So, I know that yo-yo dieting is supposed to be bad. I was wondering if what I'm doing qualifies as that, or no?
I get hyper-interested in dieting for about 2 weeks or so...lose around 2 lbs a week eating right, exercising, etc. Then I kind of lose interest, but eat well enough that I maintain (don't let my weight go up by more than a lb or so). I sometimes binge a little during that time, but overall don't eat too badly. After 2 or 3 weeks, I get interested in losing weight again, and cycle through it like that again and again.
I know I'd probably lose weight faster if I kept with it, but I honestly just can't stay enthusiastic and interested in doing so constantly. Cycling like this lets me consistently lose 4-5 lbs per month, but I'm worried that it's kind of yo-yo diety.
