The happy diet!
 

Hey!

I am a happy CADDIE girl today. I used to be sad, isolated and lethargic.
I have tried most diets and done insanely amount of research on the topic.

I started with the CAD (I call it the happy diet) in 1999 and lost 17 kilos. Kilos I had gained durring pregnancy and from eating "3-5 times a day".

People would get very irritated over my joy and obvious success. A "helping friend" told me I was wrong and had to apply Atkins thought to my diet to be truly safe and "clean" from sugars.

Since I still was struggling with untreated codependency I fell of the wagon although having had the best year ever and gained it all back.

Dealing with my codependency and facing my well kept guilt and shame in a ACA (adult children of Alcoholics or otherwise dysfunctional homes) I found myself and started to heal. Finally I could say NO!!

CAD is truly for those that need it not for all, but we who do find "home" in the happy diet are blessed. There is something about love, bounders, security, peace eating after these simple principles. Our life span program produces a great chemistry in our bodys, mind and soul.
(The Carbohydrate Addict's Lifespan Program)

Oh happy brain! Thanks to Dr. Rachael Heller for sharing her experience and life story and giving some of us peace. I remember the first time I saw the show on Oprah on this new way of living. Happy to have found back.

I just lift my hat for those that are happy in other programs and stick to my path. I don´t need to change them and they have no right to attempt to change me. We can eat today at the same table.

Gratefully (who would have thought)

Am right with you Happy girl!! Its going great for me as well down here in little old New Zealand!!!

Thanks y'all!

I just read the "Daily Affirmations" dec. 14 on the topic friendship. Good to get to make bran new CAD buddies.

I love knowing I can do this one day at a time and feel this great.
Yesterday I painted the first coating in my kitchen which I have earlier not had the energy to do. Wow!

I am 40 plus but have an energy only recovery + CAD can
accomplish. (from a Higher power engine).

Carpe diem girls!
Bless!

I too feel AWESOME on the CAD diet. It's the only one that's ever worked to cancel out my cravings, mouth/head hunger and that I can stay on long term.

I have been sidelined numerous times by trying to make the eat only when your stomach grrrrrrrs or growl's diets and have whatever you want. Never worked longer than a day for me.

I can have whatever I want one meal a day on CAD plus delicious food at the other two meals.

I am also Juvenile Diabetic so the two low carb meals a day and one low carb snack is really a great way for me to eat.

Thanks!

For all CAD girls information I "ran" around town till I got blisters
for arens and fun. A few weeks back I would have dreaded the walk. All positive and grateful!

Althought I have been eating many different forms of low carb meals and stayed calm for years not having cravings but not so happy either. I seem to be a true CAD girl, finally I am back home.

Looking forward to smal lunch/snack before my RF tonight, friday with the family. I too love not eating to often.

Bless you all! Catch the day!

Bless!!
 

Thanks!! Feel great that I found you galls.

Happy Girl - now a Happy Woman. Loving this ... reboot and fine-tuning. All glory the God.

I am so glad I found CAD/CALP. It's for life.

Bless
