    Success/struggles of the week: working on not over indulging on snacks and getting some exercise. Small steps, but not a bad week. That trend number is so slow to go down, lol. Just read an article on eating disorders, https://theconversation.com/eating-disorders-are-hard-to-overcome-but-ditching-diets-is-crucial-96078? And honestly, really, those are the suggestions? According to this i have an eating disorder, i step on the scale daily, i read nutrition labels, i control what i eat, darn! really??? Where will i, or probably most of us will be if we did what article suggest? Jeesh, idk. It's depressing, actually. I don't think of myself as the one with eating disorder, i eat great variety of food from all food groups, i eat healthy, three meals plus snacks and try to be reasonable, but it still falls into disordered thinking. I know it won't work for me, that's what got me to be fat most of my life, bunch of rubbish, imho.

    Yeah @icemom011 I read that too as it was in a community thread and I reacted just like you.

    Felt to me like recommendations meant for people with UNDEReating disorders was presented by the writer as if it was for everyone, in order to further normalize not paying attention to weight.
