The Beck Diet Solution

[Not2Much]

Let's put it this way:

Dr Beck says that you have to choose a diet...any diet...and she will help you get the 'head-bit' right.

Cohens is amazing for weightloss, but I think that (for some of us at least) the weightloss happens so fast that our minds and emotions haven't quite caught up yet...and this is what her books teaches.

I started reading it this week....wish I had tried it before maintanence last time

The only thing is that it says to not choose a super restrictive diet and to allow yourself occasions to indulge so that you're less likely to feel like you're missing out and then go off the deep end when you reach your goal. Which doesn't really fit with Cohens. Do people intentionally deviate for an event or a day and get straight back on plan without hesitating due to Beck?

I never deviated last time partly because I was afraid if I did that everything would fall apart / I'd fall off the wagon altogether. Which pretty much means that if I had of ever deviated I would've been a prime candidate for the 'oh well, I stuffed up, ruined now, might as well eat that and that and that as well'...

My mindset is different now though. This time I plan on not deviating because I just don't want to go through the detox and bloatiness again. Not due to fear or lack of control. Which I'm hoping will mean I'm more successful at keeping it off when I do reach goal.

Still, a scheduled deviation day...thoughts?

I have my 30th birthday in a couple of months and have really been contemplating going out, having a non-cohen-friendly dinner, not a crazed binge though, then back on the wagon the next day. But without any of the usual guilt and sabotage. A bit of a test. But then, ugh, the bloatiness and detox

Hey Grem!!

I am reading becks too... have paused right now, but am loving it... I just ignore anything that doesn't fit in with Cohens. I like... no sorry, LOVE to rapidness of cohens, and that is also why I choose not to deviate. I do think becks can help with getting straight back into it though, but I, personally, would prefer to finish this asap.

Hope you like the book too, newstart!
