Re: What step am I on?
In Response To: What step am I on? ()

Hi Jeffrey
Are you still doing breakfast and journal? I'd back up to the earliest step you aren't doing consistently and concentrate on that. That doesn't mean you can't still do your three meals, but just put your attention on the earliest step you aren't doing consistently.

I know people who have a history of bingeing say that the longer they did the steps, the less often they binged, until finally they stopped entirely. Please be easy on yourself - beating yourself up only messes up your biochemistry more.
