So last night I (kinda) binged. For a little background, I’ve always had a problem with eating my feelings but I’ve lost 30 pounds since November with relatively few slip-ups. Last night, I had just gotten off a 8 hour shift at work and was scheduled to be back in 6 hours. I started thinking about how best case scenario I was going to end up with 4-5 hours of sleep and be miserable the next day. I started feeling overwhelmed and went and grabbed a halo top from the fridge despite the fact that I had already hit my calorie goal for the day and it was midnight. Luckily, it was a new flavor and I didn’t like it so I threw it away about a quarter of the way through. But then I started on the bag of candy that I had been carefully portioning out throughout the week. I was able to stop myself before I finished the bag which is something I never would’ve been able to do 6 months ago so I guess that’s something. In total, it was only about ~400 calories so I’m not too worried about my deficit. I guess I’m just frustrated because I thought I’d be able to say no to myself by now. Does anyone have any advice on this sort of thing?
