I seem to be cruising along happily in IE at the moment so I've ramped it up a notch.
I'm eating from Stomach Hunger more often from Mouth Hunger and I'm getting better about eating what I want BUT.... I'm eating past the point of satisfaction. I think I'm tipping over into pretty full most of the time. This is fine I know, I used to eat until I was fit to pop but I want to experiment and see how little I need to eat.
Now, before anyone panics and starts lining me up as a future anorexic, let me just stress that I am a/ eating when I'm hungry and b/ thinking long and hard about what I really want to eat.
And I'm eating until I'm satisfied, so I am no where near starving myself.
But it is shocking how little I seem to need 
I find it unsettling as part of me still thinks that food is how I care for myself, but I'm beginning to realise that listening to my body's needs is far more important than shoving food into it each time I get a feeling.
Today I went to Costas and felt like apple pie. They didn't have anything there but I thought a blueberry muffin might do the trick. I had a small latte as well and cut the muffin into 4. I ate 1 1/4 than half another 1/4 and got a satified signal, loud and clear. So I finished my latte and left more than half my muffin behind. It wasn't really very nice tbh.
I still wanted Apple pie and icecream so I got one from budgens and had a slice the next time I was hungry but i think what I actually wanted was apple crumble-Oh well! The only ice cream we had in was 33% less fat stuff too. I could def taste the difference.
One last thing- I also went into the local running shop to get fitted for some shoes to do the Moonwalk in. They were pretty nice about it actually. It can't be everyday they have someone my size come lumbering in-LOL. I'm pretty proud of myself as I even went on the treadmill and got videoed so they could check the way I walked. It was pretty shocking footage but I'm working hard on accepting my body as it it, and I didn't cringe or apologise for my size.I've got weird feet so I'm going back in a couple of weeks to see if they have some shoes in that might fit me better.
Anyhow, Baby is down for a sleep. DH working from home so I'm going to seize the moment and go walk the hound.
