Craving and binging
I'm having a hard time controlling my cravings. I try to keep bad things out of the house, one of my weaknesses is pastries. I love cinnamon rolls, cake, donuts, cupcakes, you name it, that's the kind of stuff I like. I do not keep these things at home. I try to keep relatively healthy things at home. I do really well during the work week as it keeps me busy.
I like to treat myself on the weekends and try not to overdo it, but lately I've been struggling with the cravings really bad. Yesterday we went shopping and I wanted some donettes, but I decided not to do it. There are so many calories in those little things!
Well, I've been trying to feed that craving ever since, and I'm pretty sure I've eaten more calories then they would have cost me if I had just gone ahead and gotten them. I'ts like, I can do wonderful for a week, eat all healthy, good for you foods-and then I snap. I have to have the bad stuff, and if I push off getting it, I just eat more and more and more trying to fill that craving.
Anyone else go through that? Anyone have any suggestions to help solve the issue? I keep dark chocolate on hand, and have eaten several pieces to try to help, but it's just not working.
