Health and food, a clean action plan? Listener question

I really enjoyed the GOLD course and feel like I have gotten a lot out of it, but in a surprising, to me, indirect way. While I’m not without plenty of money issues, this is not my most pressing concern. 

The gift of this course for me has been that, as I watched the lessons, a distance, a space, a measure of objectivity, opened for me . As you discussed untangling money from the self-identified mind, over and over I heard money as a metaphor for anything the mind uses to seek security, worth, love, etc. You spoke of money, and I heard this as a metaphor for how this body/mind uses food and weight. 

So I’ve journaled and been curious about the feelings and thoughts around food/weight which has really been ramping up the more I explore the body/mind system with a rollercoaster mix of urgency and compassion. 

Where I’m really confused and what I’m asking for help with, is how to formulate a “clean” action plan, as it were, around food. I’ve been on and in rebellion of so many diet plans my entire life and my mind is full of contradictory science, labels and rules. 

I love how at the end of the GOLD Day 5 lesson there is a clean action plan for money. Could you offer me pointers on how to formulate something similar for approaching food? I sense I need something back in alignment with body needs for health, but am at a loss for how to proceed. I feel like I’m almost there, but it’s just out of reach and I need a nudge or pointer.

Thanks so much for all your sharing and love.
