Sometimes I feel like I am barely any better off than I was 6 months ago.
I realize that is not 100% true but I sure wish I was more ahead with body acceptance and IE. I wish I was at a mental place where thinking about HAES doesn’t make me a little nuts in [...]

I All Done, Mommy
Posted in Disorded Eating, HAES, Intuitive Eating on March 7, 2008 | 1 Comment »
Z and I had a fun day of shopping, riding a 2 level carousel (or “carouself” as she calls it), and sharing a bowl of ice cream. As we watched the carousel go around and around, we enjoyed spoonfuls of dulce de leche and brownie ice creams. Yum.
With several possible bites left in the [...]

I think I gained a bit of weight from our trip to Maine. I really don’t know if that is a fact - I am not weighing myself and my jeans fit fine. But my face looks bigger to me.
It makes me grumpy.
I am not at risk of giving up IE and jumping [...]
BMI vs. P.E.

A BMI bill passes but getting more P.E. in school doesn’t??!
I just do not get it.
Becoming a Morning Exerciser
Posted in HAES, Pilates, Workouts, Yoga on February 27, 2008 | 3 Comments »
In various stages of my adult life, I have flirted with becoming a morning exerciser. The only time I was consistent with it for a long time was when I was working full time, going to graduate school full time, had a crazy long commute (minimum car time with 2 hours a day), and [...]
Stupid Ad

JetBlue has a TV for every seat (loved that!). I watched a lot of the Food Network which was a first for me. I think I’ll check out some of those shows more regularly. Z enjoyed watching all of the meal prep as well.
Special K’s protein water ad was aired several times. [...]
Cake o’Rice
Posted in Foods I Like, HAES, Intuitive Eating on February 13, 2008 | 1 Comment »
Z is eating a brown rice cake slathered in almond butter right now (along with an apple and some grapes).
The rice cake looks good to me. With the almond (or peanut) butter on it.
I wouldn’t have touched a rice cake while dieting since it was a classic diet food. My rebellious side wouldn’t [...]
Obesity Bullshit ~ Ala Penn & Teller
Posted in Body Acceptance, Body Image, Fat Acceptance, HAES, Self-Esteem on February 11, 2008 | No Comments »
I finally got around to watching Penn & Teller’s Bullshit! show on obesity after reading about it on a couple of blogs. We actually get Showtime because of DH’s work (they pay for it - woot!) but I have never seen this show. I think I am going to let Tivo know that [...]
Chore

This morning I shared a delicious meal with Z at our favorite local diner. I wish all my meals were as satisfying. And it was diner food so not the epitome of health but I still walked away feeling good in my body - not low and weak like I am finding myself [...]
HAES
Posted in Body Acceptance, Body Image, Disorded Eating, Fat Acceptance, HAES, Intuitive Eating, Self-Esteem on January 29, 2008 | 3 Comments »
Still making crappy food choices. Not always but often enough. And I’m not feeling guilty because they are “bad” but because they make me feel tired and slow. I am somehow stuck here right now. I’d like to move beyond it. An occasional food/meal that makes me feel like yuck [...]
