    The number one thing that has helped me finally lose weight despite my emotional binge eating has been to get back on track ASAP. In the past I would get discouraged and after a binge I would say "screw it" and eat horrible for days/weeks until I decided to give it another shot. Now, if I have bad days (like yesterday- 3,000+ calories) I see it as a "metabolism shock day" and move ON without feeling guilty. I just take one day at a time, always striving for doing the best I can. As far as eating back exercise calories, I usually do. I've changed my food goal several times, but since I rarely stick with it, I don't pay much attention to it. I just try to get those green numbers as often as possible.

    My success has certainly helped me from getting discouraged but I still get discouraged, often. I just try hard to stay positive or I check out the success posts, love em!

    Ask as many questions as you want! I know how nice it is to have someone with similar struggles. Just know that even if you mess up, you can still lose weight! I veer off of my "plan" OFTEN, but I keep on truckin along, it will come off eventually, just have patience and NEVER GIVE UP!!

    This is so true and what my struggle has been the past 6 months... I have a very all or nothing mentality that I am slowly overcoming. Being at a Super Bowl party Sunday drove me nuts not knowing how to count any of the homemade goodies and I had a day or 2 off track before jumping back on. That day or 2 is still better than the weeks or months it would have been with the old me, but I want to wipe that mentality away for sure.
