Not lonely or depressed, but something about today makes me want to eat EVERYTHING IN SIGHT!

Trying not to give in. I already went for a walk but I am conflicted. Am I bored or actually hungry?

    Probably bored. I feel the same way and I get like this every weekend because I don't have everything planned out as I do on weekdays. I just ate my daughter's last two snack bags of chips. So it's kinda good that they are gone but bad because I ate them lol

    I'm having a rough day too, Sundays are always hard for me. I just keep thinking of how good I feel and how I've come so far. Remembering this is my LIFE now, and I want to succeed and stick to my goals. Good luck.

    There are days like this but I suspect it might be out of boredom and because food is a national past time. Hopefully you are able to ride it out. I do very well for long periods and then I feel the same as you and have no conscience idea of what the trigger is. Keep the faith. :-)

    Thanks all. I am making healthy choices but I want to eat doubles and triples of those healthy choices

    I think that's natural and that's when we have to grit out teeth and get thru it. I hear ya.

    Being bored is a big trigger with me. ironically, though, I don't really get that bored unless I am at work. I sit at a desk all day and I would snack all day if I could.
