Guest guest Posted November 25, 2011 Report Share Posted November 25, 2011 I really like your post and everyone's responses to it. My inclination is to not talk about it at all. I'm royally sick of " diet talk " , but I guess I've told a few people that I'm not deleting, and I did lend my Intuitive Eating book to a friend, who's husband wanted to talk to me about it because he said it's getting HIM in a lot of trouble, and he really wanted MY take on all of it, which I shared with him. But then I haven't lost any weight either, so am still " substantial " . What a totally messed up society we live in, if everyone is expected to " struggle " with what they eat. Crazy. Tilley > > Wanted to comment on this. I've been following IE since May 15th and have even recently lost a close friendship over choosing it as my path of recovery. I don't know what the problem is but in my OA-stringent ex-friend's opinion if you were eating even a little of " forbidden foods " > each day, you are failing at recovery and on a path of self-destruction. Kate, you put it perfectly, if you're not " suffering " from dieting/trying to lose weight, you are not taken seriously. It's sad, but for some reason we are socialized to consider dieting a way of life… > and heaven forbid we find another way where we can actually enjoy what we want to eat without suffering! > > Kerry > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
