Unfortunately Theresa, there is not one piece of advice that anyone can give that will work for everyone. We are all different, and we all react in different ways to situations.
The beauty of this diet is that if you follow the rules to the letter and do not try to make your "own version" it does work, and it works very well indeed.
I think two crucial elements are self-belief, and really wanting to lose the weight. If you do not believe that you can do this, then the voices in your head will play havoc with you and lead you into temptation.You have to ignore them, and keep focussed on what it is you truly want. On the second point, if your head is not in the right place, then it may be that this is not the right time.
This diet does work, and the results are amazing, but you have to be dedicated, focussed, honest and true (to yourself and the diet), and to a certain degree you need to be selfish I think. You need to put yourself and your needs with respect to the diet first. Friends and family will understand, believe me. When I first did this diet (in fact I did LL and then swapped to CD) I lost 102 lbs in about 5 months, and I always put myself first. I upset a few people, I annoyed a few more, I irritated a whole load, but I got to where I wanted to be. I refused to eat things that people had "specially prepared", I refused to take cakes to the office on my birthday, I declined going to parties etc etc.
This sounds like I became a recluse, and maybe I did for the first few weeks. Once I was well into ketosis then I gradually eased myself back into "difficult situations", but always on MY terms.
If you know that you binge, then take the stuff you binge on out of the equation. Make sure it isn't there. Try keeping a diary about when, where, why you feel like eating, and then think of some other ways of getting round the problem. You need to get it straight in your mind that you only eat for "fuel", not as a treat, not as a comfort. The sole purpose of food is so that your body can keep going.
I'm sorry that I cannot give you an answer that will solve everyones problems, but there is no such thing. Each one of us has slightly different issues, and we all deal with them in slightly different ways. THis forum is a great source of support and advice, but at the end of the day it still comes down to your willpower, what you want, and how strong you are.
