It Makes Sense

I read something the other day that really hit home.

When you don't eat enough calories your body burns muscle. Then when you inevitably binge (well I do anyway) the weight goes on as fat. So I am essentially taking away muscle and replacing it with fat, which is why I am always fatter after a 'diet' then when I started.

I had what Oprah calls a 'light bulb moment' when I read that.
