not a ton to report here. still learning, still going through the process step by step.

i am getting the hang of it though. i think i am still eating more than absolutely necessary...but i am getting better. nighttime still seems to be my problem time, so i am still working on that.

today's menu so far:
b- honey wheat english muffin w/honey peanut butter
s- banana
l- about 1.5 cups of green beans/corn and a turkey and cheese sandwich on whole grain bread

i'm thinking sweet potato fries for dinner. my sister...

arrggghhh, i fell victim to old habits again last night. a) it was nighttime and b) i had a HORRIBLE day

and gave in to the emotional eating. but not until it was night.

learning experience. this will all come natural eventually, but for now i am learning about myself. i will get this figured out. this nighttime eating has got to stop though. when i get home from work today, i am going to get my ie book out and reread some parts that i think will help me. i am sticking with this.

well, i certainly am learning things about myself through this process. i had a slight setback last night. i've always know this, but it is becoming extremely evident to me now - i am a nighttime snacker. i don't know what is so different about night...maybe because i'm not busy like i am at work. i ate much more than i needed to to feel satisfied last night.
i had a panini for dinner, which was fine. a couple hours later i was a little hungry, so i made some sweet potato fries. i definitely didn't need a whole sweet potato to be not hungry anymore - so that's a good lesson...

today has been pretty good so far. i am really trying to listen to my body and figure out what it wants.

my dad made us french toast for breakfast. nothing fancy - just bread dipped in egg with some spices. he always made it for us growing up, i love it.

i had a banana a couple of hours later.
when i got hungry again around noon, i had a little bit of macaroni and cheese that my sister made with some crackers. i stopped when i was satisfied...i ate SO much less than i would have in the past. i would have thought "well, i'm eating mac and cheese...i...

intuitive eating - my journey

Posted 10-31-2009 at 09:02 PM by haystar

i finished the book today. i did well yesterday with listening to my hunger and stopping when i was satisfied. today...i fell back into the diet backslash and fell victim to the last supper mentality. i knew going into this that i would have setbacks...it is part of the process of relearning to trust yourself with food. i don't think that all the halloween candy around the house helped either!

i have a renewed spirit though. i've read through several ie threads here, and things are just starting to click. my relapse today wasn't even nearly as bad as those...
