341--really struggling right now. I'm going through some stuff that I really understand (working with a therapist), and I don't know how to deal without eating. I constantly want to turn to food, or at least not have to be so vigilant about what I'm eating. But I know that doesn't work. It's so hard! I just want to eat eat eat!
day 95
paris81 ; sorry to hear your struggling right now. Dealing with emotions and trying to control your eating at the same time is so difficult, but you are so strong and I am sure that you will get through this
Day 1. Again. I had made it to day 11 about 2 weeks ago and then the last two weeks I'll have a few good days followed by a binge. I don't even know WHY I did it last night. I'm going on a business trip in about a week and a half and I had told myself Sunday (after binging Saturday) that I could make it until the trip with no days over 2000 calories. (that's basically my maintence level) Then for some reason last night I let myself get to 2900. I know that if I'm on plan the rest of the week I can balance out that excess but still. I just don't know what happened from a few weeks ago when I made it 11 days and felt great about it and my body, to now, where I'm up 2 pounds and stuck right back in that damn cycle. I hate it.
I did stop posting here when I was away 2 weeks ago - maybe that's part of why I've been struggling. I get inspired when I read the long numbers of days some of you have gone and I want that for myself. But I'm the only one that can make it happen. So anyway. Day 1 today.
24 days binge free. I still get occasional moments throughout the day where all of a sudden i feel like "HOLY **** I want to binge right now," but thankfully that passes quickly...just have to push those thoughts aside.
i just had a big bowl of oatmeal, small apple, half banana, and still i ate some honey sesame sticks right after, but thank goodness i didn't buy a whole lot of it, like maybe 3 servings of it, so i don't feel so bad. so that would have been a binge, but ran out of the stuff. ughhh, i have to stop buying food like that.
surfergirl--i think that way too! like i just wait it out...sometimes i eat a piece of hard coffee candy, which isn't good, but gives me what i need to keep the binge away. or i eat a piece of fruit and half glass of water.
