    Went over calories yesterday (not logged!) but i managed to stop myself eating before it turned into a binge. Getting there.
    It amazes me that two of my triggers are noting a loss and having someone (usually a man) mention my weight loss/or looking good.

    Binge 1

    Still brain fuzzy and exhausted from new meds so still haven't been able to bring myself to exercise.

    I'm going to brave a weigh day tomorrow and see how that goes.

    Great effort everyone, keep it up :)

    It was more of a 'mini-binge', but a binge none-the-less. Have to take responsibility for it. But on the bright side, it wasn't as bad as I would have usually been and I stopped myself before I went too far. So, baby steps I guess!:ohwell:

    Days in April: 30

    Today is feeling like a weak day. Stressed and bored at work (weird combo) which means I want to comfort myself with food. Eek. I've recognized these triggers and I'm slowing down, taking it one decision at a time and patiently waiting to get home for a nap. Sometimes I put too much on to myself (I've had intense workouts the past 7 days and was planning for another one tonight) but it might be best to use go for a walk instead and not binge over the anxiety. Okay, I've made a promise to myself and that's important. I've got this.

    I had sugar cravings yesterday and gave in. I told myself I'd get one thing and log it and be done with it. Yeah right, I should know better. I do know better but my brain tricks me into thinking I can have one and control it. Damn, nothing's changed. LOL.

    The trigger for me was stress and boredom at work (those are triggers for me too, Jul) plus a HUGE resentment at work that I am having a really hard time getting over. Yes, still. Resentment is NOT GOOD for this addict. Hopefully I've learned and can deal with it without food, because the same situation will happen again, I'm sure.

    So today is a new day. I'm not beating myself up, that just makes it worse.

    I've attempted this challenge the past 2 months, but unfortunately did not stick with it either time. This month, I'm determined to do it though!

    Me: 2
    Binge: 1

    Goal: no more than 3 binges (realistically, though, I'd be ecstatic with anything under 5)

    Good luck to all!

    Binge almost won today, but I conquered it by making myself do a late night yoga practice instead. Knowing I'm going to post here is REALLY helping.
