How hungry are you to end the cycle of illness, obesity, and food addiction?
It really DOES get easier! I promise. Abstaining from sugar, oil, salt, alcohol, and in many cases even whole grain flours WILL heal your body AND brain and stop the endless cravings and weight gain. Adding movement and exercise WILL make you feel a natural high. Eating whole, delicious, plant foods WILL heal your body and mind! And it feels WAY better than the short-lived pleasure of junk foods! The brain and body begin to adapt well in a few weeks so if you hang in there, you’ll get there.
When I read the following passage by Dr. Pam Peeke, I said a loud YES in my head! I know this to be true. Then I remembered Dr. Dean Ornish’s statement that brought it all together: “Fear is not sustainable; joy and pleasure are.”
“The greater the hunger you feel about your quest to control your food addiction, the less discipline is needed to carry out your program. The journey becomes joyful and pleasurable even when most challenging. Reward gives discipline a purpose.”

You’re very welcome! If you can take Tim’s class that would be great! But you know you can start now, today. Add a lot of fruits and veggies, beans, sweet potatoes, etc to start crowding out other foods. You can do this!!
