- About Me:
- I am attempting to become a normal eater. You know the people, who eat when they are hungry but don't overeat and stay slim consistently? That's what I want to be! It's been about 10 years since I approached food this way and I am excited to get back there.

What I've Learned So Far...
~I know when I am done eating because I all of a sudden I start thinking about whether or not I am full. Sometimes I will continue eating anyway. :)
~Depriving myself of food I want and need only makes me want to rebel by eating as much of it as I can get my hands on.
~All the things I don’t like about myself were born from the need to survive and the need to protect myself. They are not bad.
~Emotions can be strong and make me want to eat, but if I let myself feel them, they will fade with time.
~For me, dieting is not the answer. Deprivation only makes me want to eat.
~I eat when I am procrastinating. Better to do something about it than eat!
~I crave carbs but it’s not always what I need.
~Food tastes better when I am hungry.
~It feels good not to constantly have to write down what I eat.
~I like eating what I want to eat.

Lots of challenges in the last week
Anyway, despite the challenges, the one bright light is that I haven't turned to food like I used to. I have still felt in control and hadn't overeaten. So… Continue
