17. 17 Say Goodbye to Diets Discover Intuitive Eating: A non-diet approach to weight management Intuitive eaters eat when they are hungry and stop when they feel satisfied. Intuitive eating or normal eating is not based on deprivation, calorie counting or making foods forbidden. It is based on making peace with food, making eating pleasurable and being in tune with your mind and body. Small children are usually quite good at letting us know when they are hungry and when they are full. We all had that ability at one time. The good news is that we can relearn how to become an intuitive eater. From: Intuitive Eating, by Evelynn Tribole and Elyse Resch
