As you suggested asking as if you were a five year old I will.
How can you overeat while on this diet?
You said that you only get fat from overeating,
so which are the most common mistakes?
I seem to have gained weight, and I thought it might be due to lack of exercise . Before I went on this diet, I used to excercise a lot (mainly running),and of course my diet was fat free and sugar free .
I now understand that all of that was not correct.
And as you know, my acne is very well under control.
When I first went on the diet some months ago, I started losing weight, and you told me I was maybe eating to little... I changed that, and everything seemed fine.
Now I gained about 2-3 Kg. and I do not understand why!
I do walk every day (stopped running though).
So again, could I be overeating while on this diet?
How?
Love Karen

the munch foods.
the munch foods contain beta-carbolines and maybe also opioid peptides. So, they can make you overeat. Not that nobody can eat munch foods wanting to lose weight, but one is more susceptible to the overeating-influence of these beta-carbolines and opioid peptides than others. (just like one is more prone to beome addicted to drugs than others)
So, if you are gaining overweight, you should decrease the intake of munch foods, until you no longer gain weight (or even lose weight).

consuming (for you) too much munch foods will make you overeat.
Another thing that can make you overeat, are too low blood sugar levels, due to purposely not eating on time.

Well, you do need to walk daily, yes. Not exercises, but nomral low-energy activities.
Sitting on your behind all day is not okay, but I guess that is not what you are doing, is it?

ah, great, I already thought so.

You occasionally might, due to the munch foods.
Lower your intake of munch foods a little bit, and see what happens.
