Down 15 pounds!

I continue to use TheDailyPlate.com for calorie tracking and the suggestions of Intuitive Eating, along with a small amount of exercise when I have time and have consistently dropped 2lbs/week, while not feeling like I am dieting.
Amazing.

Intuitive Eating + DailyPlate.com

I wanted to say again how impressed I am by this combo of teaching and tracking for weight loss.
I have been doing this now for approx 6 wks and have lost 13 lbs, but most impressively I have not felt like I was dieting, and have not been hungry most of the time.
One of the tenets of Intuitive Eating is to "honor your hunger" and listen to what your body is telling you. When I have practice this, I have been consistently suprpised to find my caloric intake to be within my goals and this is evidenced by the consistent weight loss.
I have also stocked up on Power Bars, which are 240 cal each, and have a good carb/protein/fiber balance, in order to have a relatively healthy snack available at all times, and find myself eating 1-2 a day when I get hungry. Easy to eat and track.

Down 13 pounds since Jan 1!
