well..the last few days have been pretty good. i teetered a bit yesterday bcause i allowed myself to get too hungry here at work...that's a huge no no. limited will power plus a rumbling tummy is a recipe for a binge. i ate a handful of chips, and promptly kicked myself for about an hour for it. then i thought. "for the love of pete, i was hungry. when thin people are hungry...they eat!" eating out of true hunger is almost an alien concept to me. anyway, i still feel i am in control, and that is the most important issue. i ate a handful of chips...not a bag of chips. ...and a candy bar..a big mac..6 slices of pizza..some fried chicken and a pop tart. so perhaps i should view yesterday a victory of sorts, i resisted a trigger....and i'm feelin' mighty fine.
You sure did have a victory. You did just fine. The old saying about when you feel like you want to binge, say HALT. Then ask yourself, am I hungry, angry, lonely, or tired? Works sometimes, but sometimes if all of them are present at the same time, our "Will" just stands up and takes over. You did resist a trigger. Good for you. Grace90
