    Binged today :( am feeling so rotten. The day started off so well even though I was tired, but this whole evening has been eating since dinner. I feel sick and nauseous from all the sugar and food I've consumed, and am so disappointed in myself!

    Hope you are feeling better now, just remember one bad day doesn't have to mean two. Be kind to yourself :)

    The Binge: 1

    I was going to put that this is a sad day, but looking at the overall picture it is a human day. I come down on myself so hard that any little slip up seems to turn my day around and I refuse to let it anymore.

    Soooooooooo-

    What I learned from the past few days and this binge is:

    1. I over extend myself so much that it causes huge amounts of stress and anxiety.
    2. It is hard for me to say NO if I feel it will have someone else be unhappy or cause them more to do.....which leads to-
    3. I put myself last and care for others more than me and in the grand scheme they always ask for favors yet do not return them.
    4. The only person that can change this pattern is me and I must make the choice that I do not control others happiness, but I damn sure can control my own.
    5. I owe it to myself to care and worry about me.

    Binge: 2 (5/3, 5/4)

    Record: Nov. 9B, Dec. 9B, Jan. 4B, Feb. 8B, Mar. 9B, Apr. 6B

    I didn't log this weekend. I'm thinking about taking a week off from logging my calories to see if the pressure is what is causing me to binge. Still contemplating. I hate that I'm scared not to track : /

    InShape13 good on you for finding the blessings and confronting them, it's a big step forward!

    Jul58 - I know the feeling, I contemplate not tracking often but tend to track just to feel safe. One day it will be easy to eat just based on hunger and not need to think about it all :)

    Ugh, not a good weekend at all! BUT I did not binge. I definitely did over eat, though. I feel like I'm finally getting a hold of the binge but just keep over eating on weekends. Oh well, I guess one step at a time......

    But :noway: ...its been a struggle! I find myself bored or stressed and opening up the cupoard for something to ease the pain...luckily my family was under foot most of the weekend, so I really had to control myself.

    What are some tips and tricks that some of you have for moments like these? Thanks!

    Sometimes when I feel the urge and can take off, I go to the gym or go to the park and walk/run. Seems to have been helping me get over the urge and has kept me from binging because I don't want to ruin all those calories I've burned.

    6th May.

    Kate - 5.
    Binge - 1.

    Overindulged a bit as it is my birthday today, well yesterday, but only just. First visit to my mum's where I did not binge. And maintained exercise. I am proud of myself and to hell with what anyone else does or does not think.

    I really wanted something last night but fought the urge and went to bed instead.

    Graelwyn-good for you not bingeing at your mom's house. I know being around family is a huge trigger for many. You should be proud of yourself. Happy Birthday!

    Tonight has been hard. Lots of triggers. But I'm dealing. Ramping up toward my first TOM since I joined here. That's when I tend to fall apart. Should be around the 13th.
