Guest guest Posted March 4, 2010 Report Share Posted March 4, 2010 Hi, I certainly agree with you, McKella! I had somewhat of a similiar experience. Recently a group of my former co-workers and I got together for lunch. One of the ladies has an absolutely adorable and charming four-year-old daughter. Since I'm still an IE newbie, I thought it might be interesting to watch her eat. Her mother ordered her meal, she ate until she was satisfied, and then went back to playing. I think (and hope) maybe her mom is training her to be an intuitive eater because, as might have happened when we were kids, her mother didn't force her to sit until she cleaned her plate.

Guest guest Posted March 4, 2010 Report Share Posted March 4, 2010 I am completely agree with all here. My mother used to teach me be intuitive eater until she passed away and the foster mother ruined it all. Right now I am look at my sister who is truly intuitive eater and that alone had inspired me and remember what my mother once taught me as one. Eliza > > Hi, > > I certainly agree with you, McKella!

Guest guest Posted March 4, 2010 Report Share Posted March 4, 2010 Sohni, I'm still giggling about your comment that your sons eat like wolves! But they are still "pups"! I'm sure you've done a lot more good parenting to your sons, besides not passing on food issues, than you realize right now! Have a good evening! Best wishes, Jeanne Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 5, 2010 Report Share Posted March 5, 2010 Jon, I remember reading that if you leave kids alone and allow them to listen to their body signals, they will get all the nutrition their little bodies need in the long run. Kudos to you and your wife for being aware and allowing your daughter to become an intuitive eater!!! Jeanne Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
