This isn't something that you can just do for a week or two, quit for a month and then start again for a week or two...it takes commitment.

and honestly, even if you weren't on this diet....I hope you would end the McDonald's trip....it's horrible for you.


Well, like I said my parents are on a tight budget, they are living from paycheck to paycheck, they can't afford to buy all this food for me, especially every week. It was easier when I had just not eaten then having to buy all this healthy food that is expensive where I live. It's not the same price everywhere, every state and town are different.

Anyway, I know McDonalds is bad for me, but my mom considers it cheap food that's why she buys it, lol.

I know I'm pathetic, seems like I have an excuse for everything, but I have given up fairly easy on alot of things in life because I felt I was a burden to my parents, so I try not to ask them for much cause I never hear the end of it if I do. I have realized that nobody is gonna fully support me, so really I just have to go out and work any old crummy job so I can buy my own food and not have to worry about it anymore, even if that means driving illegally to get to my job cause my parents won't pay for car insurance cause it's expensive.

Besides all that, It is EXTREMELY hard for me to give up the foods I love and the binging. For years I've had a problem with food, I give up easily and give in after diets and end up binging more. I guess maybe it's called emotional eating, but I eat when I'm bored to, it's hard to control. I wanted to try the SBD after my doctor had suggested it, and when I read how much people lose on it and how successful it is I wanted to give it a try because it is better than trying to starve myself instead which was my CHEAP approach to lose weight and never works. Not all people who start on SBD keep on it, some have their downfalls, and so will I. I am new to the cooking too, have never been taught to cook alot of things, my mother always did that or we just went out to eat instead. So give me some time to adjust to the healthy lifestyle because I never ate healthy in my life, it's a big change for me.

Way off topic. The original question was about fish, right?
If further discussion is needed, please start a new thread with a meaningful title.

Jellybean, I suggest you check out Chicks In Control to help you with the binging problem. It may be that the strict structure of SBD is not for you in your current situation.
