I've got the bug back now. I've decided to cap my calories at around 1000 - 1200 (at a reasonable guess) and am slowly bringing some exercise back in after the quacks gave my knee the all clear.
So long as you're reasonably active it's a very simple personal dilemma. You just have to ask yourself the question "what do I want more? To lose weight or to eat that pie". If it's pie then eat the pie. If it's lose weight, don't eat the fucking pie.
Working in an office, I've never seen or heard of (over and over and over) more fad diets in my life. I swear one claimed to lose 10lbs in 3 days, "i'm only allowed 3 dry crackers and a black coffee" "i've gotta fit into a bikini by Tuesday" "i can have chocolate cos it's Thursday and the moon counter acts the sugar" that sort of bullshit. Then they go out and get smashed on lambrini or whatever it is they drink in Kent.
