how to maintain balance?

i’m really trying to learn to eat intuitively to heal from my binge eating and i’m struggling with maintaining balance. by balance, i mean eating somewhat normally most days and living life and not caring about calories or what i’m eating on some days.

i’ll give an example. i have a dinner reservation on Saturday and it’s all paid for, at a restaurant i could never afford myself. i’m super excited for it but it feels like i’ll ruin my day by eating the food too. sort of like a binge, except it’s not even because i want to stop eating when im full

it feels like a bad day because of the amount of food and drinks i plan to have and i have the urge to eat like utter shit until that dinner, not take care of myself and skip my workouts and then ‘eat clean’ and live properly after it. but i don’t want that, i don’t want to feel like an opportunity to make amazing memories through food is something i have to feel guilty for. i want it to be just another day, a day where i know my intake will be unknown but that’s okay because it’s not an everyday thing and it’ll even itself out over the next few days

i don’t know if i’ve worded what i mean properly but if someone understands the gist of what im talking about please help me. i just want to enjoy life without feeling like everyday has to be a binge if i eat something out of my comfort zone
