Weekly Vlog: 30 Years of Coin Flips

[@KrisDilworth]

Susan, It is your transparency and continued growth that makes this program like no other. My first flip of a HUGE coin was hearing about BLE on the Food Revolution network, and they've been coming ever since.

[@Brightlineeating]

Thank you for commenting 🤗

[@sharonsgottapuzzle]

Congrats on 30 years🎉. I just passed my 24 year clean and sober anniversary, and now to be in sobriety with my food addiction and eating disorder since January is such a wonderful gift. Thank you sooooo much for BLE❤

[@Brightlineeating]

Congratulations on 24 years! 🌟

[@newtonjohnm]

A timely message, thank you. Why take unnecessary risks with our food? It makes good sense to weight the coin, in order to stack the risks in our favour.

[@Brightlineeating]

[@ruthpalmer1620]

You amaze me. Your path, your honesty, you wisdom, your strength - congratulations on 30 years as well as the 10 yrs of BLE. You are a blessing to us. It was a miracle I found BLE and started flipping my coin. ODAAT! Forward we march!

[@Brightlineeating]

One day at a time 🥰

[@ISeeYou912]

You have me in tears with this one. I've been stuck in a few cycles that are slowly resolving, and it is intense.

[@Brightlineeating]

🫂🫂Sending you love!

[@jacquleneschultz]

Thank you for picking up the coin and handing it to me so that I at least have a chance to flip it rather than continuing down the using path without awareness of another option.

[@dianajaimes2017]

What a beautiful way to put it.

October 21, 1985, Some times it's minute by minute you weight the coin. Then minutes become hours, hours to days, days to weeks, weeks to months, months to years, Then as Pink Floyd said, 10 years have gone behind you, no one told you when to run, you missed the starting gun. BUT that starting gun was way back in that first minute you came to realize that some thing bigger than you could help you and you turned your life and addiction over to it. Again, another great Blog Doc.!!!❤❤

Heading into year 8, this makes so much sense. Thank you - and congratulations.

“If the cost is my peace, it’s too expensive” I LOVE THAT!!!!!!

[@Brightlineeating]

Right?! 🥰

[@Krnhim]

This was very providential for me today as it is my 300th day of BLE and being bright (joined the Boot Camp in October 2023). I am so looking forward to completing my first year and yes, every milestone feels like a total miracle. Thank you for your hard-won insights and for allowing us to see a bit of your own miraculous journey.

[@Brightlineeating]

Bravo on 300 Bright days 🧡🧡🧡

[@Momzie11]

Love your transparency, openness and honesty and this heartfelt share!❤

[@Brightlineeating]

🧡We appreciate your words.

"A choice point. What am I going to do with this knowledge?" You have a powerful spiritual testimony, my friend! Honored to bear witness to your story.

Hi Susan! Just listened to your Vlog and it was very good. I just celebrated 28 years, 8/13/96. The drugs and alcohol is way in the rear view mirror, but the food, and other comfort addictions (spending, sex, screen time) are still begging my attention. I've been thinking about it. Getting sober in AA got me 85% better, which is a big improvement. And then I spend the rest of my life working on the last 15%. I have been abstinent from sugar and processed flour before. But I am not currently. I know abstinence works for me, where moderation does not. I appreciate all you do for the world. And I hope to collaborate w/ you someday as you are an impressive person, and I think the clearest and most compelling sober teacher out there. Peace.

[@Brightlineeating]

28 years 👏👏👏Sending you peace and love!

[@janicejohnson9953]

I've written down the essence of the last three minutes to remind myself as often as needed to summon up the willingness to weight the coin in my favor and to fall in love with the opportunities for growth and change. This feels very hopeful! Thank you!

[@talkwithnateandbri]

Wowowow. Thank you for your transparency

[@fionah3433]

Dr.Thompson, you have had an amazing life! Incredible story...things continue to get more amazing with BLE and all you have done to help yourself and others. Long may you run.

[@Brightlineeating]

Thank you for taking the time to comment! 👏👏🤗🤗

[@laureleeduncan2566]

Wow, you so remarkable. Falling in love with your own growth is necessary to continue to weight the coin. It acknowledges the power of that love in the face of the random choices you make in life. I'm also taking home the role of identity in spiritual self-love. SO, that question we ask our kids -- what/who do you want to be -- is critical TO THEM. Perhaps also as a nation.

[@MelanieGold-ou4ts]

Keeping it REAL. Thank you, Susan.

[@Brightlineeating]

😊🌟

[@cherie2870]

Congrats on your 30 years! I agree with you. Being clean and serene is totally separate. As addicts, we have many symptoms and jump from one thing to another, but the most important thing is to not use! BLE has totally helped me with my food and eating healthy. Thanks Susan. Glad I found you and your program.

Well said. I am passing this one along. 3 years and counting. Yea!

[@Brightlineeating]

Way to go on 3 years! 💞

[@gilliancooke9525]

I weight my coin listening to the weekly vlog🎉

[@MsJamble]

I love the way that you have “caged the monkeys” that have been on your back…you will forever be able to step back and look at that cage without fear…knowing that you hold the keys to that cage tightly in your hand! In Georgia (other places too) we say “You Go Girl!”

[@katenash8045]

Susan, I believe you’ll be writing a memoir. Not a book about a program, or to teach, but the story of the many many miracles you have seen in the first decades of your life.

[@Krnhim]

I would enjoy that book!

[@JohnsDeb]

I would enjoy that book too❤

[@Brightlineeating]

So sweet 🧡🧡

[@dianajaimes2017]

That is such a good idea. I would love that book.

[@Brightlineeating]

Susan says she definitely has a memoir in her 🧡🧡🧡

[@beverlythrasher8382]

God was not through with you, Susan, when you quit drugs and alcohol. I believe those things don't happen by coincidence.
