How do you Stop Calorie Counting?

[Guest guest]

The only way I ever lost weight in my whole life was to calorie count, but I

want to stop this " measuring " mentality that determines what I am allowed to

eat.

Just like some people see flowers and know each name, I see food, and know (or

want to know) the calories. I'm still living in the mentality that the food I

eat needs to pass the calorie test or I can't eat it.

Do you just " block out these thoughts as soon as they arise? or do substitute

it with another thought or question?

I can't shake myself out of this. I wish I never learned what the calories of

things were.
