I'm interested in finding other women who are recovering, or have already recovered, from breast cancer via mb. I would love to have others to network with and receive hope from. Adding to the challenge is the fact that I am a food addict. Anyone familiar with food addiction and 12 Step recovery would be a real plus.
Look forward to hearing from you.

Hello Rachel
I was recently diagnosed with stage 4 breast cancer (spread to bones) and am trying to eat the macrobiotic way. I have a hard time also since I am a food addict.
Is your mom still doing well? Are soy products OK with estrogen receptor positive?
I eat lots of brown rice and beans and lots of fresh vegetables. It is very isolating since it is difficult to eat out. It has only been 2 months for me. I have a scan on Monday 4/12/08 - will know then if I am making progress.
