Binge weekend
 

It was my birthday celebration this weekend and I made a concious decision to enjoy myself at dinner with my friends on Saturday night. It was nice and I did enjoy, however it didn't stop there....That led to the........

<<<<<Sunday Binge>>>>>

from the time I woke up to about 7pm, I ate more than I needed to. Included in that was a McDonalds meal. Now, Im craving the greasy fries, but I know I wont give in again.

Im trying to figure out why one day of eating out at a fantastic restaurant and enjoying time with friends will lead to a binge. I have a couple things going on:


~Ex BF broke up with me about a month ago but that didn't take a toll on my eating as I thought it would or might have in the past.
~Im beginning to hang out more with a guy Ive known for over a year and kinda feeling like I could seriously date him (I think this is the culprit here, maybe I'm sabotaging myself)
~My birthday - yes getting older sucks :dizzy:


I pulled myself back together yesterday and got back onto my excercise schedule this morning before work. I'm not trying to gain any weight.

I’m the same way. You know how some people have “treat days” or “treat meals”? I can’t really do that because one treat meal turns into another and then another and the next thing I know, I’ve blown an entire weekend or worse, a week or just recently…a month!

I don’t know if you really identify yourself as a person addicted to food, but I do. It’s definitely my vice and because of this, I can’t trust myself to have just a little. I always want more…always. I could be full to the point of exploding, but I still want more!! I allow myself small treats here and there, but never a full treat meal or day…not yet anyway.

But hey, it’s life. We get off track sometimes and there’s always something to be learned. Maybe there are certain foods that you just can’t eat because they lead you down the road of destruction and bingeing. For you, fries, for me, mozzarella sticks from Sonic…sigh.
