Hello!

I am Renee. I have been battling with eating issues for my entire life. I struggle with binge eating and constant thoughts around food, deprivation, binging, sugar and health. I know a great deal about nutrition, cooking, exercise and healthy lifestyle but have a tough time implementing what I know. In addition, I am a mom who is responsible for all the shopping and meals in our home, yet I feel powerless in controlling what comes into the house by my teenagers and husband. Since they do not struggle with food issues, I often feel unsuported in my many endeavors to eat better.

Last year I completed a detoxification/low carb sucessfully, but then I rebounded by even more binging and carb consumtion. I managed to end up 5 lbs heavier than I started. My cholesterol is high and my  fasting blood sugars are in the 90s. I also have borderline blood pressure and thyroid issues. 

I have tried moderation in the past, but have come to realize that moderation is extremely difficult for me and that once I am triggered ( usually before I even realize it), I am back to binge eating that lasts for months.

I have listened to the Quit Sugar Summit and heard both Florence and Aimee speak and I am hopeful that this program is the answer!
