Anyone who has tired the "Dukan diet" (insainly popular now-a-days, I hear) has done a PSMF (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Protein_Sparing_Modified_Fast) ... It's very similar... I have EDNOS and this is about as high as I am comfortable to put calories atm. I used to keep them much lower or skip days all together, so this…

I am doing a combination of PSMF days combined with higher intake "clean eating" days. So, my calories range between 600-800 on lower calorie days and I usually take it up higher to 1.2-1.5k on weekends. It's true that my calories are low but I'm doing so in a safe way.

Emily, Thanks for the welcome. I already feel like a total fail whale because I binged last night. But I just need to move on and start fresh today. That's great that you lift weights as well. Sounds like you had a really good day yesterday. Great! :)

I ended up binging last night. After 11 days of not doing it. My dad brought home my favorite chocolates as a treat for me. And I couldn't say no. so I had like two of them (very small chocolates). But I have this all or nothing mentality and I started binging on healthy stuff after that. I had apples, cottage cheese, way…

Hey all. I know it's a week into January already but I was wondering if I could join the group? I'm trying to stop my binging habit for good and lean out. I've gone 11 days without binging so far so I'm doing well.
