: Here I am, back again! I first came
: to RR in the early 2000’s. Since
: then, I have drifted in and out.
: Usually to follow the next shiny
: object that promised fast and
: “permanent” weight loss, and I
: have attempted some pretty extreme
: programs! Yes, I’ve lost a lot of
: weight (over and over), but it was
: never permanent. And, what was I
: left with for all my efforts? A
: messed up metabolism, multiple
: digestive/stomach issues, a 2-year
: battle with tendinitis of the
: hamstring - to name a few.
: Yesterday, as I was battling the
: most recent bout of “poor me”, a
: thought jumped in my mind. And it
: was a loud thought that demanded
: attention “Let food be thy
: medicine”. It was then followed by
: the thought that I needed to
: return to RR, and actually see the
: steps through and heal both my
: brain and my body. At 61, I am
: through with diets. They just
: don’t work. Now I just need to
: convince my inner voices of that!

: So, I’m back on Step One. Some of the
: parts are already pretty solid, so
: I will just tighten them up as I
: work on the one that’s not. Enough
: protein. My stomach right now: can’t handle regular sized meals,
: so I will have to play around a
: bit to find what works.

: Interesting that over the years, I
: never really cut my ties with RR.
: It’s like I always knew this was
: where I really belonged!

Welcome back!

Come back with a beginner's mind. If you post on the step one list about dealing with home much you can eat,
we can help you sort that.
