    Yes, I overate a little (300 calories) at a party but what's important to me is that I practiced much more control than ever before :-)
    Hooray!
  • No binges on my diet days this past week... Yay! I also changed how I kept track of my calories to something more in line with my work schedule has helped immensely. I was tracking for each 24 hour day instead of starting before my work shift (I work nights) and it threw off my count,. I found I wasn't eating to accommodate my work days so I was inappropriately hungry by lunch :)

    Tonight when I binged, it was significantly less that what I normally would of. When I went over before I would of said, screw it, I might as well make this worth it. Tonight, I think that I may have actually just overate, or slightly binged because I wasn't full, and wasn't really eating just to eat. I just ate a couple more cheese sticks than what I should have.

    Yesterday was not good - today is better. Being accountable to this blog - stopped me in my usual routine of 'well I recked my week with my binge last night - so let's continue". Thank you MFP community ..... xx

    Good today - exercise is always a helper with that. Yesterday was a BAD day ... going to a funeral was the trigger for me. :-(

    What if you go on an exercise binge and a eating binge lol ?

    did you do the exercise to cancel it out?

    I don't know. I consider a binge a binge but its not that bad if you cancel it out with exercise! :)
