Re: future ex- eating when I'm not hungry-er and IE-er Professional

[Guest guest]

Thanks for the warm welcome, it s very much appreciated.

This morning at work, I went and grab for one of them little twixes, and a snicker and a bounty bar because I wanted to have them with coffee.. but upon having it I went and placed them back because I realized I didn't actually feel like having any of those.

Wow.. that' s like a biggie for me.

I' d like to know though, how you deal with the ' I' m hungry but I don' t know what I want to eat' crisis.

I sometimes stand in front of my fridge wondering what on Earth I' m going to eat because absolutely NOTHING is appealing to me... I end up eating something because I' m about to pass out..

Anybody has a tip on how to actually find out from my body what it is it really wants?

Welcome ! Drinking vinegar?! YUCK!!! My mother used to make me gargle with salt and vinegar and warm water when I had a cold. Sometimes I'd accidentally swallow some and I'd nearly throw up! Definitely not a vinegar fan. I don't even like salt and vinegar flavoured potato chips!

Again, welcome! This is great group and I'm sure you'll find the support you need!

Hi there all IE-ers, Allow me to introduce myself : my name is ; I'm 25 and I'm future ex-compulsive eater/OUT-ers/ binge eater/anything that relates to eating when you're not hungry. Though I' m not fat or obese per say, I might be considered slightly overweight, but I like to call it sensually voluptuous which in today's society is considered freakin'huge for some reason (Except if your name is Beyonce).I used to be really thin, and Ithink I was a natural IE-er because I didn't watch what I ate but just ate what I felt like eating. But in the past years I have been slowly gaining weight because I have moments where I just stuff myself, it can last a week during which I will eat anything that passes me by even if I'm not hungry I'll crave the weirdest things and eat without even appreciating what is in my mouth.And then I'lll feel guilty for stuffing myself, disgusted at looking at my belly round up or my cheeks

get thicker and I'll want to go on a miracle diet, which won't last more than 3 weeks until I think what the hell, I'm a free person I can do what I want and I don't need to look like a stick to feel good so I can eat... and there I go again on the roller coaster...It wouldn' t disturb me if I wasn't aware of how this could very quickly take me to a point of no return where I'm obese and desperate because I hate dieting.. When I found myself drinking oil or vinegar to lose weight I realized I had to do something.Since I read about IE I have been stuffing myself like a turkey all week ( and having free candies at work don't help), I have eaten all possible things at all possible hours just to work on feeling good about letting myself go about food, and remembering I can eat whatever I want. It actually works in the sense that I know how to refuse things (sometimes) now, eating all this stuff made me realize it'd never go missing. I could eat it

all now or it a little and see if I want some more later. And I have discovered the taste of too sweet (ME? chocolate addict) when I tried a cookie that was offered to me but my body was craving for salted food...- but I did eat the whole thing later in the pm- won't change everything too quick eh?Anyways, I'm really thinking this IE is what I'm looking for, to get back on track and free myself from whatever has held me back all these years.. to the point of having me drink vinegar :)So, thank you in advance for everytime you will help me out and make me feel understood.____________ _________ _________ _________ _________ _________ _ Envoyez avec Yahoo!
