[QUOTE="Copabanana, post: 689134, member: 18958"] And it got worse. I got up from bed and ate 5 bowls of cheerios. I am thinking of doing a food journal and trying to identify something that will work, identifying what my triggers are. I am somebody who has successfully fasted, even for long periods, and succeeded at a highly restricted caloric regimen, [I]when I have decided. [/I] [I]I have also been successful at lowering and maintaining my weight, by reasonable food choices. [/I]By that I mean to say, I can live with not eating a lot or everything. But I have not lost anything in 6 months *until that mini-fast last week. I think that is the key. I think I have to completely fast some days and eat normally the others (normal for me.) I do not think I can ask myself to near-fast every day. That is not reasonable. I took it too far, or not enough. Either longer term complete fast, or several fasting days a week, or one good meal a day. But near-starvation every day without rules and then Costco hotdogs, and 5 large bowls of Cheerios. No. So I am back to the approach I studied last week: 2 to 4 days at less than 500. Glad to see you Walrus. [/QUOTE]
