I do it, really working for me. Currently working with the JUDDD method of alternate day fasting. Making me feel "normal" again because every other day I can pretty much eat what I want as opposed to having been constantly dieting and denying myself tasty food. I have the tendency to binge and this is curbing that…

Thing is though, there's a lot to be said for the health benefits of fasting. Most people want to jump on the "that's not healthy" wagon...but personally this seems healthier than constantly denying and then bingeing. At least this way people feel more in control of their eating. Maybe it doesn't work for everyone, but for…

I agree! I've started doing alternate day fasting, and been so impressed with the results. And love being able to eat "normally" every other day without restricting myself the way I normally do on WW's, etc, and ending up bingeing.

I'm a red-headed gal. Used to hate it when I was young (it's awful how it's seen as acceptable to bully peeps with red hair)..but I LOVE my hair colour now. Get so many compliments on it, wouldn't change it for the world :)

I drink malibu and diet coke when I'm being strict on the diet - only 1/2 a weight watchers point (the old system) so it's guilt free!

I'll be able to fit into some amazing 60's dresses I have that are currently just hanging in my wardrobe, looking at me imploringly. That'll be reward enough!

Welcome! I too found this site after having a major binge and it's really helped me! People are so friendly and encouraging and the forum can be very motivating. Feel free to add me x

@leeshanicole - no, you look really happy :)

Your hair all combed up :)

Aww, I like my pic - 60's centric! Haha x madisontate - so cute! lovely, lovely white smile

@supatim - like the cheeky quiff!

Haha, I know! Not offended! Tis a freaky pic with all the light x

Guess I got the first no...

oops, that was for deniseearhear :) babygirl is very cute though...and trybefan? Woagh..haha ;)

Cracking figure and pixie face! What's not to like? ;)

I hear ya! I actually am from Scotland - red hair, pale skin. Used to hate it when I was wee, but really that was just cos kids could be cruel and tease me for my paleness/"ginger" hair. Now? I love my paleness! My hair is a lovely shade of auburney brown and I wouldn't change it for anything! :) I don't suit a tan, so why…

Ooh, good question..hmmm...off the top of my head, my faves have been: Blur (4 times) Radiohead Portishead Tom Waits Wilco Beck Fun Lovin Criminals Kylie Fleet Foxes Graham Coxon (5, 6 times?) Anthony and the Johnsons Girls Aloud (they were great, haha)

I love greek yoghurt..especially with honey over Hawaiin muesli (from Asda!). mmmmm. Prob not too healthy though!

I get this every so often too. Last week we got sent a huge box full of tins of M&S chocolatey biscuits and chocs to share for all our good work, and that can happen every so often. I've decided that if it happens then I'll treat myself to one thing..that way I'm still enjoying what everyone else is, but not going crazy.…

I'm from Glasgow, live in Glasgow :) Feel free to add me!

Lush, every time. My faves are the Amandopondo Bubble Bar and the Rose Bubbleroon. I may have to buy myself some this weekend - not had them in soo long!

I'm not sure what exactly is "wrong" with this? I'm 28, my long term boyfriend is 40 and we've been involved since I was 18 and he was 30. We have a great relationship, been living together for years. Age has never been a problem. It's been said so many times before, but age really is just a number....

Totally the same for me. I've always binged..except up until about 6 years ago I could binge without putting on any weight. I was naturally slim and my metabolism just burned it all off. I enjoyed food so didn't think anything was wrong with just eating..eating whilst reading a book..eating watching the tv. It was never…

I love my broccolli and have it pretty much every dinner. Big plate of it alongside my dinner bulks it up! Tasty too. I just get big bags of frozen florets and boil them. A nice veggi oriented lunch I sometimes have too is this: Spray some low cal oil onto a baking tray. Add some chopped onion, chopped mixed peppers,…

Fight, Fight, Fight...;)

Blur, since I was about 11. I'm 28 now and they're still my fave!

Welcome! You will find so much support here :) Feel free to add me, fellow red-head! (By the way - i love your name!!)

I can't drink Green Tea AT ALL. Even a couple of sips leave me with a very sore head and a dizzy sick feeling that can last for hours. I looked it up and a very small percentage of people will have that reaction. :( Here's a strange thing though, I have a Burts Bee's face scrub which has the smallest amount of green tea in…

Lush's Karma perfume - has been my favourite for years. All that patchouli and orange, totally 60's summer hippy! I love it! :)

I'm hopefully getting it tomorrow and will start tomorrow after work :) Heard so many good things about it!
