Re: wanting to reward myself with food!

...I ended up making it through the night..tiny bit of pasta, but the really good

kind with

cheese etc,

Hey, good for you, e! That is great news.

I have had similar experiences, where I have had a rough day and decided to give

myself

permission to have a binge. I would prepare a favorite binge food, sit down,

preparing to " pig

out " , and be amazed to discover that when I reached the point of fullness, I

just couldn't

force myself to continue eating.

I guess as time goes on, we learn to really enjoy the feeling of eating only to

fullness, and not

to the point of feeling bloated and sick and fatigued after a meal. So our

bodies really send

us strong signals not to continue eating beyond that point.

Pretty cool, right? :-)
