When it comes to breaking up with sugar, there is no "magic pill", and one size definitely does not fit all. Nancy Kaley BS, LADC is the Program Director and Facilitator of the COR Retreat, a food recovery program that teaches a way to live free from obsession with food and the excess weight it causes. Her story once again proves that the journey towards better health and wellness is one of self-determination and never giving up. In this episode, Nancy and Molly discuss the limitations of "mindful" or "intuitive" eating and how her very first session at COR Retreat changed her entire paradigm around her addictions. They talk about why having support, combined with a large dose of honesty and humility, are the keys to sustained recovery once you walk out of the treatment center!

Keep the acronym SLIP (Sobriety Loses Its Priority) in mind to catch yourself at these critical moments; There is not a lot of therapy you can do if you're indulging in your addictions every day regardless; On your road to recovery, focus on one meal at a time; then, commit to doing tomorrow what you did today; Keep checking in with yourself to ensure that your recovery really is that important to you. You're treating a primary illness, so it needs to be on top of your list of priorities at all times; If you're genuinely on the path to ridding yourself of food addiction, stay humble and compassionate. Avoid posturing as "healthier than thou". You do not have the luxury to get offended by a food pusher! Want to spend MORE time together? Me too!
