Default Feeling good in a funny sort of way...
So I was sitting here, feeling terribly guilty because I thought I'd had a binge just now, but when I really stopped and thought about it, it hit me that my idea of a binge was gorging on a bag of cauliflower and carrots lightly dipped in hummus, and a couple of cinnamon almonds....bringing me up to a whopping total of 1500 cals today.

My usual daily allowance is 1200 cals a day, so I see how 1500 seems like a -huge- deal when I don't step back and evaluate things. It's just crazy to me how our ideas of what is now acceptable change with the diet mindset.

It's funny you should post this because I went through the same thing tonight! After my "binge" I mentally ticked off the calories and thought "Huh".
My binges now are a whole lot healthier now. lol

I hear ya, I just binged on a Fibre 1 bar and half a cup of Bran Buds ~ I may be in for a long night! LOL

I am only over my daily calories by about 150 so I think I'll survive.

Yay for us!

I love that what I think of as a binge now, I would have laughed at in the past! What proof that our lifestyle changes are becoming ingrained!

I do that too. Last night, I had a carrot and A serving of wheat thins! I even did extra exercise to account for them, I was so guilty. lol
