Nice, pudding!0 -
2 straight nights I havent locked up food, and I got up and ate. Struggling. Heck, I cant even remember what all I ate. Giving myself a kick in the rear end & a slap in the face, not going to feel sorry for myself. No pit party. I am angry. Getting back on it NOW.

Hang in there! I had a pretty awful day yesterday myself. I understand the anger you feel; you can get strength out of that, and use it to make today a great day.
I wish I could get riled up about my binge yesterday. As it stands, I sort of feel like giving up, which is completely absurd and irrational.0 -

Thanks for the encouragement. The anger worked. Under 1850 calories for the day, logged everything, ran 9 miles, and locked up binge food so there will be no relapse tonight.

Over ate by about 400 cal including a sugary trigger food, but managed to stop it before it progressed into a full on binge and talked myself out of driving to the store for more. Counting as a win!0 -

Documenting my meals with pictures is helping me tremendously. I think it's going to help the quality of food that I eat, too. Kale certainly is prettier than bread.
Dennis, glad you got back to it. Don't be down on yourself, just use that to fuel you. You've got this.
gr33nslime - that's awesome! Congrats on beating TB and stopping it in its tracks.0 -

I'm glad you had a great day, and thank you for the positive vibes! I like that quote as well.
I didn't beat the binge yesterday; I was in such a bad mindset. However, I am feeling absolutely determined to beat this thing today! There is no way I will let my worst habits get the better of me and ruin the last three weeks of the year!0 -

I didn't binge yesterday, so that's good. This morning however I stupidly decided to weigh myself. After my earlier binges this week, I am up 4 pounds. I know I am probably still holding on to some water weight, but it was still really hard to see that number on the scale. The idea that it takes one whole month of consistent effort to lose 4 pounds, and then only two days to gain them back... doesn't seem fair, you know? Oh well...0 -
BoubouChan, I know exactly how you feel. I've been doing pretty well lately - getting in some quality exercise and not bingeing (although over calories a few days). I feel like all the weight I put on should start melting away now that I'm not bingeing, but the scale is stuck on a high number that I don't like. I'm trying my hardest to avoid daily weighing, to try and not get discouraged because all in all what I am doing is good, and I shouldn't give up just cause the scale shows ugly numbers still!
As of right now, I'm not in a great place. My boyfriend who has been staying with me for months while he did nearby rotations has moved back home for the rest of his rotations and will probably end up getting a job around there as well. Not having him hear anymore has been rough. I'm not sure I like living alone. Also medical school stress is at an all time high. I feel like I'm drowning, not just because of 2 massive exams coming up (each one of them will be the only determinant of my grade for that ENTIRE course), the dreaded "B" word is now talked about every day (B= boards AKA the test the will determine the outcome of my future career), and we are picking rotation groups and sites which is incredibly stressful. To top it all off, my ability to focus has plummeted and I have no idea what to do. Everyday I come home from class with an inability to study. I've tried taking breaks to watch TV shows, take naps, workout; but I can never focus once I'm done trying to de-stress myself either. I keep telling myself, try going to bed early, start fresh tomorrow and really be productive, but the cycle just continues. I'm basically having a panic attack now because I am SO behind in studying, and unable to do anything about it. Ugh. definitely in a rut you can say. Sorry for the super long story. Needed to vent. Of course I talk to my boyfriend about all these things too, but he is at a loss for how to help me, and it's hard to understand the life of a medical student if you aren't one.
