Re: Gaining weight & am discouraged

Hi Regina,

The nature of pre-RR weight for me was that it would go up and down.
So you might be gaining and losing weight even if you weren't on this program.
It is so worth the investment to get the stability.

I've been on step 7 for years. My weight has stayed stable for years. I weigh 30
pounds less than when I started. It went down gradually. I'm hungry for meals,
enjoy them, and stop when I'm full. Food is just food, nutritious and yummy.
It's not tied to emotions or an addiction anymore. That's how the weight came
off for me.

I hope you stay with this program. Good job getting consistent with step 1 and
starting step 2.
