Hey Jules - welcome to the forum! You sound like you might be someone who needs to take baby steps instead of just jumping into the program. That's ok - it'll work. Maybe focus on one thing at a time like either giving up white flour and sugar products, or exercising. I go to my Y almost every day and either lift weights or run/walk on the treadmill. They have babysitting facillities (your baby is probably old enough for that by now). Don't worry too much about the cookie thing - we all do it to some extent. Just realize, and this is TOTALLY true, that the longet you eat lc, the easier it is. One thing that works for me is to constantly read, and re-read all the lc books out there, and there are a lot. They are very motivating. I think I have them all! And again. don't worry about the binges. Your desire to do so will decrease over time.Also remember - you're a new Mom and an infant is a ton of work. If a couple of cookies is what you need, go for it!
Diane.
