What NM is to me.

I went to some meetings at another facility and saw some folks I hadn't seen in a while. A couple of folks were very complimentary in my apperance, and wanted to know what Diet I was on. I told them about it and that I would send a link when I returned to my office. By the time I returned to my office, I had a reminder email sent. I replied with a link, and what I thought was a great explaination to NM for me. I thought I would share.

"If I wasn't trying to loose weight, I would allow myself to eat past full, and what ever I wanted when ever I wanted. (I was actually waking up in the middle of the night to eat chocolate!) When I would try to diet, I would think I had to cut out everything with flavor, and in turn, wouldn't take in enough calories, put my body into starvation mode, and gain weight.... This site is like a road map. Tells you where you are, where you want to be, and how to get there. Yep I take detours once in a while, but I know how to get to where I want to go, and sometimes I take the long scenic route, and sometimes I'm on the expressway. That's what I mean about it's not really a diet. I just know what I am doing when I eat now, and therefore call it eating with my eyes wide open."
