Guest guest Posted June 23, 2010 Report Share Posted June 23, 2010 Hello, Thank you for letting me join your group. I have spent most of my life significantly over weight. I first learned about what was called "Humming" in the 70's. My best friend lost 80 pounds following this plan. It was basically, eat what ever you want when ever you want and stop when you are satisfied. We both realized that diets don't work. For many reasons I did not loose weight even though I was the one who introduced this philosphy to her. While we were in nursing school, she gained back the 80 pounds and I just gained more weight. Once she gained the weight back we were back on the diet road without success. I am a compulsive emotional overeater. I have not wanted to deal with what bothers me. It could be anything. I have learned to use food to take care of my life. My excuses need to be gone. My health is suffering and I know that the only way for me to be sucessful is to follow the intuitive eating plan. Thanks for being there, Lynne Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted June 23, 2010 Report Share Posted June 23, 2010 Lynne,What a relief it must be to give up dieting! Three cheers for you. You are taking the first step to begin a new exploration of what you want from life, along with taking care of your health. That's a success already.KateHello, Thank you for letting me join your group. I have spent most of my life significantly over weight. I first learned about what was called "Humming" in the 70's.
