Geneen Roth suggests food journaling as part of the Intuitive Eating process. That freaks me out. But The Rotund’s recent “flogging” has put that journaling thought once again in my head.
I have decided that although writing down the food I eat makes me feel queasy and a bit “diety in the head” that [...]

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. [...]

So yesterday I was eating at our favorite local diner with Z and my parents. My stepdad says to Z, near the end of the meal, “Tell your mother to finish her lunch”. I responded “I am finished” and he looked at me shocked. He then told me I “barely touched it” [...]

So since my breakfast post, I have come to the realization that I am not hungry first thing in the morning. News to me! But every morning since that day I have waited for hunger to arrive - usually 90 minutes or so after waking. I may have some hot tea before [...]

I am a Should Person. I should myself a lot. I should eat this because it’s healthy. I should workout because I am a fat, lazy slob if I don’t. I should do such and such because I just read that such and such provides so much happiness.
You get the point.

I think it is pretty typical of me to be hungry first thing in the morning. I say “I think” because this is an assumption I have always made. I have not sat down with this assumption every morning, yet, to see how my body feels. Well, until today. Today I [...]
