Once I started eating whatever I truly wanted, in moderation, along with filling up on veggies and lean protein, I lost weight and kept it off. For me, the diets themselves (yeah, plural, over the course of 10 years) were the triggers to bingeing and other terrible food/exercise habits.

Bethenny Frankel's "Naturally Thin" was a revelation, for me![/quote]

x2.  Maybe I will read her book... it certainly seems to have worked for her. [/quote]

I think she takes her own advice too far/too seriously sometimes, but I've adopted probably 80% of her advice (to a lesser degree, probably, than she intended), and it truly has become second nature. I now feel that this sensible, healthy, positive way of approaching food and exercise is how I am naturally! I don't feel like I'm fighting against myself anymore. My very nature has changed.

What caused me to comment here is the title of the thread...no one should have to "survive" a diet. We're not meant to diet. We're meant to have a healthy and enjoyable relationship with food and with our bodies. No one can sustain "survival."[/quote]
