I am not sure how I am supposed to start this. There are a bunch of

messages that came to me, last night and more, today. One asks me to

introduce myself. I am not sure if this is where I am supposed to do

that or not.

I am to do that and hope it is the right thing to do.

I am 67 years old---68, next month. I been on and off of diets since I

was 13. Always losing a littel and gaining it back. I lost significant

amounts of weight twice. Once about 35 years ago, lost 110 pounds and

over a period of time, gained it back with an additional 40. The second

time, about 4 years ago, 75 pounds. I've gained about 56 of it back.

I have been reading lots of books about not dieting. A friend I met at

another website told me about the book " Intuitive Eating " . Recently, she

told me about this on line place where we could talk to each other.

I have been working at listening to hunger and satisfaction for about two

months. It is a process. I threw my scales out over a year ago. I was

weighed at the doctors a couple of months ago, so I have an idea of my

present weight. I am hoping to make peace with my body and with foof and

with eating. I don't care if I lose any weight. I would love to lose

weight----but not if I am going to gain it back. I am so tired of

dieting and I hate the thing of losing weight and gaining it back and the

way people look at me and the thoughts that go through my mind about what

they must be thinking.

I am an attorney, a public defender. I love my job. It is hard work,

but very interesting and I love to be around attorneys.

My name is Helene.
