Ever feel like you’re out of touch with your body’s signals when it comes to when to eat, what to eat, and/or how much?  Guess what? You are not alone. It’s especially common if you’ve been following diets or restrictive eating patterns to lose or gain weight, or because of participating in sports that emphasize a certain “look” or use weight classes. Which reminds me of when my son was on the wrestling team. He only wrestled for one season because he didn’t like skipping dinner the night before a match to ensure he made weight.

 Top 6 Ways to Sabotage Your Progress Over the Holidays: 1. Not eating all day before a party.
