Re: Do you only eat when hungry?

[Guest guest]

I know I do eat when I am not 'truly' (body) hungry, but so do

'normal' eaters too ;-) Its easy to think in terms of 'black and

white' - ONLY eating when 'hungry' can be come an absolute 'rule' to

which you could start rebelling to (a la dieting). The trick seems to

be to 1) become aware of when/why you are eating and 2) choosing to

eat based upon body hunger signals (as you reacquaint with these).

Keep up the good work and BEST to you - Katcha

Thank you for that... It is so easy to become blinded by old rules
