Has anyone ever had a plateau that wouldn't break and then they got upset any binge ate for a day( or just ate a lot for any reason) and then gone back to their diet the next day and they started losing weight again?

Has anyone tried this? Did it work?

    I've heard of people having a high calorie meal (I'd try and keep it healthy :) when they've plateaued and it helped them out. I think one meal is worth the shot.

    I'd be careful on allowing a 'binge' day. Mine took 2 months to recover from :)

    Been there and done that. You're right "binge meal" is one thing - binge day can turn into 3 days then a week and then when the scale shows a gain, you really lose it.

    Yeah - I'm thinking more binge meal. Hoping that'll break my plateau
