: Hi Hatty, I think many of us have
: struggled with these feelings and
: totally understand. When I
: experienced what you are
: describing, I took Kathleen's
: advice and focused on step one,
: and it really helped. The amazing
: thing with this program is that
: when we focus on working each
: step, by the time we reach step
: six, the detox is a non-issue
: I found that totally amazing!

: I've also tried vegetarian and vegan
: diets, my personal experience is
: that I notice that I feel much
: better when I have some of my
: protein from
: eggs/poultry/fish/meat sources.
: And for me, craving those proteins
: is very different from an
: addictive craving. These denser
: proteins help me heal
: biochemically.

: Glad you connected

Hi Hatty,
I also tried the vegan route for 8 months. When I wasn't eating meat and dairy, I never really felt satisfied no matter how much plant based food I ate.

When I went off the vegan plan, I went on a several month binge due to the deprivation I felt as a vegan. I realized that some people, me included, are just meant to have animal products to feel well.

I knew I needed to do something after binging for months, and so I remembered RR which I had discovered years ago. I believe it is the best place for people like us who are sugar sensitive.

As you get back to basics and continue your recovery, you are not alone. We, in various stages of this RR program, are here for you.
