I am aware that this is a sick way of thinking... long story short i am making slow but steady progress since Feb losing weight and i am working very hard to get myself into my size 12 jeans (and then eventually size 10's)
Anyway I have been very good and haven't binged in a long while but i find i am telling myself each night "once those jeans fit i am going to celebrate that accomplishment with a binge..." it's like i'm bribing myself to keep going and then when they fit a reward is to binge
i even have a "fantasy food list" that i keep looking at and dreaming of and imagine eating. here is what is on it..... a huge turkey sub from this store wegmans that makes amazing subs loaded with lettuce, tomato, cheese, onion, and pickles....3 huge orders of nachos belle grande from taco bell... and i load them up with more sour cream and salsa at home..... a huge chocolate cake with mint ice cream and oreos.......a giant real pizza ( not a lean cuisine pizza that i pretend is real lol).....chinese takeout of fried rice and lo mein and sweet and sour chicken....cherry twizzlers, snickers, and popcorn.....
now i haven't had anything like this in ages and i have had quite a few days where i have really really thought baout doing it... but i keep telling myself... wait til school ends, hold on and be strong just a few more days (i'm a teacher and i HATE waking up the morning after a binge and having to go to work all day long with ALL that food in me)... then i can binge and not have to leave the house the next day
and also i keep thinking once the jeans fit i'll reward binge one day then go right back to healthy ways and this will be a good thing cuz that binge will up my calories and then when i cut them waaay down the next day i'll rev up my metabolism and what can one day do??
i know this is a sick way of thinking but it's all i can do to not binge everyday to know that someday i can have "fun" eating...
anyone else have issues like me?
