"That's my tendency too which I was I wanted to bring it up. :)"
IE CertifiedKatcha - IEing since March 2007 replied to Natalie Ann's discussion Soaking it all in
"Welcome Natalie. I second your idea about tackling diet mentality first. Its the real boogie man that haunts our efforts thru ALL of the IE Principles. Glad to see that you have been reading here, have you looked at -

Finally IECarolyn replied to Evelyn's discussion Emotional Eating
"Evelyn,
Certainly I can relate! When eating when not hungry for emotional reasons is the regular practice, we have that as our go-to cycle. When we start to employ IE and learn about other reasons to eat, like hunger and satiation, food no longer…"

"Thank you Eeza and thank you for the tip, you are right - I may be trying to tackle a bit too much and that reminder is really appreciated. I have a tendency to do that. :)"
IE CertifiedEeza--Moderator and IE Counselor replied to Natalie Ann's discussion Soaking it all in
"Welcome, Natalie! Thank you for sharing your story with us. IE can be challenging and it is worth it. I think you're starting point is a good one. Also, you seem to be tackling a few of the principles rather than all at once. And…"

Soaking it all in
Hello IE community, it's really wonderful that this place exists. I've been lurking for about a week having just finished the IE book and now mid-way through Health at Every Size and it's all making so much sense to me!!The other morning I woke up and realized how very simple it is. All this time I've been chasing a certain weight to feel better about myself, beating myself up because I could never maintain it and then I just realized... why does it matter what the scale says? I don’t need to…See More
IE CertifiedEeza--Moderator and IE Counselor replied to Natalie's discussion Questions about hunger & schedule
"1) I would need more information. If it's only a few hours between meals, then you may have just eaten enough to hold you over for longer. If it's been a long time, then maybe you're missing the hunger signal.
2) I need to be…"

Questions about hunger & schedule
So several questions on hunger:1) I am eating to Level 6-7 (or at least what feels like 6-7 at this early point), but what if I don't get hungry (Level 3) for the next meal? It's happened a few times where I just don't get hungry for dinner...and then it's time for bed & I'm still not hungry. Should I just go to bed? Or eat a little something first? Not sure.2) How should I work on dealing with the combo of eating when hungry & a sometimes very busy schedule? I know there's a bit in…See More

"Thank you so much for this, it gives me hope for my future with IE!"
IE CertifiedEeza--Moderator and IE Counselor replied to Sheri's discussion Learned something new....and it isn't pretty.
"I think many of us have those ah-ha moments with IE. You discovered that you are using alcohol to de-stress rather than dealing with the underlying issue. My big ah-ha moment was even realizing that I was an emotional eater!"
IE CertifiedEeza--Moderator and IE Counselor replied to Evelyn's discussion Emotional Eating
"Yup! I have never been a stress eater. I lose my appetite instead because my stomach is in knots. Everyone is different, but this is how my body works."
IE CertifiedKatcha - IEing since March 2007 replied to Alex Lindstrom's discussion Which Voices do I Listen To???
"Wonderful example of how you know what YOU are. I too was never a 'runner' - my athletic 'skills' were more strength than speed in the sports I played (in my youth). Yes I could go distances, but it was always by pushing myself -…"
IE CertifiedKatcha - IEing since March 2007 replied to Sheri's discussion Learned something new....and it isn't pretty.
"Sheri, I have come to replace the term 'substance abuse' with 'substitution abuse'. It easier to see and blame the 'thing' (food/alcohol/drugs/emotions etc.) than to see WHY we gravitate towards those instead of dealing…"
IE ExploreAlex Lindstrom replied to Alex Lindstrom's discussion Which Voices do I Listen To???
"All of this I can't say I know for sure....what my identity *is*. My cultural programming is, "You are a child of God..." but I feel like that dismisses everything I want to do but can't seem to make happen. It is…"
