    Logged all food every day this month.

    Yesterday was a miracle or something. I ended up eating junk in the afternoon but logged it and somehow it didn't turn into a binge. I think that "somehow" is because I feel uncomfortable from weight gain so that helped me not go for more. But I'm not fooling myself into thinking I can control that specific food just because I did yesterday. So after that I didn't have many calories left for the day but I wasn't hungry so didn't eat them. Yay! Amazing.

    Decided to stay off the scale for a week, as I know that is keeping me obsessed, crazy and in diet mode. I don't like it when I feel like that so I'm taking suggestions from my awesome mfp friends and hopefully I will get out of that craziness.

    Here's to another binge-free day! Yay for Saturday! Have a great one, my friends! :smile:

    Tip I read online somewhere:

    Challenge yourself to stop focusing on a 24-hour view("today I will have a perfect day").... View your progress over a period of a year. You won't be as devestated by a binge...the less you feel guilty, the less power you're giving the binge.
    When you give the binge less power, it's easier to put it in the backround of your life instead of the center.
    We fear binges so much because we think a few days will ruin all of our progress, make us gain 5 lbs, or send us into a downward spiral.... Think of it this way: throw every binge in the 10% “failure-basket” and just get on with doing the 90% of healthy eating, exercise, rest, and drinking a lot of water YOU WILL HAVE AN AMAZING YEAR..

    Basically; stop having “100% success days” and “100% failure days” (the days when you binge and just keep eating because you’ve already “failed”)

    I seriously believe our mindset plays a huge role in how much we accomplish.

    Ugh. Must get back on track.
    Think I am feeling depressed due to Xmas and everything being over, and back to normality.
