I need some pointers, maybe some assurance that if I work this plan, I can see the urge to binge and eating too fast, diminish?

I don't know if it's out of habit. I find myself still eating too fast, and eating by myself because I don't really know *how* to eat around others. part of me is maybe just confused emotionally...scared, unsure, worried about what others will think...in general this is something I always need to work on! (stop worrying what others think)

When I am alone, I find I am eating too emotionally or maybe not even thinking about it - I want to learn how to eat slower, and more mindfully, along with really kicking the compulsion for sugar.

I'm a bit confused how to tackle this..any advice, pointers? I know I need to work on Step 1 and I don't need to let go of sugar yet...but if the sugar is making me feel out of control, shouldn't I quit this cold turkey before anything else?

This plan also seems to call for 3 big meals and no snacks...but I remember being told that for those of us who are tempted to binge, it's important to break it up into maybe like..5 smaller meals a day so that we won't feel so hungry or tempted to over-eat / binge at the end of the day.

I'd love to hear people share what their experiences have been, if this plan and doing anything in particular helped you to eat slower and also tackle the binge problems.

Thanks
