I have noticed I have posts made specifically for when we are tempted to self sabotage and threads of encouragement but I have not posted anything that gives you all a place of comfort after the binge or after the self sabotage. Here is a specific thread for it, now! This is a pretty simple thing; but I think it could help us all evaluate the situation better and forgive ourselves. It's okay to come here every time you fall; We will not judge! Feel free to rant about it on a side note after answering the questions -- I understand not all of us have anywhere else to go when we feel like we've failed our goals/plans. Just know you're always welcome here! :flowerforyou:
Copy & Paste:
Ok, I admit it, I had a slip up.
Date of binge/overeating :
Time :
Setting/location :
Body language during binge (e.g. Sitting, standing, slumped, tense) :
Company kept (alone, friends, family, partner etc) :
Approximate calories consumed during binge/overeating : (optional... some don't even keep track)
The amount of time between realizing I wanted to binge and starting the binge was:
Before I had this slip up I was:
Before I started eating I was feeling:
During the binge/overeating I felt: (feel free to list thoughts also)
After the binge I felt :
From this binge, I have learned :
I am proud of myself for having confessed to my binge/downfall, I can now rise above this and move on with my day.

A few quotes you might need:
"My only competition is myself; so everyday I should aim to do better than I did before because no one but me knows where I started."
"Successful people learn from their failures and move on. Unsuccessful people become consumed by their failures which keep them locked in the past. "
"Breaking a habit might seem daunting; remember -- YOU created it in the first place, so you have the power to uncreate it!"
