Re: Intuitive Eating & Diabetes Management
Delighted to see this on the agenda!!! Thanks to Intuitive Eating, I'm 55 lbs. lighter than my top weight in college, and I've kept extra pounds off for over 35 years. It works, it lasts, and it's not about will power. It IS about enjoying and savoring what you eat. It actually gets easier over time, unlike diets. Have a wonderful session!
