Re: New here....

[Guest guest]

hello Dawn. I am new here too. The whole concept of eating according to

what your body needs is going to be hard. I had no trouble getting rid

of diet books ect.. I usually throw them out when I figure out that

they are full of it. One thing that is hard for me is not adhering to a

strict schedule and throwing out my scale. I know in the end this will

be the best because I am an obsessive person.

good luck to you.

Welcome Dawn!

Baby steps are definitely a good place to start. When I started IE

in January of this year, my mantra was and still is " Just one foot in

front of the other " . Practicing IE for most of this year now has been

an amazing journey for me and being apart of this group has been

extremely helpful. I'm sure that this group can provide you as much

support as you found on the other groups...there is an phenomenal

group of individuals that connect here. I'm looking forward to hearing

more about your journey.
