What a nice b-day present huh??? Sounds like you are doing very good with breast feeding and sticking with it. I know allot of people would of quit by now. I know almost actually how you feel about the flat nipples. With my first baby I had them and didn't know what to do. I ended up only feeding her for 2 wks because of this and other problems. I hope it gets better with you and you new son.

Guest guest Posted July 28, 2011 Report Share Posted July 28, 2011 Hi,My name is and I just joined the list. I am so excited about this approach. For years I have dieted . . . until a few weeks ago when I realized I've been in the diet mode for about 40 years. My first diet began in seventh grade when my brother said, " All the cool girls at school diet. " The diet mode hasn't served me well. I've either been getting ready to diet (and eating like there was no tomorrow), dieting (counting calories, calculating points, or otherwise checking off boxes), or had just abandoned the diet (and eating like there was no tomorrow). Through the last couple of decades, I've lost about 65 pounds. None of these pounds came off because of those prescribed plans or programs. They came off slowly, mainly because of lots of exercise (which I love) and those on-and-off times when I'd focused on my hunger, eating what I really wanted to eat, being mindful . . . in other words, eating intuitively. I'd still like to eventually lose about 20 pounds, mainly for health reasons (blood sugar, cholesterol, etc.), but there's no rush. I am excited to get more in touch with the way I eat and feel. I look forward to reading your posts! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted July 29, 2011 Report Share Posted July 29, 2011 Hi, . I get anxious about my seeming inability to not lose weight, and for my health, I, too, must lose weight. or shall I say, instead of 'must,' that I 'need to' lose weight? But the reality of my desires sets in when thinking about or faced with food. That is why I feel like a minor victory broke when I was able to STOP EATING in a restaurant recently, because I realize I am no longer hungry and therefore do not need to eat. Yes, despite the fact that I PROBABLY AM GAINING WEIGHT even though I started out being overweight, I am learning some basic concepts (which is to stop eating when I recognize I am no longer hungry). It is very hard for me -- but that's life. TaiTo: IntuitiveEating_Support Sent: Thursday, July 28, 2011 9:12 PMSubject: New to the List Hi,My name is and I just joined the list.
