Loosening Control

It’s hard to let go.

Of what you know.

And trust your body.

To go with the flow.

What food will you feel like?

How much do you need?

Should you be eating that?

Where will this lead?

The sense of loss of control.

Of the food and the scales.

Of not knowing the way.

What if it fails?

What IF it fails?

What does that even mean?

Aren't you already,

Struggling daily it seems?

Calorie counting.

Confused about food.

Trying diet after diet.

With a rollercoaster mood.

Intuitive Eating.

Health At Every Size.

Embracing body diversity.

All sounds pretty wise?

So what will it be?

Another diet? Or no?

Perhaps 'loosening the control'

Is the way to go?
