Summers are rough

It's been getting really warm here the past 8 weeks. Hitting around 70s.

And... I don't know what it is. Once the weather starts getting a bit warmer.. I am ravenously hungry.

I was doing so well for the past 9 months. I lose around 65 lbs or so. 30 more to go. Got my eating under control.

Used to just GORGE on food. But I changed my habits and I only eat when I'm hungry. And if I wanna anxiety-eat, I just eat some raisins or bananas, or take a protein shake if I want something sweet. It's worked really well, as evidenced by my 65 lb weight loss.

I realized I only needed 2 medium sized meals a day to feel full. I understood my body's requirements. I used to eat 5-6 LARGE meals (like an entire Popeyes chicken bucket). These days, I have a nice big sandwich + fruits in the morning, and a nice chicken + potato dinner at night or something

But in the past 6-8 weeks... it's gone off the rails.

I started getting Popeyes family buckets. I started getting Dominos at 2AM. I'm just SO HUNGRY. I ate an entire tub of ice cream in one sitting.

But I finally got it under control this past weekend. I just loaded up on raisins and bananas and avocados at the supermarket to help with my snacking.

I started eating my meals later in the afternoon, which helped me stay full longer through the evening.

But the damage is already done :(

I gained 10 lbs back.

Those 10 lbs took me so long too :(
