not sure if this will trigger. sorry if it does...
i was just wondering if the food pyramid is triggering for anyone else. my therapist gave me a copy of it to help me get used to normal portion sizes. but it makes me want to lose weight and start dieting again. ugg.

Why would the food pyramid want you to gain more weight? When you look at the pyramid, realize that you don't have to eat everything that is on it. You can always select the variety of foods they provide on the food pyramid to start you off to a more healthy you.

you have a bad nutritionist if she is still giving you a food pyramid.... they changed it about a month ago to the myplate program which I find very useful in not being a trigger. Seriously they should know that by now... we have a company nutritionist and she had realyed that they literally were given 30 days to change over each program to the new way or they would lose their credentials.

she's not my nutritionst, she's my therapist. and she was unaware that they had changed things.

Im ready to start...
