Hello Jessica,
I’m so happy you posted this. I have been in that kind of a food program twice before and was very successful losing the weight, but for me it wasn’t sustainable and I always ended up rebelling and bingeing even more than before. It was vey discouraging. (These were 12-Step programs.) I’m find Gillian’s way much more sustainable, as I’m actually developing the neuroplasticity to change my behavior around food, not getting “locked in a box” of rules. And yet, my free choices are remarkably healthy, nourishing, and satisfying without overeating. Mind you, I’m only on my 3rd day of this realization and practice, but I have a feeling that Gillian’s program is the key to unlocking my brain!
