Sesion 7 ~ Tutti Frutti

We sat at Tutti Frutti eating our much desired breakfast and while we were discussing the research marian had found from mindless eating, we realized we put urselves in a situation where we wanted to get out of our pattern and analyze the way we were eating and test ourselves at how intune we were with our bodies. It turns out, not much at all. We decided to drop our forkes and wait, just talk and see what happens… well the wait and diverting our attention to something else, helped make us realize that we did reach the “ I’m not hungry anymore” stage that I don’t think we rely on enough. The big test is how we would fell once we stood up, and I don’t believe I’ve ever felt able to stand up after a big meal except at that moment. When we sat back down we looked at what was left in our plates, and it was mostly the junk, and our glass of cocktail juice. Remembering the 20%less food and 20% more healthy choices, and well, we drank it. But while we looked at our plates, and the thought of having to not waste the leftovers, and the thought of having the carry the doggy bag all the way back to mili’s house and knowing we still had errands to run, made it easier for us to just finish the plate after all. Surely enough we were very full and standing up was gonna have to wait. Yes we did feel awful, but considering we were not planning on eating this kind of breakfast every day didn’t make us feel guilty, instead it helped us make acknowledgements of what it is in our plates that can change how much we eat. It isn’t just the size but the shape.
