Resisting the urge to binge

I usually want to binge in evenings, so I try to convince myself that it's a new day in a couple hours and then I will be able to have plenty of new guilt free calories. Take a shower, drink tea or any zero-kcal lemonade (I know it's bad but it's the last resort 1x month and a binge is definitely worse) , go to gym, watch a movie, call a friend, basically everything that can distract me. Or figure out what's the emotional issue that's causing the binge and try to fix that.

I gained weight with night time overeating. It’s a terrible habit I have. Even after dieting I would still do it once a week, but I logged all the calories. So over time the calories I was over eating became less and less as the weeks went by. It took about 7 months, but I finally stopped doing it. I found the feeling I got from over eating wasn’t as good as the feeling I got the next morning from conquering the urge to over eat. I still have nights I just want to stuff my face, but remind myself it won’t make me feel better. If I still need to fill that hole, I drink a cup of decaf coffee with sweet and low, and a tablespoon of half and half. It always makes me feel better. It’s warm and has fat, but is only 20 calories.
