ALTHOUGH MOST DIETS vary acA cording to what foods you can Leat, they all follow the same principle of restriction: to lose weight, you need to eat less. Never mind that there's ample evidence that few diets work in the long term.
The now-trendy diet of intuitive eating is, in a sense, an anti-diet: followers base what they eat on how they feel, not on prescribed limits.
How Does It Work?
The concept was first proposed in the mid-1990s by registered dietitians Elyse Resch and Evelyn Tribole, who wrote the book Intuitive Eating. The first step is to reject the idea that you need to be on a diet to be healthy. Intuitive eaters work on getting in touch with their hunger levels, practising eating when they're hungry, paying attention to when they're full, and stopping when they're satisfied.
