Re: Re: introducing myself

[Guest guest]

Well Katcha My first trip went well IE wise and I didn't worry so much about my eating although my signals were off because of the time change I honored my hunger and things went pretty well. The second trip I didn't do so well and I felt like I overate a lot mostly because I was eating foods I have not had in a very long time and my entire family was constantly either bringing food to us or taking us out to eat. I had some family who acted like the food police and I have discovered that makes me rebel and eat more. I also had a one family member who has gone to extremes to lose weight having an operation and that did make me happy that I didn't have to go through any of those things. One good point about the whole thing though was that I discovered that my body gets very uncomfortable at a 7 and I don't want to eat that much again. I also found out that my body feels very uncomfortable at a 7 is because most of the time during my second trip I was eating when not not hungry just to be polite. This politeness eating is a hard habbit to break when you grew up and still live in the south. All in all I have to say it wasn't too bad IE wise except I have to spend some time posting to deprogram myself from diet mentality which I was exposed to a lot during vacation. Glad to be back. Eva
