Guest guest Posted August 1, 2011 Report Share Posted August 1, 2011 Hello Clare, Thank you for your advice and encouragements. I just realize that I was eating so incredibly fast, always doing something else. I need to give myself time to sit down and eat, which can be challenging with 2 kids. I made progress today, allowing myself to eat a croissant at a meeting. I would never even permit myself to look at it.I did eat carrots in the car, lol, but I really like them after working out for a reason or another.Take care, looking forward to knowing you better.Nat (Villager)To: IntuitiveEating_Support Sent: Monday, August 1, 2011 3:36:37 AMSubject: Re: Back on track Welcome Village I'm sure you will get some great support here. Why not start out just deciding to be kind to yourself about food - try to just eat when you are hungry and at the other times when you eat just be mindful about it with no negative judgments - and make sure you are eating food that you really want to eat! No more carrot and celery sticks - unless you desperately feel that that is what your body is asking for. Really savour your food. You've done it before you can do it again. Good luck - we'll look forward to hearing how you are getting on. Clare > > Hello, > I have been IE for a while in the past, through my last pregnancy which was perfect(and my beautiful baby boy too ) who is now 2 years old and now I am suffering from chronic yo-yo dieting again. I need to stop that because it is distressing me. I really want to get back on track and stop obsessing about dieting and food. I am a bit overweight (IMC 28) but I carry it well because I am tall. I am healthy and have zero health problem except the diet obsession! > I change diet every week or every three days, followed by a couple of days of really bad nutrition. I really need to stop that. The worst part is that dieting threaten my sobriety - I am an AA member since march. > Any advice would be appreciated. > I do have Tribole book Intuitive eating that I know pretty well as well as her cooking book. > Thanks for listening. > Villager > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
