Katcha - IEing since March 2007 replied to Sayed 's discussion 20 Year Old - Calorie counting for the past 4 years"Sayed, dropping diet mentality IS something that is 'simple' but certainly NOT 'easy'!! Most of us find that we will have moments of this sneaking up on us from time to time as we travel our IE journeys (a life long process at…"
Sayed replied to Sayed 's discussion 20 Year Old - Calorie counting for the past 4 years"Thanks for not giving up on me, Katcha :) I know that I really want to drop the diet mentality and get my relationship with food back to normal again. However, I can't seem to drop the diet mentality. For example, If I "over-eat" at…"
Katcha - IEing since March 2007 replied to Eve Cerda's discussion ever feel like you are eating too much?"Sounds like an excellent insight for yourself Eve. Did clarifying that help you to see this situation differently? Did doing that help you to think of such an reaction in another way that could be a better reaction/response for you when this…"
Eve Cerda replied to Eve Cerda's discussion ever feel like you are eating too much?"It's more of a thinking I'm eating too much because I stop eating when I'm full. But I think my diet mentality is basically telling me no don't eat more than a small portion. "
Katcha - IEing since March 2007 replied to Katcha - IEing since March 2007's discussion Excellent and Inspiring Quotes from this Forum's Posts.""It seems to me that the word 'control' has many meanings even for each of person! Its could be rather like the word 'hunger' which seems to imply foods and eating but also slips into desires and needs that are not food…"
Katcha - IEing since March 2007 replied to Lori's discussion Making Peace With Cheez-Its, But Having Reservations. Please Help!"Lori I really like how Kathy shared her experiences with you. That seems to be a common reaction for those who have given this part of the process a decent go.
What I might add regarding the thoughts that came to me as I read your post is - 1) the…"
Katcha - IEing since March 2007 replied to Alesia's discussion Self control?"Makes excellent sense Heleen! And I want to add how inspiring your example is too. Being able to 'brake' during a less than desirable course of action is so very wonderful and helpful for one too. For me using awareness was a working way…"
Katcha - IEing since March 2007 replied to JESSICA PURITZ's discussion IEing in Spain and VISITING FAMILY"Jessica - what a fabulous experience living in another culture and delight change/option for eating too. I had become aware of the meal preferences of Spain when I e-chatted with a person who does live in Spain (last I heard in Madrid too). It seems…"
Katcha - IEing since March 2007 replied to Eve Cerda's discussion ever feel like you are eating too much?"Eve, when you say you feel like you are eating too much is that a reflection of over full stomach or actual food reactions from your body? Or is this more a thinking - aka mental judgement/assessment - on your part? If you had lots of previous diet…"
Lori replied to Lori's discussion Making Peace With Cheez-Its, But Having Reservations. Please Help!"Thank you for your reply, Kathy. I feel so much better about going to the store for the Cheez-Its after reading your post. Now that I think about it, you are right. The Cheez-Its WILL become "normal and kind of ho-hum" after some time. The…"
Kathy H replied to Lori's discussion Making Peace With Cheez-Its, But Having Reservations. Please Help!"I, too, am struggling with this. I have been known for years as the one who "eats healthy" by friends, family and coworkers. For the past two months, however, I have been buying processed foods galore. Yes, several packages at a time, just…"
Lori posted a discussionMaking Peace With Cheez-Its, But Having Reservations. Please Help!
I have been working through "legalizing" a list of foods that have an emotional charge for me. Anyhow, I've done a great job working through many foods, if I do say so myself. I am finally ready to face my most scary food, Cheez-It crackers.
