Came across this description of how a diet is broken. 'Something sets you off and food is the only thing that will scratch this life-or-death--MUST-eat-now itch and you don't just modestly nibble on something, you devour food in savage urgent gulps, in a frenzy of euphoric excitement, you eat anything and everything that's been off limits. What started out as an innocent attempt to lose a few pounds has spiralled out of control. You think about food ALL THE TIME. Your life is being consumed by a constant and relentless inner tug-of-war between the desperate desire to lose weight and an out-of-control desire to eat. These are actually the proven results of dieting and when your body reacts to dieting in the only way that it can, you then label yourself as a binge eater, a compulsive overeater, a disordered eater and a food addict.' I hear ya sister!
