    Wish I knew WHY!! Don't beat yourself up- I believe that the if the majority is good then balance will happen.
  • it's probably because you're depriving yourself of these foods, and eventually your body wants them SO badly, that you almost have to give in. try treating yourself a tiny bit each day, you'll be less likely to have days where you "binge" and eat only bad foods :]

    for more on this, check out the book Intuitive Eating... it's amazing!
