So much time, so little food...

[Guest guest]

What in the heck are we supposed to do with all of this time spent "not eating?" Big laugh, please. If I really follow the intuitive eating plan, I am not spending very much of my day eating, planning to eat, planning (hoping, praying) NOT to eat, etc. I know. I might be feeling a little silly, but maybe it's time to lighten up. This food issue really makes one dramatic (self-absorbed) and serious. Our bodies do not need much food. Maybe I should speak for myself. I am not at active 17-year-old, AND I am short. My body just needs enough to keep me going - and preferably to keep me healthy. I have not sworn off any foods, and I have enjoyed some "treats" since I started a few weeks ago, but I still choose to eat mostly healthy foods. As silly and nonchalant as I may sound, I am not finding this very easy. I am having my stuggles. After a short time of thinking, "Wow! This is it, and this is easy!" I have fallen back into some old ways, and I find it very confusing - and frankly, it makes me angry. I want easy. Well, this is my "issue." I have had it for decades, and I am willing to keep pushing forward to find peace with the food and weight. Waiting for true hunger,
