Today was so stressful. Just felt like nothing went the way it was suppose to. Needless to say I succumbed to the urge today after fighting so well yesterday.

I traveled for a weekend in January and planned my foods ahead, even allowing for restaurant eating. The planning included bringing my laptop and recording as if I were at home. I did a great job the whole weekend I was away. But on the Sunday I came back, I binged at home that night. I thought, what an idiot. If I was going to binge anyway, I should have done it at the buffet restaurant I was at, instead of at home where I only had blah things to eat...
So I empathize with you for doing well and then having a let down. We are both much wiser for the next time when we have a major success. We'll know to shore ourselves up for what may be around the corner...0 -
Hi everyone!

And it is a monster. I had a good weekend. Today and yesterday I had the best of intentions and somehow they went out the window.
I'm craving sugar big time...I need to detox so the cravings will stop. But how do you detox when the cravings won't stop?0 -

Just reviewed my last month of posts on here.. so helpful to see my patterns!!
March:
Me: :drinker: 4
the Binge:devil: 1
Previously I defined a binge for myself as eating 3000 calories over my goal. It is so helpful to me to have done that because I ate a lot one day and really was looking at it as a binge, which led to a real binge the next day....but as I look back at my food diary, I realize that the first day was just eating out with friends and overeating due to the social atmosphere and due to the fact that I had let myself get too hungry. It was not a binge, but somehow that self-criticism did lead me to binge later. I find that if I overeat and feel really full that leads to problems. Even if the food is on my plan, that feeling of my stomach being a bit overfull sends me running for something calorie dense? Don't really understand, but another reason not to overeat!!0 -

Welcome back greeky
I don't know what stuff you eat so don't know how to help with the sugar cravings. (Maybe consider opening your food diary?) but if you're referring to binging on sweets, choc and the like (processed foods) then i'd suggest switching to fruits and not obsessing if you go over the sugar limit! I'm a mega fruit fan so I eat tons of fruits! And sadly I still don't have my binging in check but it has been improving! I'd say do anything you can that helps minimize the binging!
For me it is not being alone and just constantly reminding myself to make better choices!! But I am still having some chocolate, bread and biscuits everyday! Just make better choices if you cannot eliminate them (dark choc, low calorie breads with as little ingredients as possible etc)
It helps when I know how much others know I eat, and so when I have a loaf of bread I make sure I make known to everyone in the house that I bought a loaf (by putting it in the living room or kitchen counter) and so I try my best to practice moderation! If you're living with someone try to see how they can help keep you accountable!
But really, as long as you restrain from buying too much of them, you wouldn't have them!0 -

Tonight was technically a binge but it wasn't huge and too nasty so I'm trying not to let the guilt get to me!! Regardless I'm still logging it as a binge0 -
Internet was down last night, so I couldn't post (only had the phone app).
