    Binge thoughts entered my head yesterday.

    Sigh. We had company all weekend so I ended up eating "off plan" and overate, but did not binge. But Monday - all the binge excuses came back. Excuses like "well I already overate so one more day won't hurt" and "I deserve it after feeding in-laws all weekend and not bingeing" and "just one more day, then I will restart tomorrow". These are excuses I commonly tell myself.

    Same here @branbuds, I have that same record running through my head. Yesterday for me it was 'well done, youve made it to double digits, lets celebrate by visiting the bakery' I managed to stave it off but i hope its not the start of my demise. This is the longest I have been binge free in months, if not years.

    Got weighed yesterday, not the most inspiring result, but have to not let me start playing the record 'oh well, you are over your ideal weight, what the hell, lets eat'.... NO I will not succumb to that Mr Binge.

    @gr33nslime - got my first workout in this week. Late, but I feel pretty good about that because it was a rough week! Hang in there. 13 days is really great!! @hillmike56 - yay! 2 days. The beginning is always hard. Celebrate those daily victories. I can hardly believe I'm at 9 days after how difficult December was.

    Had a really good day today, wasn't even tempted to binge. I wonder what makes some days easier than others!

    I like the way you stay accountable and just seem to "reset" yourself after binging. I hope you're not being too hard on yourself, tomorrow is a new day.

    @lamlam2013 - The best part of having a bad couple days is remembering how many good days you've had, and helping keep perspective... You WILL rebound...you can trust in that.

    Thanks. :smile:

    @Kristykris31 what you didn't see is that I was able to fight the BINGE for 60 straight days and loose 20lbs in December and get to my normal BMI. It's been great not having to have a New Years resolution about weight except maintenance. Even came out of my man cave and have been going to live instructor lead Yoga class recently. Was always too concsciense of my weight to do a downward facing dog before except in front of a DVD. I'm staying here in the community and trying remember that the BINGE can sneak and steal my success. But thanks for hanging here in our group. Keep going it sounds like your understanding how to fight BINGE! It was my key in the battle past and in the future!
