So i've been on my diet since jarnuary 12 and lost a lot of weight. I broke my diet for one meal in March and twice in April. the thing is, after march badness I went back on plan, actually lost a bit more and had no cravings whatsoever. It was almost cleansing in a way (i know weird way of saying it but i finished the day with no regret, got it out of my system and moved on). Since April badness I cant stop craviing food. I am struggling with my calorie counting and a couple of days way exceeded my calorie total. It also doesn't help that its pre TOM and now I cant stop thinking about sugary food. I honestly think right now I can get through 3 packs of double stuffed oreo cookies. Thing is though, my april badness was all planned, i knew exactly what i was going to eat but I ended up not going to where I was planning to, didnt eat what I wanted and i htink thats whats causing this. I dont want to take a day off as I have a strict rule of one day of badness every 4 weeks but do you experience that? When you were planning to eat something and you don't and even though you a ate a lot of things that had the same level of sugar or fat or whatever, because you didnt eat the one thing that you have been craving, its like you NEED to have it?? I mean on my bad day, I ate SO much! it was a full on binge day but I still feel like I didnt get wht i wanted... which was waffles with thick chocolate sauce and cream.
Sugar is really addictive, it's like cocaine, you'll never get enough until you have one giant nostril (or are back at 95 kilos). You have lost 20 kg! That's fantastic.
If it's waffles you want, why not just take a day and eat them and have that be your entire day's worth of food?
I stuggle with the sweets too.Right now I'm eating healthy but thinking of sugar but know if I give in to it I will end up having a really bad binge so I won't just try to eat one thinking I can control it when I won't
