave you a hint that alcohol comes handy in heartbreaks. You might have already cracked it yourself, but I’m actually asking you to replace your tequila shots with healthy red wine. Red wine is actually safe for her, and right now, you should be soft on your heart because it is the one that is actually suffering. Oh, and yes, red wine is also good for the skin. The perfect way to make your ex jealous with that extra glow.
Popcorn
Ah! Popcorns, lighter than air, perfect for snacking. But do you know that popcorns can be healthier than vegetables? Not kidding, will explain it some other day, because here we are trying to move on. So, this air-light snack can make your heart feel light. So, prepare yourself a bowl of popcorns; this will give you a break from stalking your ex on Insta.
Now that you know what are the most comforting post-breakup foods you can munch on while staying healthy, make a smart decision, and be a little kind on your body.
