First of all, thank you all for contributing, because although everyone's journey to their goal is different, it does help to hear how you got over the obstacles. I guess I've just got to admit that I've an unstable and unhealthy relationship with food. I love it and I dread it, going from one extremity to another -…

That happens. It just goes to show that your body likes the healthy diet better and by bringing back the junk you're not doing yourself a favour. I mean, it's not serious, and if you keep eating, your bowels will get back into a steady relationship with junk, but I think you wouldn't want that. Your body's giving you a…
