Edited (On Wednesday) to add: This is when I lost it. Not during the cooking class, actually, but after. I'm not really someone who binges, but I went crazy around 1 am. I was really hungry, physically, and also really anxious. I'm too embarrassed to even write it down. I would say I ate about 700-800 calories. :o I felt terrible and so out of control. Not a great feeling. :(

The good news is it was a bad day, not a week or a month or a year. I'm back on track today.

Nineteen, how was the cooking class?
