While agreeing, I would add, when trying it, do it gradually. First give up snacks, then narrow the gaps, then skip breakfast while widening the gap, then narrow it again. Two weeks each step at least. When in discomfort go back a step. While doing so also change what you eat, also very gradually. If you are like me and hate salad, just peel a carrot, cut a cabbage, eat them. I don’t bother making salads. To me it is a tax to pay. I eat them cause I must. Over time I started noticing they taste ok, to ahungry person. But the real joy of comes after paying that tax.

Want a real tasty meal, try 36 hours aka monk fast. I tried that 4 times and tried 48 hours 3times and 3 days one time since summer. 36 is the best. Not the easiest, surprisingly. But if I do longer, I can’t just eat anything I want when breaking it. The word from the wise about chicken broth is true, in my case. But 36 still not long enough to require easing out, and god it tastes great, whatever it is you are eating

Interesting. I took one year break from alcohol, just to make sure I am a master of my habits. Now I am back, drink red wine. So far keeping the weight. I noticed the food tastes better after fast, but so does wine.

I m in if. For me I can eat all I want, but here is the surprising part, I do not crave as much as I used to. I am allowed, but genuinely not willing. Another thing I noticed, from experience, if I eat white bread, or cake, I notice it the next day being more hungry

Not knowing much about what constitutes a disorder my take is this. Eating is not a goal. It is a tool. Being healthy is the goal. So if you are healthy, your eating is fine
