Shall we hold you upside down and shake this nonsense from your head or tap the wand 3x AGAIN! <BR/> People are different, very much so! Balance for me will not be balance for you which is why when we learn to listen well we can learn to follow our needs. Maybe at this point you need to say "oh be quiet" to the counter and "yes" to the wiser woman within that knows she deserves to eat and that it will keep you healthy long enough to take those hikes and enjoy life! It's the hi-pro glow we're shooting for! /*maryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05476646540007179475noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6561748834204284315.post-42474361944262438852007-05-23T16:09:00.000-04:002007-05-23T16:09:00.000-04:00I loved this post.

It was extremely interesitng and I agree with you. <BR/>Everyone's body is different, therfore having and "ideal" weight/size/etc... is almost irrational and impossible. <BR/>You go!Danyelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00926320991809933779noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6561748834204284315.post-37971231547852705332007-05-22T18:50:00.000-04:002007-05-22T18:50:00.000-04:00Hi Carrie, it's Lindsay from Gurze.

The other day I was thinking about making beaded jewlery to sell and then I opened your blog and saw you were doing the same thing. Very inspiring!meowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06506209046922198813noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6561748834204284315.post-81222965470554647492007-05-22T15:52:00.000-04:002007-05-22T15:52:00.000-04:00Hmm.

I feel like the small happinesses I have about my body are all due to these concepts.<BR/><BR/>I don't have an ED but just want to have a healthy lifestyle. I don't know how to do that without being very strict. I'm like an all or nothing person.Sarahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11813023808982058233noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6561748834204284315.post-50595691891311156962007-05-22T09:37:00.000-04:002007-05-22T09:37:00.000-04:00I think you really hit on it with "There's no magi...I think you really hit on it with "There's no magic number or formula."<BR/><BR/>People are terrified of not being in control. Formulas give us the illusion of control. "If I want to make X take this value, then all I have to do is input Y at this level." <BR/><BR/>Toss in the cultural obsession with food = morality, and how figure is one of the few things that it is PC to discriminate against, and its a "formula" for all kinds of bad things.<BR/><BR/>The concept that there is a single ideal anything that fits all people is pretty silly when examined. It works about as well as those "one size fits all" clothing items :PTomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10256002804183760178noreply@blogger.com
