Guest guest Posted June 11, 2007 Report Share Posted June 11, 2007 sorry about what I just posted I accidentally hit send before I was finished it has been a long day anyway what I was saying is that I used to natraully do IE when I was younger before I knew that it was called IE my problem started when I got to college and had to eat fast because I only had a few minutes between classes. My whole system of eeating really got out of wack when i was dignosed with Graves disease and when its not in control you are always hungry so now that the disease is in control with medication I have to learn how to eat slowly and enjoy my food again. I find that it tastes better when i do that and also that I enjoy it more. I exercise 20 minutes once a day because i finally found a work out that I enjoy. I have also discovered that since there is no more bad food I don't want the food that once was considered bad and eat more healthy food. EvaSee what's free at AOL.com.

Guest guest Posted June 11, 2007 Report Share Posted June 11, 2007 Marina I also find myself eating the previously " banished " food at a faster rate. It amazes me how much better the food tastes once I get myself to slow down and taste the food. I have been doing this for 1 1/2 months. I have had some really positive moments and I had some moments where I rebel against intuitive eating like a spoiled child. This does not make sense to me as I logically know IE is a much wiser way for me to live, both with my eating and my life. I hope you stick with this through the ups, the downs and those scary moments where this all seems so foreign and against the main stream of our society. In the past I would of tried another diet by now but this time I must of hit rock bottom because the thoughts of diets are very fleeting and short lived. Enjoy your journey.
