Dear Andrea,
I really want to participate in your program and I don’t have any expectations because I’ve had so many weight management experiences that I call failures, that I’m not yet feeling confident that I can change the habits of a lifetime. Surprisingly I still have some hope (or is that naivete) which is why I am enrolling in your course.
I think the hope comes from the fact that you have been there, that you seem caring and honest and that you are not proposing a never-ending diet. I find that diets or any form of restricted eating brings out the worst in me, it’s as if eating is my one treat left, especially when life is full of work and drudgery and the thought of having to give up the foods I love is unbearable.
I love the idea of intuitive eating and at the same time it’s frightening to think about eating anything I want. I don’t have your confidence – I’d be scared to do the same experiment for fear of turning into a huge blob – so I’m glad you’ve experimented for us and I want the assisted support version of the course please.
What it will mean to me if your course is helpful? My dream is that I can learn to make peace with my body and my desire to eat badly, so that I can live life without constantly thinking about food – now that would be a great goal to achieve.
Cheers,
Sharon M
