Hi Chaps,
I was at a 2-day conference in London earlier in the week and during the first evening I spent a bit of time talking to a woman who told me that she had been on a VCLD about two years ago. She looked great but told me that she had developed Bulemia as a result of the diet!!
She said that she lost her weight quickly and successfully but for months afterwards couldn't get the hang of eating healthily and took to binging and purging in order to maintain her weight loss!! She said that she was a lot better now but still had a tendency to throw up if she ate a big meal e.g. Christmas time or after a celebration! (I did notice that she left the table after the presentation meal and wondered .............?!)
This really worries me! Has anyone else heard of this happening? Or is it likely that this is just tendency that this woman had as opposed to being a condition likely to develop as a result of being on a VLCD?
