or rather still recovering bulimic I can totally relate. I have put on about 10 pounds on Heather's diet and am struggling to keep it at a minimum. I've had to remind myself( and my husband reminds me) that I am feeling better so I can focus on the weight a little later. However, I do believe, at least for me, it is all the sugar I am craving and eating. It's one of the few things that doesn't iritate me, so I eat it. Eating disorders are a real B**** to get over. I've suffered for 21 years. Being on this diet has really helped me to stop and accept myself for who I am. I guess if I have any advice it would be not to beat yourself up and give it time. Slowly try cutting things out. If you try to eliminate a bunch of stuff at the same time, you will struggle. Baby steps are the key, at least for me. As mentioned in a previous post, those of us with EDs have little or no hunger meters. We never feel full or satisfied. Good luck, I hope you find something that helps.
