Binge Binge Binge Binge

Have you tried walking into another room? :huh:

If you mess up once.... Grab a big glass cup of water then walk to another room, clean something... Start your routine early... Start over... The rest of the day can get better....

Totally get what you're saying...... if you make one bad choice, might as well eat whatever you want for the rest of the day and start over tomorrow. And then tomorrow the same thing happens.
Eating an extra 200-300 calories in the morning is WAAAY better than eating an extra 900 calories of junk/bad choices over the course of the day, right?
Try chewing on gum to keep you out of the junk food cabinet -- mint is best b/c studies say that it decreases the urge for sweets. Or a mini-York peppermint patty.
But don't stay with your same pattern......try something different.
You've got a goal -- reach it!

Honestly, maybe you need to see a counselor. You have a guilt eating thing going on, and you have have to find another coping mechanism that isn't a self-reinforcing, self-defeating cycle. This is nothing to be ashamed of - millions of Americans have the same problem. It IS something you might need help stopping, though. Get the help you need - you will thank yourself for being brave enough to do it.

If that's not an option for you, then you need to forcibly prevent the cycle from being possible - like Size10Againx said, but even more powerful. Leave the *house* when you get that feeling, or make it nearly impossible to get that feeling by keeping little-to-no snackable food in the house (keep only food that requires preparation). Go walking, go outside and sit on a chair on the lawn, anything to break the cycle.

Have you looked into Overeaters Anonymous? They have local meetings all over the country. If nothing else, read the book.

We may be the same person. You just described my last 2 days. It gets so hard sometimes!!! I am just starting again. I got down to my goal weight after the birth of my 4th son, but after I delivered my 5th (and last) boy, I just continued gaining weight. Ugh. Anyway, when I was successful, the one thing that helped me the most was to plan my meals. If I know what I am going to eat BEFORE I go into the kitchen, I tend to eat it, instead of grazing all day long. When I sit down once a week with my dry-erase calendar and plan a week's worth of menus, then go grocery shopping so that I have the food to follow through, then my choices tend to be better and I stick to the plan. I usually have 2-3 choices for breakfast that I rotate through, then a few for lunch (quite often I eat left-overs from dinner the night before), and I try to balance my dinners out with lots of yummy vegetables. If I plan it, I fix it, and I eat it instead of eating all day long trying to satisfy some unknown craving. I also like to have some low calorie snacks available that I can eat. I have to be honest, there are days when I count down the hours to 10 am or 3 pm for that snack... :-). Bad habits die hard...
Hope that helps, and Good Luck!

plan and log your breakfast the night before. in the morning, go to the kitchen, prepare that meal. leave the kitchen. it's simple. decide to do it and do it. (notice i said "simple", not "easy")

also, as someone else said, if you eat a couple hundred extra calories in the morning, that's no biggie. A nice brisk walk in the evening can balance that out. Plus, most people trying to lose weight are eating at a larger deficit than that. An additional 200-300 calories is probably not going to even put you up past your maintenance calories, so don't let one small infraction ruin the entire day.
