    Damn chocolate. I really need to keep very little in the house.
    And keep myself on a better sleep schedule. I seem to handle myself better when I'm well-rested. I know there's a leptin/ghrelin connection there so I need to use that knowledge to my advantage. Easier said than done.

    Major binge yesterday. Not going to feel shame or be disgusted, I am human, I make mistakes. One day will not undo everything, now back on track!!

    It's hard to get back in control after you binge. But each day has been better than the last. And this morning I set an appointment for therapy with a food addiction specialist. I'm praying this is the answer to finally being cured.

    Good for you on seeing a therapist. I have seen many over the years and they are worth every dime. I hope it is a good fit.

    @IsMollyReallyHungry, I hope you're right! She deals with food issues specifically so, we shall see. I keep feeling like if I can't help/stop myself no one will be able to but what do I have to lose, right?

    Dealing with some really terrible stuff right now and trying hard not to lose sight of how important this is too. It's hard to hold it together when everything else feels so unstable. But I really don't need to give myself a reason to feel bad about myself right now so the best thing I can do is stay on track.

    I hope you're okay. Just do whatever you can to stay afloat.

    I am reframing what I'm considering a binge. Since I'm on a very strict diet program right now, I've been considering anything I eat off plan a binge. But yesterday I went off plan but I did it in a controlled manner because I wanted to do it. So, as long as I can maintain that control, I'll deal with the going off plan part separately if this is what it takes to keep me sane about it all.

    Sounds like a good idea.

    That's so true! You wont feel better after a binge, not worth it. Hang in there :)
