I love that 'logic' ! A New Years resolution to NOT diet! What a

fabulous reaffirmation of our IE journey.

Yay !I also found that I had to eliminate " gossip " type magazines, People and the like, because the flaunting of an unattainable ideal, for me, kept me mired in diet mentality.

A nice side benefit to my wallet as well!Best,Abby

This is HUGE to me. I find myself cringing at the checkout counter when I see

all the near-anorexic stars striking sexy poses next to diet-related headlines.

Not b/c I want to be like them anymore, but b/c I wonder how many thousands of

women have looked at that particular magazine and started yet another

self-defeating mental script. Thankfully, IE has left me with no reason to even

skim the headlines anymore in search of a new diet or dieting tip!

unending advertisement for diet mentality, as we know! I previously had

subscribed to @ 4 different magazines...eliminated a couple last year and then

kept a couple that I thought related to " exercise " ....only to see them again for

what they were...DIET POLICE.
