The BINGE is such an easier opponent on my own turf. But maybe having a few days of rest and relaxation gave me a new approach to thinking about how to change the habit that allows the BINGE any victories at all.3 -

Having a really rough week and fighting a major case of the "F-Its." Remiding myself that this is the only thing I can control right now, and therefore I need to. Eventually this will pass and I want to be able to look back and say "In spite of everything, I got though this one thing without failing."2 -
@Moxie42 - that's a heck of an empowering thought there, if we can make ourselves believe it. I, too, take comfort in knowing that tightening food program control gives me a little calm during the chaotic storm that is life!2

I'm glad I'm not alone in that, haha. I used to think it was weird that I'm the most on track when I'm in a funk- like it becomes the one thing I cling to. The really bad "F-Its" are a bigger problem because I just stop caring about everything and all my bad habits want to come back. But I've learned I just need to wait those out and "fake it til I make it." Doing better now. Still in a funk but it's manageable.2

@Moxie42 - that's it almost exactly for me... I must have a funk sweet spot. A moderate funk and I'm all up on my plan. Too much, and the F the world mentality takes over. Too little funk and I just don't care for other reasons. MEH.2 -

Obvious my numbers of victories against the BINGE this month don't reflect it but so postive right now. Maybe it was the long walks along the Gulf coast last week and getting away. Maybe its just spring, it was gorgerous yesterday here even from my office window. But rescripting this bad habit we fight should I call it the BINGE or BED {Binge Eatting Disorder}, I feeling optimistic there is a solution or at least a way to rewire the habit.
