Shell, I'll write to you after I finish my teaching day. Sounds like you could use more than one person supporting you right now.

Hang in there.

Prayer helps me enormously. My Higher Power is always there.

Wishing you some peaceful time,
Cindy

Shell, how are you doing today? I wish I could be your sponsor, but I am too new at this myself. You can email me any time you want, though. I'll email you with my addy too.

As for lowcarb or not. It's up to you what works for you. I have to limit carbs because of my blood sugar but I can eat certain carbs that other people can't. What matters is that you become the master of when and why you eat. We all do different things here. My food list will not look like yours or Mary's or Cindy's. But it has worked for me for 13 days and it will work for me today.

We would never, ever, put you down. We know the pain of this addiction. We are here to support and maybe kick your fanny if you ask us to . I know well the feeling of despair upon waking up in the morning after a binge. The feeling of utter helplessness to get out of the grip that this addiction can have on us. Quitting smoking was far easier for me that this.

To Mary, I have to tell you that when you offered to be my friend and support, you have no idea what that meant to me.

Take care, all

Mary/Amadeus

Thank you all for your kinds thoughts......

I did a lot of soul searching last night...but not b4 i instigated two major changes in my life.......

1) i joined a gym and did an aqua aerobics class (it was so much fun)

2) i also began a new eating plan....my best friends mother is a consultant for a low carb plan called "sure slim"....and i called and spoke to her and she has offered to arrange it all for me for free!

I am also going to go to an OA meeting here in Melbourne (yes I'm an Aussie) tommorow morning (Saturday).......

I feel much more positive and determined today and I know that receiving emails from Mary, Mary (Amadeus) and Cindy have also brightened my day!

Hugs

Michelle

Michelle, what's happening?

I hope all is well.

Sending you good wishes...
