    The thing is, thinking of my treat day gets me through the diet at times as well as looking thin in the end! x x

    I don't like to classify any food as "naughty" nor do I restrict treats to one day. If I want a cookie or some ice cream, I eat it as long it fits into my macros and calories for the day.

    Good for you, for overcoming that! :flowerforyou:

    My treat is vanilla frozen yogurt.............with magic in it (cookies and candy). I haven't had any in about 3 weeks so I've been on my best behavior. (Until next week.....:devil: )

    I think it will be brownies this weekend, or Dove Milk chocolate. As a binger myself I find it better to have bigger treats less often. I FLOVE the recipe builder...I can punch in a recipe and divide it however I like it and have all the work done for me.

    I try to keep my treats within my calorie allotment, but don't freak if I go over on occasion. How do others handle it? Do you just try and have a reasonable meal and not worry about it?

    I've realized that having a "cheat day" is a terrible idea for me. Somehow my brain sees it as, "Oooh, better eat ANYTHING junk food-ish today because you CAN'T the rest of the week" and then I kind of go crazy. Thankfully my days of having binge episodes seem to be over/very rare, but I never had any issues with wanting to binge/ending up bingeing until I decided to do a pretty strict diet 6 days of the week and give myself the one day off.

    Now, I just try to make good choices on a daily basis depending on the situation. I try to eat healthily especially when I'm by myself or at work (I'm a nurse and we don't have group lunches out/etc so other than some breakroom treats from time to time this is fairly easy to do). When I'm in a situation with treats or out to dinner/etc, I try to eat slowly, reallly listen to my hunger cues, and remind myself that if I don't eat x and reallllly want it later, I can get it-no need to stuff myself now! I've also pretty much cut out diet soda (more than anything, it seems to rev up my appetite for sweets/crappy carbs) and drink lots of water. The water seems to keep me from getting quite as ravenous. I wasn't very good at drinking H20 before and looking back I think I was frequently a little dehydrated when I thought I was soooo.hungry.

    So, my advice would just be to learn however you can to eat in moderation whatever the situation may be. When I started doing this I was so afraid of it turning into a constant binge fest-especially with me still tracking everything, it totally hasn't. I firmly believe that part of reaching/maintaining a healthy weight (and doing so without major food hangups/body issues) involves learning to eat in social situations that you haven't completely planned for and controlled.
