I went to the store today to do some shopping, took me 2 hours to finish because I was looking at labels. Watching nutritional values is a task! Anyway I went shopping and sort of inadvertently shopped not only for my weeks food, but also my favorite binge foods, not good. So here I am typing in a blog to keep my fingers busy for another few minutes while I find something else to do. I started a binge today and am trying to cut myself off before I go over my limits. I know myself well enough to know if I don’t keep busy my binges can last through the night. And the night just started. I’ve done, redone, and redone again the dishes.. yes I washed my dishes 3 times, swept the floor twice, and now I think I will go dust a few dozen times. Hopefully I can just wear myself out before I make another trip to the kitchen AAARGGG! My brain is going a million miles an hour in five hundred directions. And it’s driving me NUTS!
hope you finished without a binge
You did well at the store either way - I bet in the past you bought the binge foods WITHOUT buying the healthy stuff, so that’s Progress, right?
One thing you might consider if you’re in a binge & you manage to stop is taking the leftover binge food (that you havent yet gotten to) into a trash bin & out to the trash. Better in the trash than there tempting you…
