My mother is an intuitive eater. All her sisters are also. But I am

a compulsive eater like my father.

Well I have been studying my

mother and her sister (when she is visiting).

They live exactly the way the I.E. book

teaches. The funny part is that they use the diet mentality

when they talk about people who need

to lose weight. For instance, when my aunt and I

were deciding where to eat lunch Saturday

she wanted to eat Italian and then apologized

thinking that I couldn’t eat there.

My father has dieted his

whole adult life and has kept most of the weight off but fights his addiction

continually and is still slightly

overweight. He cannot comprehend I.E. I try and try to help him

to understand it, but all he can think is

low-fat.

Another thing I observed about my

mother and her sisters is that they are not sedimentary. They keep busy.

And that is what I have been trying to

change about myself.
