I've been dieting since February when I got really sick and lost my appetite. The docs never did tell me what the problem was, but I have kept up with healthy eating because I feel better that way. My appetite slowly returned and is pretty normal now. Yet I wasn't tempted to over-eat because I was feeling very much in control on my healthy eating plan.
But this 4th of July holiday really messed me up. I stayed over at my parents' house and was tempted to eat rich food. Now I am trying to get back on my diet plan but I am totally disorganized and don't have healthy food prepared. Tomorrow (today, actually), I'm going to prep some healthy foods and keep them handy. But it still feels bad to have been off-plan for 3 days. I feel bloated and moody. I'm really discouraged. I thought I was through with binge eating and unhealthy foods. I really thought that something was different this time and I wouldn't be tempted. But how quickly I fell once I stumbled!
Thanks for listening! If you have any kind words of wisdom, please feel free to share them.
