I guess my problem really isn’t that I binge eat it’s more this intake of cookies and pastry isn’t helping me to further my weight loss goals yet I can’t resist. I’m trying to lose a pound a week and yet when I see these foods available I end up eating them and going over what my daily caloric intake should be if I want to…
