I'm also trying to lose weight similarly to you, by eating what I want, but with a gentle nudge toward healthier and less often. I don't binge much anymore, and to tell you honestly, I think I binged because a: I starved myself b: I had strange ideas of what was healthy (no fat) which would cause me to NEVER be satisfied. Now I eat a fair (not outrageous) amount of fat, and protein, and I'm much healthier and happier. But if I'm not so hungry at dinnertime, I'll often eat a salad, or peanut butter on a cracker, and I'm happy with it. I'm losing some weight, not too quickly, but it is what it is. It's not easy, but I'd like it to be permanent. I weigh every day. Anyway, my point being, I understand what you're doing, and wish you well, I think it's the right approach. Hi, good blog, so far.
