Hi, I just found out about this program today and feel so excited about starting. I have also tried many of the the diets you mentioned and found myself worse off and can really relate to you. I also really want to be free of the obsession to foods. I'm also a housewife and will turn 40 this year and really want a real change to how I have been living. I would like to have a support system and please email me and hopefully we can get in touch.

: Hello everyone. I'm new although
: really I'm returning after a few
: years. I bolted last time when I
: faced possibly gaining a few
: pounds as I added enough protein
: to all 3 meals. But I'm ready to
: commit now. I think. I'm at
: least more settled regarding
: working the steps one at a time
: and not worrying about the future.

: Anyway, I'm a 45-year-old housewife,
: sugar addicted since I was born,
: and enthusiastic about step 1 as I
: know from past experience it
: almost immediately relieves a lot
: of my depression. In fact, I've
: been on step 1 off and on for
: several years.

: I've tried WW, paleo, Atkins, proper
: food combining and other diets I'm
: sure I've forgotten in the past.
: In all of them I'm obsessed with
: my next meal or snack constantly.
: I'd really like to be free of
: that.
