My diet is probably not as good as yours or as well planned out or documented, but I was wondering if you liked fresh apples, oranges, grapes, etc., or is just that they don't fit into your diet plan, also do you include onions and garlic in your food?

It's been two months since I started this thread and I haven't glutted once, which had been nightly. When I improved my diet, eating raw and cooked veggies as well as fruit and some servings of some type of protein daily, while cutting out nocturnal binges, I was only eating 15-1800 cals. I wouldn't get on the scale in the days just before starting this diary because I'd gone above 220 lbs, for the first time since I started exercising, about eighteen months ago. This seemed to correlate with having started to do cardio for the first time in many months and lifting weights much less in the weeks of the weight gain. Since I started this diary it seems I've lost 23-24 lbs. My Weight Watcher scale would have me think I've lost five lbs of muscle, though I'm still consistently growing stronger.

May all beings be peaceful. May all beings be happy. May all beings be free.
