Soooo uncomfortably full!

[Guest guest]

I am posting all over the place today... : )

In the past I usually ate way beyond the satisfaction point, usually to

the point of being uncomfortably full. But I was fine with that.

Probably because I was numbing myself and was not truely present in the

act.

Now that I am being present in these physical feelings and when I do

eat beyond my satisfaction point I am incredibly uncomfortably full.

Like way worse of a feeling than I ever recall.

Like tonight my Mom made one of my favorite meals and I totally ate way

too much of it. PLUS I ate one of my favorite flavors of icecream

afterwards. I even knew when I had hit my satisfaction point but I

pushed it because it tasted so good. Ah!

Now I am sooooo uncomfortably full. Bloated, the whole shabang. But the

thing is 1. I did not eat as much as I usually or can do and 2. this is

definitely not the first time I have eaten beyond my satisfaction

point.

Obviously I need to really focus on this feeling so I can instill IE

into more of my life. I feel like this is apart of the process. But I

just thought the whole thing was really interesting and curious.

I just learned a very valuable IE lesson tonight: If I want to eat

everything I love I need to stop when I reach the point of

satisfaction. If I don't then eating the extras like icecream will

always result in feeling physically sick afterwards.

Any thoughts?
