Thanks Mare! I am a longtime Becker and have had a lot of success with it, but am going through a rough patch right now. I am really looking forward to a new Beck journey with all of you.

I received my book yesterday and read the first 4 chapters before bed. The whole time I'm reading I'm thinking: I don't do this, I don't tell myself that, and on and on. Really? I can't even read a help book without sabotaging myself. This is going to be a lot of work isn't it? My question is, I plan on using loseit for recording food do I still need a notebook? I'll get the index cards today.

Adding my voice to the thank you choir Mare! I have a difficult task for late August and feel that the BDS work may help me get through it without losing my shit.

Hi Mare, it's looking good, I have the book and I found and read the thread. Will start with the Intro and take it from there.

Ack! I can't find my Pink book (I swear I saw it lying about a few days ago) and have been lolly gagging around waiting for the first to start reading. Ordered the paperback today to arrive tomorrow. Probably my hardcover will turn up then. Anyway, I will add to the chorus of thanks. Your reviews were the best!

I am looking forward to Becking again. I did well one of the previous go rounds of the pink book but have had a few slip ups along the way.
Thanks Mare

I'd like to chime in to say I have gone through this book several times with Mare and the folks under the Big Tent. It has REALLY changed the way I think about food, helped me to get to my healthiest weight ever, and even more importantly, I don't feel like I'm white knuckling my way through every day. Having said that, one of the things that I think really helped me was when I made a decision to actively participate. Like Mare said, if that's overwhelming and will keep you from going through the book, then don't worry about it. I just know that when I took the leap to participate in the thread, things really changed for me. Also, I've probably been at this for over 18 months and still see the value in going through the book again, since there's always something I can improve! Looking forward to it.
Phyllis

Downloaded my Kindle version and am on Chapter 3. I've kept off 90 of a 105lb loss since 2013. But it has been a struggle at times and I'm up a little again. I really, for once in my life, want to NOT obsess about food every effing day! You know, like thin people! I'm very optimistic after reading about others successes. Thanks for leading this thread Mare!

I'm ready to try again! I've stalled out at about Day 15-17 too many times. I need to finish this time.

I read the chapters and intro. I tried this once before but never with a group. I think the group setting will help.
Quick question, can we somehow pin the daily threads to the top or is that unfair to other groups? Maybe just that day's thread? Thought it might make it easier to find, but I don't want other book groups to get mad.
Thanks for doing this!
