What the participants have to say about the Pounds for Poverty program

by Participant

I was writing a friend and I told her that I was feeling much more in control of my eating. Then I realized that wasn’t quite right. I am feeling that my eating is less in control of me.

I used to try to control my eating with will power, which took a lot of effort because my urges to eat were pretty overwhelming. Sometimes they still are, but now most of the time they don’t feel so overwhelming. I am losing that automatic hand to mouth response. It doesn’t feel like I’m having to use willpower.
