    I'll be your temporary buddy. It's one slip-up. It won't completely derail you. So.....brainstorm for me. What might you try next time for a different outcome?

    Some strategies for all-or-nothing thinking.

    It's done. Forgive yourself and move on. Get back on track right now and don't let it get in your head.

    How can you avoid this in the future? Don't buy it and/or don't put it out where you can see it when you're tempted. Substitute something that doesn't trigger a binge. Dark chocolate, maybe?

    A friend asked me to go with her and get a Blizzard at Dairy Queen so I said yes. On the way there I thought, "In 20 minutes, all I will have left of the Blizzard is the memory and since I already remember how good they are, I don't think I'll get one." I got a diet coke, instead. What I'm really saying is that it takes a LOT of discipline to keep telling myself I don't need the extra, I only want it. But eventually the discipline becomes a part of me. Takes time, takes patience, takes diligence. I slip sometimes but I try to get right back up and do what I know I have to do. Wishing you well . . . you are on the right track for sure!
