Thank you for sharing this Mosaic, I really enjoyed it. I have been thinking I am ready to begin YLD, but have not taken the steps to figure out how to get there. Soon I think.

: Last night in the chat, YLD, we were
: doing book study, and we were
: looking at this paragraph (page
: 35)

:

The key to success with this
: program in Your Last Diet!
: is to go slowly. Going slowly is
: not generally one of the strong
: suits of the sugar sensitive
: personality. You want to do it all
: and you want to do it now! This is
: why you have needed a new diet
: plan every month. But going fast
: wont work with thisplan. For
: Your Last Diet! to work,
: you have to create change at the
: pace that your body can deal with
: and accept at its cellular
: level

: Reminded me of how much I love YLD.
: I'd recommend it to anyone - if
: you have never been an ounce
: overweight in your life, its still
: full of steps info and discussion
: that is relevant to us all.

: Anyway,
:

Going slowly is not generally one
: of the strong suits of the sugar
: sensitive personality.

: I love this acknowledgement :h6) I
: always did, and sometimes still do
: :h19) like to approach things at a
: hundred miles an hour.... this
: reminder helps me to look at
: myself, smile, and be a bit more
: mindful.

: I remember that in the beginning I
: was in a hurry to get to step 7. I
: ticked all the boxes and didnt
: realise that living and
: experiencing the steps was
: powerful healing for me.

: My experience was that I thought
: going slow meant I had to sit on
: step one for ages. I thought it
: would take too long time wise and
: I was Impatient!

: That was not the case though :h10)
: Going slow in the end meant I had
: to learn a thing or two... how not
: to rush, how to listen ( in many
: ways) to communicate, be aware,
: take my time, just experience lots
: of things and not just the
: mechanics of ticking that box off
: as 'Done'

:

For Your Last Diet! to
: work, you have to create change at
: the pace that your body can deal
: with and accept at its cellular
: level

: I loved that part, made sense to me.
: I dont think it did in the
: beginning . I just couldnt get my
: head round it. My head was off
: trying to think step 7 things :h6)
: But it is making sense now about
: my body catching up with the rest
: of me ...

: Can you tell I love meeting up at
: chat?

: I really wanted to share that
: paragraph!
