: Hi, Copper!
: I was *just* reading this article on
: the RR site about different diets
: and how they affect sugar
: sensitive people like you and me:
:
: http://www.radiantrecovery.com/resourcecenter/otherprograms.htm
: It talks about low-carb, and if I
: understand it right, going
: low-carb might give us immediate
: results in some areas, but only in
: the short term -- and that eating
: low-carb is not sustainable in the
: middle or long run for our bodies
: because it drops our serotonin
: levels. It sounds like it would
: make us feel more anxiety, misery,
: cravings, and so forth.
: I'm sorry to hear that you've been
: feeling doubtful and anxious. I
: sympathize - I've been binging
: too, and feeling impatient and
: stressed out about whether I can
: make this program work, feeling
: frantically like I have to somehow
: slam on the brakes and exert iron
: control to get 'back on track'.
: What I'm hearing and what I feel
: deep down is that patience and
: trust are the key. I am trying to
: relax where I am and trust that my
: chemistry and this program were
: made for each other.
: I applaud you for posting and for
: taking steps toward journaling and
: working on your breakfast with the
: shake. That sounds awesome. Your
: calm mood will come back. Hang in
: there.
: Bevy
Thank you Bevy, That article is really interesting, I will have to read it a few times to understand it better. patience and trust-sounds good!
