Guest guest Posted December 30, 2011 Report Share Posted December 30, 2011 For those that don't know me, my name is Alana and I have been doing IE for 4-5 years. I really got comfortable with IE, maybe a little too comfortable. I think I thought I didn't need to focus or work at it anymore. I started a new job in September and while it all has been a very positive move for me and not very stressful, it was still stressful. I stepped away from being aware of my body and being mindful. And then we've had about 5 potlucks and a cookie exchange. They have been lots of fun but I have been eating just ybecause the food is there. So I have returned to the group as it does help keep me focused on IE, body awareness and being mindful. And I am returning to asking my body if its hungry prior to just blindly eating. While IE isn't work or a struggle like the diet world, it does still take being constantly aware of our bodies, mind (those voices in our heads) and our emotions. So here is a New Years Toast to the re-committment to IE and mindfulness. Cheers! Alana Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
