Protein Bar and Peanut Butter Binges

Recently at night, after a day of eating relatively healthy, I cave. Protein bars and peanut butter are my weaknesses. Tonight, for instance, I binged on Quest chocolate chunk protein bars (like half a box) and one too many servings of peanut butter. My mind does not understand the meaning of "moderation..." I feel sick.

I hear ya - peanut butter and quest bar are just heavenly. But now when you say you're eating relatively healthy, does it mean only eating certain things? Also are quest bars and peanut butter usually what you eat daily/weekly or not as often?
Sometimes binges come from just not eating enough and most commonly restricting certain food, which you probably already know lol. Don't look at it as a set back, if anything that sickness you're feeling makes you want to never have it again - kinda like motivation. It can be a vicious cycle but it's just a sign that something's off balance in what/how much you're eating or even personal life.
What i used to do when i felt like that was drink water, probably around 1 bottle. It definitely helps. Don't beat yourself over it, it happens and you just have to find the cause. You just pretty much have to move on from that binge, accept you ate it all and just get back on track. These binges definitely brings you down but at the same time, the only thing left to do now is get back up. Once you know the reason for the binge, you'll be fine and you'll look back at all of this and realize it was all just an experience you went though that you overcame.0 -
