Q: First of all, thank you so much for all the help you have given me over the past year. Last January, I read your book ‘Fat Around the Middle’ – I was skeptical at first, but the case study could have been written about me and I implemented your suggestions with fabulous results. I feel the best I have for years, but I would still like to maintain my weight and, if possible, reduce it even further.
However, my problem is that I have difficulty maintaining control when the first ‘strictest’ 3 months of the programme were complete. When the guidelines are very strictly prescribed I am OK, but when the guidelines are relaxed, I tend to have more and more frequent lapses i.e. eating chocolate etc.
Do you have any suggestions? I would very much appreciate any advice on how to moderate these binges.
