I formed my own way of doing it, which wasn't 100% intuitive eating, but it wasn't rigid calorie counting, either. I explained it in a very detailed series of posts: https://www.runsforcookies.com/p/binge-eating.html (Katie Fosterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05534758066038264937noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4904256286279591900.post-56814964954535287452018-07-09T13:03:02.527-04:002018-07-09T13:03:02.527-04:00 Hi!

I am in the process of reading this book after seeing it on your site and so far I am really liking it.

It has made so much sense so far about why I over eat. The more I try to diet and restrict, the higher my weight goes.
