Guest guest Posted August 22, 2008 Report Share Posted August 22, 2008 There were so many posts that stated what I wanted to say today that I didn’t know where to start. I think though I figured out something that has been confusing me. I have been on diets for so long, that I have come to rely on that mentality to tell me how much and what I should eat. Therefore I am relying on the previous knowledge and am incapable of figuring out on my own how much I should eat. I am so terrified of gaining an ounce. When I first started all this I still very strongly stuck to eating certain types of foods and certain amounts. Last week though I have found myself inching away from that though being almost petrified of letting go. I do have some medical conditions that are consequences of being overweight. So the thought of getting any larger is scary. But dieting won’t do any good either. Yes I will loose at first but then ... But then I read your posts and I am amazed that so many persons are going through the EXACT same thing I am, or pretty darn close. As Helene mentioned earlier we met on another site which we thought would be like IE, but instead it was WW disguised, in my opinion. Well as of today all my diet food is gone. I had cooked ahead. So I am starting fresh. I am going to try and learn to honor my hunger and try and figure this out. I just hope I can do it before I gain another 100 pounds.
