Dear Leeda
Most ladies who have struggled with food issues for some time experience this fear of failure that you speak of, simply because they have tried so many different things and nothing worked. Fear however, is something the enemy uses to keep people in a place of bondage year after year. The truth is that you can not fail at this program, not because it's some "miracle cure" but because it consists of tools to implement basic Biblical principals and habits into your life. Jesus alone can heal your heart and free you from the bondage of eating disorders (Isaiah 61:1-4)
God can use even the "failed attempts" of your past. You might have been prepared by those to be here, at this very moment, in this very spot, ready to begin your journey to freedom!
As to your other question: You can do this program at your own pace. I have a suggested schedule of 12 weeks, but most ladies take longer and especially come back to areas that they still have difficulty with. I offer a life time access to this program, so you can come back to it or do it again as many times as you need to.
I would love to have you if you choose to become a member of my program, but whatever you decide, my prayer for you is that God may bring you to a place of total healing and freedom in Him.
Warm regards Heleen
