lunch time success

I have lived a year of counting calories for a few days then binging for a few days then repeating the cycle. I'm ready to make a change. I just have to share what happened today. I have been doing really well with food prepping healthy things to bring to work so that I am not hungry during the day. Last night I accidentally left my chicken out on the counter so I had no lunch. This morning I packed a peanut butter sandwich instead of the normal chicken with veggies that I do for lunch. My blender also wouldn't work so my morning smoothie was not an option. Talk about a day set up for failure! I work at a hospital with a yummy cafeteria just an elevators ride down. The "old" me would have binged out for lunch and continued the rest of the day, and weekend, until starting over on Monday. I did okay and ate my sandwich for lunch but was still hungry. My snacks weren't helping and all I wanted was fried food and cookies. I texted my husband about how I was struggling and was just going to go binge and then we could go out to dinner tonight, where I would binge again. He told me to be strong and I DID IT! I didn't go to the cafeteria to get anything and I plan to stick with my normal dinner tonight. I know it probably doesn't sound like a big deal, but for me, it was huge!
