: Copper, I loved Kathleens advice so
: much ( could have been written for
: me!)

:

what works best is to master step
: one. Think about it. Improve it,
: enjoy it, talk with others about
: it.

: what you are doing is thinking about
: sugar and binges. And what to do
: for all day

: Just focus on breakfast. JUST that.

: if you want sugar, have it. If you
: don't, don't...if you binge, don't
: fret about it.
: Put your energy into Step One. Just
: that.

: this is how the program works.

: I came from LC tooo. had not had
: sugar really for 4 years. Apart
: from the odd intermittent sugar
: which was awful, I felt really
: crazy with that.

: I chose not to add sugar, as I
: seriously did not want any, but I
: still needed to work with every
: bit of every step to be healing.
: It was a really good move for me.

: A farily swift 1,2,3,4 and I didnt
: get the benefit. Living the steps
: works...it really does. I'm really
: looking forward to hearing about
: your step one
Hi Mosaic,
Thank you for the encouragement. I have gone back and trying hard to stay with step one and honestly, I feel more anxious and depressed than when I wa having the potato. I think I screwed things up by having that too soon. I am wondering if thei backtracking will make me feel worse for awhile. It is probably necessary but I am my old worried self and had been feeling some relief.
