Hi Debbie

I stated back in November and am now on Step 3. It was really important for me to get step 1 down. Now the binges are slowly letting up and are not so frequent. My body body and brain chemistry are starting to stabilize after 30 years of constant binging. Just hang in there and have faith.

: HI,

: I purchased Potatoes Not Prozac, and
: the journal several months ago. I
: have been trying to master the
: breakfast as directed. I have
: always eaten breakfast, but
: sometimes it would be hours after
: waking. Also, I am vegetarian,so I
: am doing peanut butter on whole
: grain toast with oatmeal in the AM
: to get the protein.

: It took me a while to get on the
: forum, because I keep thinking I
: can do this myself. However, here
: I am at 10:30 at night after
: eating half a bag of jelly beans
: and half a bag of chocolate eggs.
: This after eating dinner. I was
: filling Easter eggs for a hunt. I
: am truly destroying my body.

: I have always been lucky to be thin,
: exercised, and ate fruits and
: veggies. Now I am just plain
: falling apart. My gut is getting
: bigger, and I just don't look like
: me anymore. I binge constantly.

: I love my family and I want to be
: here for them, and help others. I
: do not like this person I am.

: I am going to take the free class,
: but we are also facing some
: financial issues. I hope between
: the book and every ones help I can
: get off the sugar. I feel sick of
: myself. I am sorry for being so
: self -absorbed, but I do need
: help.

: Thank you for reading.

: Debbie
