This is a very interesting article. I have considered the fact that I am probably classed as a "compulsive over eater" but havent ever thought of myself as a compulsive exerciser. I think its because I only compulsively, and excessively, exercise when I have eaten vast quantities of food and need to find some way of "purging" the food without vomitting.

Hey. I think as long as you are eating a balanced diet with enough nutrients, you dont feel deprived AND as you say you are eating the same as before pretty much? Then if you can LIVE like that after the weight goes, and you are getting ENOUGH nurtients (a readymeal should probably be replaced with fresh fruit and veg). I would say, the weight is coming off yes, BUT in the long run, you might not be as healthy as you could be if you maybe had a few more hundred cals a day, regardless of how hungry you are. Hunger isnt everything, nutrients and longevity is. At the end of the day your body can get past hunger fairly quickly, but if you do damage now, like not enough calcium, vits and mins, you may regret it when you are an old lady and have all sorts of problems.....just a thought.
