    This past week was a disaster. Today was okay. I need to just take it one day at a time.. I'm so discouraged. Why do I keep doing this to myself?

    A Sunday surrounded by temptation with my wife making bread pudding which i had a little slice of on Saturday, resisted any urge to have a full on binge but yesterday after dinner my wife suggested a popcorn and movie night with the kids, still wouldnt have been a problem as the popcorn would have still be within my calorie intake for the day but after the sweetness of the popcorn i wanted more sweet stuff, i finished off the bread pudding and even had a bowl of cereal. Today is a new day and maybe its helped me learn my trigger might be sweet things...

    Definitely a struggle today. I wanted to just gorge myself because I missed lunch today, and lunch and breakfast yesterday. I also was invited to a friend’s house for dinner tonight and I was banking on there being vegetables for me to snack on—nope. So I got back to my place late and hungry. Plus I didn’t get in enough water, so I know where I messed up. Ate a healthy dinner, but I helped myself generously to sweets and stopped only when I realized I was beginning to think negatively about the food choices I was making. This wasn’t a full on binge, but I ate up to maintenance and I’m a little scared of how my body will react...(sweets cause terrible inflammation on me). I’m just going to let myself get back up, not wallow over it and know it’s ok that I ate to that point on a lot of sweets. It’s ok, and I’m going to act like it never happened.

    I managed to have a good long weekend. Didn't do much, just played some video games and hung out with the kids.

    I even managed to bake brownies and cookies, enjoy a little of my daughter's hard work, and not trigger a binge. Food (specifically "bad" food) used to be such a bad thing for me. I could do none of it. Now it's seeming more like something that I can eat without fear. I still use causion, but it's nice to have back.

    I'm not even mad. I stayed home from work sick, and over ate, then gave up. I'm consitently getting more than 10 days between binges, and they don't tend to turn into multi day screw ups any more.

    It's progress, which is all I'm looking for.
