Well, I binged last night, for the first time since starting this new lifestyel. It was scary and even kind of interesting to experience that thought process of binging now that I'm more aware of health and good food and unhealthy habits. I didn't really justify it to myself, it was just like, "I want this, I know it won't make me happy, I will feel bad after, but I want it now" and I just let impulse take over my common sense. I am disappointed in how easy the choice was in that moment. It felt a little like temporary insanity to be honest. I tracked the calories, and since I had eaten lightly earlier in the day, my daily calories ended up being 2200 for a lot of ice cream and a bag of chips that I didn't even like the flavour of. I thought I would wake up in the morning and feel bloated and disgusting, but I actually look and feel thinner than I have in months, oddly enough. The scale is showing 195.5, 2.5 pounds from my Friday weigh-in, but I think my scale was half-asleep when it said 193 as it was 195.5 on the weekend before my binge as well. I am back on track and committed to staying on track, despite my binge on Sunday. I took a few before pictures in the bathroom at work this morning, I'll post them here. I won't miss these thighs when they go, or this black pants/black sweater uniform. I want to wear dresses everyday. I WILL. :) Hope everyone had a more productive weekend than I did.

One day of "bad" food choices or "binge" is easily recoverable as you will see in the days to come. I too struggle with the "crave" for certain foods or food types. Like you I'm in this for a life change towards my food selections and the quantities.
Good for you for not having a big guilt trip over this experience. It sounds like it may have been a good learning time also.
Keep up the good attitude and remember to stay strong in your quest.

binge days are needed... I totally know what you mean when you say you didn't even care for the taste...its like your eating because it is easy and you feel compelled...no worries, you'll jump right back on the wagon...ps did you run today?? I still have to run, but it is too hot right now, so I am waiting till the evening... :)
