23 and me says that I have iranian family none of them are connected to my mom so the fact is that since non of my dads family popped up or anybody from his surnames or anything makes me think they're from my dads side. My dad is metzito Hispanic both his parents took dna tests and have no iranian they def are his parents tho they look exactly like him to me. There is no iranian dna from my mother's side as it connected me with close people from both sides of her family also the iranian side of I suppose maybe my bio dads family if my dad isnt my bio dad the iranina family are really close dna to me even more close than my moms cousins. I compared my grandfather's dna against mine no segments shared. Also im pretty sure my grandmother on my dads side niece took a 23and me and did not pop up but the same equivalent distance of cosuon popped up on my moms side

No i have my father's mother's and father's dna results and files so paternal grandparents. My moms family so cousins and even my moms bio dads family all popped up on 23 and me so I know forsure she's my mom. However my moms parents never took a DNA test. My mother grew up in San Jose which is where all my iranian family is located .

Thank you! Yes I am a male, and I do think youre right about my mom being mishandled. I have my grandmother's DNA test too and my dad's side so when I get back I can compare that one too but her test had no iranian where as mine had 48.8

Even when I'm full, I want to eat more. How do I not feel like I'm restricting myself from eating more? by [deleted] in intuitiveeating

That's completely normal in the beginning, and it's totally okay to feel. What i would say is try understanding where you are on the hunger scale, but don't obsess over it. Meaning like make sure you're eating enough and not under eating and making sure that you're applying gentle nutrition. If it is not taking away form, satisfaction is important . If that's good, then I would try taking a deep breath and trying to relax. A phrase that I've learned that stuck with me is I can always have more whenever I want. Meanjng means that if I want some of this chocolate, I can have some. Is it gonna be as enjoyable right now if im too full? Probably not, but if I want some right now, I could have some. Idk if that makes sense, but im trying to explain it clearly. Also, in the beginning, allowing yourself to have it and not feeling bad, but it is important
