I’ve been lurking for a few weeks after reading the book and decided to finally introduce myself! I decided to try the BSD to try and stabilise my binge eating habits which were out of control and try to prevent diabetes which I’m sure I was destined for with my sugar/carb consumption. I started on Wednesday 22.06.16 and on the Friday I went on holiday to Turkey for 10 days. This was planned for me as I knew it take me away from the sweets and chocolate that I would crave in the early days. I am pleased to say it worked as I managed to stick to the plan while away albeit guessing calories and having 1 day 1200 calls with alcohol but no sweets/choc/crisps/icecream passed my lips. I weighed in after my 14 days and am very pleased to have lost 11 3/4lbs and 1.5″ both from my hips and waist. I am so pleased that I have no cravings and feel I can stick with this plan for life! I would guess I have about another 50lbs to lose so I will be on the 800cals for a while anyway and look forward to having some chats on the forum with you all.
