Hi GL

No - don't start fasting, because you will definitely start binging as your body will think it's starving and force you to eat. It's nature's way. It will act as if there has been a famine followed by plenty. Stone Age rules.

Can't you ask your mother not to stock the fridge with things like chocolate cake, which is only junk food and something that no-one needs to survive. It's laden with fat and sugar and is just bad for you, bad for your mother, bad for everyone.

I never buy junk food (potato crisps were my weakness) or any kind of stuff which I know will tempt me and just cause more struggles with my self-control.

You can actually train yourself to hate chocolate.

Keep at it.
