Wind of change

[Guest guest]

Hi, guys.

Just wanted to share some success in the proccess of change with you:

3 days ago I understood that I really should legalize ALL food, no matter what

happens, while eating according to hunger and satiety clues.

Well...

The fist day I ate cheese-cake (amazing) + about 150gr chocolate (something I

never would afford myself before!) + a lot of potatoes (again, same story) and

meat, plus sugar in the tea (again, never alouded myself that unless in crisis

of sugar).

And all that while eating according to hunger and satiety (80% of the meals...

felt I overdid with the chocolate a bit...)

I felt unsecure about what would happen to my weight if I eat that much sweets

all day, I felt guilty and all the rest of the feelings I'm sure you know. But

everytime I was swept with these feelings I said to myself: I'm comitted to end

this deprivation inside my soul, I'm comitted to listening to my body's wishes,

I'm ready for a change, I'm ready to live more freely, to trust my body.

Guess what...

The next day I barely ate 1400-1500 kcal, and out of the sweets - only one small

candy. My body balanced itself!

And the funny thing - in these 3 days, alhtough I don't eat low-fat or low-sugar

products, I feel lighter, because I eat according to my body's wishes and not to

fulfil some deprivation! (except ofcourse for the first day

0. Each time I saw sweets in the last 3 days I felt a crave for them FROM THE

SOUL - which came out of deprivation. So I told myself: that's ok, you can have

them anytime you want if you're hungry and if your body REALLY wants them. And

not to lie to myself - I really did have them when I felt they would do my body

good.

I can't tell you it's perfect now, because I still haven't reached the point of

stopping eating when 80-90% full (so I won't overstalk myself), but I think the

courage to legalize sweets and high-fat products is a major step!

Hope it gives someone hope, because it did for me.

Hugs,

Ruty
