Re: Principle #3 - Make Peace With Food

[Guest guest]

Tilley,

That's a wonderful description of how to eat intuitively at a party. It just so

happens I'm off to one tonight, so I'm going to remember how you described your

experience of choosing exactly what your body wanted to eat.

Good for you.  I hardly ever get dessert in a restaurant because I am full when I get to that point.  I keep saying I am going to go for dessert only.  Or dessert first and take the entree home.  Sometimes I think te cycle has to be broken.  I congratulate you on your progress. Sandy

 

I really liked Tilley's " party report, " too!

We went out to dinner last night with my husband's poker buddies and all the wives/girlfriends. I was jealous because it seemed everyone ordered entrees that came in much bigger servings than mine, but I had ordered a filet steak and crab cake, and the portions were small. I decided to eat slowly and make up for it with a major brownie bowl or something. But when the server came around asking about dessert, I found I didn't need it. Thought about getting it but thought how uncomfortably stuffed I'd feel and.... big coup.... did not order dessert in a restaurant because I was already satisfied!!!!! I would have regretted eating it (would have felt sick) but I did not regret *not* having had it. Yay! It's starting to kick

in!Ellie

 

Tilley,Great work! I love how positive your review of the party was. Especially that you gave yourself a pat on the back for eating [only] a cupcake when you weren't hungry because it was a party, and if you hadn't been so permissive, it seems you would've eaten more. I think this is AWESOME!

and thinking about having your favoarites on hand. And deciding what your

favorites really, really are. I like that. Sandarah
