Intuitive Eating and Eating Disorders
I recently discovered "Intuitive Eating" and am reading the book. I actually stumbled across the topic on this forum when I made my last post about how frustrated and overwhelmed I was with "dieting" and like I don't know what can help me anymore.

Vacation and dieting
Anybody else trying to lose weight for an upcoming vacation? I've often done this type of thing in order to "look good" for a trip.
