>If you try to starve yourself down, not only will you slow your metabolism -- as RealMe just pointed out -- but you'll also set yourself up for binging. It's very common -- it's almost unknown for anyone simply to starve themselves, virtually everyone will binge from restricting. It sets up a very unhealthy cycle.
Have you adjusted your meds lately? Maybe it's time to talk to your pdoc about why you get into these phases?
