So not so relevant in this thread, I suppose. I think it works well for people who generally want to eat healthily but still not feel frustrated with denial - the temptation to be unhealthy isn't so difficult to power through if it's just a case of "NO! You can have that on Saturday..."

That's probably how people become pre diabetic in the first place, binge eating and wildly spiking blood sugars. It's the opposite of everything else you've advocated in the thread :/
