It is great when we start to hear and listen to our bodies.

: I always thought that I would never
: get used to eating at the same
: time every day. I remembered
: reading about that in the book
: when I first found the program and
: thought - there is no way in heck
: that will ever happen. But now I
: am amazed that my body seems to
: know the time before I do. Telling
: me to get ready because mealtime
: is getting close.

: Today I was out weeding the garden. I
: am not sure how long I was outside
: or even what time it was. I still
: had a little bit of weeding to do
: but my body was telling me that
: mealtime was getting close and
: that I needed to just stop where I
: was at and go inside (I was not
: feeling hungry but my body just
: sort of knew). I walked inside and
: it was 12:20 (mealtime is 12:30
: for me). I smiled to myself and
: shook my head. I think it's pretty
: amazing. What I thought would be
: impossible just seems to happen
: day after day. And what a
: difference it makes.

: Now if my body and brain only liked
: what I ate today for lunch would
: have been wonderful but it did
: not. Everything was program
: friendly but note to self. Don't
: eat that again.
