I'm on Day 32 without binging! Tonight I was feeling a bit tempted by a chocolate bar I know I have...wouldn't be the end of the world if I ate it since it's just 1 regular-sized bar, rather than a family-size one, but would like to save it for a bit longer yet. So instead I spent an hour cooking a big lentil stew and then eating a huge bowlful, before freezing the rest. It was healthy and tasty, and now I'm way too full to think about eating anything else. Yay!
I've had a few days recently where I haven't been quite as proud of what I've eaten...but still more or less on plan (or nothing that an extra workout can't fix!) and a world apart from the way I was eating before. In the month since I stopped binging and started eating healthily and swimming 5 times a week, I've lost 9lb and already started to tone up, plus I feel a million times better
Day 4 for me, it went real good til after dinner, now I'm hungry again. I refuse to eat anymore today, I'll chew gum instead. Hope everyone is doing great!!
So I fought the cravings last night...and had a binge tonight. Nacho platter..blah. I had a final this afternoon and I think it was my way of rewarding myself- which is scary because food should not a reward. *sigh* tomorrow is a new day.
I found fat free pb at the grocery store in the diet food section. the taste is similar to full fat pb, but not quite as creamy...
I miss the real stuff ALOT! Forgot to add that I had an excellent day yesterday, eat well, and have excercised daily this week! YEH ME
I felt so good today because I finally got down to 105lbs, it's my feel good weight. Then I actually planned a binge, i went to the market, got what I wanted to eat, and came home to pig out. And I did real bad, a whopping 5300 calories! I felt so bad I went for a walk and did some jogging at 9pm, really late I know but I felt I had to, it helps me digest faster and eases that bloated feeling. Back to day 1 tomorrow!
Day 1 today. I didn't do that great, I made a huge mistake when I went to the Farmer's Market and saw chocolate brownies w/ peanut butter icing. They were big(about 4 in x 2 in.) and it was buy one, get one free. I was going to buy them for my mom, but ended up eating them both in the car. I ate about 1000 cal. in 5 min. I'm so mad at myself, but I did stop there, and didn't binge on anything else when I got home.
Day 6 for me, doing well... even though I have had some very distressing news abouit a family member. I didn't binge, wanted to but no matter what is going on in my family, my goals still matter!! This is a new lesson for me..
Keep up the great work!
