My son asked me was I eating for sake of it or because I was hungry and I was hungry

Hey I think it's great that your son is watching out for you, that must feel good. Not finishing dinner is a big thing, a real accomplishment. I know it would be for me, you are making good progress.

No binge here today, but this afternoon was kind of hard. I had been feeling pretty good about my 90 pound loss and thoughts began to creep in about how now I could relax and have... well nothing specific just more food, lots more. I have to be particular vigilant when things are going well, and today was one of those days. I got past it and things are fine now.

Lets not binge tomorrow!
 
No binge yesterday. Things got busy in the evening so dinner was pretty late, I got hungry, but no bad cravings.

Let's not binge today.

Good for you Vic! Fasting and eating veggies sounds almost biblical. I am impressed with how well you are doing on your vacation, keep it up!

No binge here today, and no great temptations.

Let's not binge tomorrow!
 
Good for you Petal.

No binge here either, and it didn't seem hard. I have been a couple of days without strong cravings now, feels good. But I know myself too well to assume it will last, just need to enjoy it whist I can.

Lets not binge tomorrow.
 
Did not b/p yesterday. Did pretty good with eating. I was craving my mom’s nachos so I had a couple of the tortilla chips.

Hopefully I don’t b/p today.
 
So did not b/p today. Actually did pretty good with my eating. Did have cravings for French fries. Had about 5 and stopped myself from having more.

I have to agree with Cate, that is really great! Not even a micro binge!

Good for you Vic, you are doing well on that vacation.

No binge here today, and not too much temptation. It was good.

Let's not binge tomorrow.
 
Good for your Petal, every day without a binge is a better day!

No binge here, I actually had the opposite problem, at the end of the day I went to log my calories and could see I was well under 1,000. I had to have a banana and a couple of crackers to bring them up. I didn't particularly want to eat, but am trying to stay above 1,000. I guess the lesson is I can't trust my instincts with respect to food, but not wanting enough has only very rarely been a problem.

Let's not binge tomorrow.
 
I think I had a bit of a binge today . I was out and got delayed by an hour . I only had a very small lunch of a bowl of soup . By the time I got home I was feeling weak and shaky . I wanted to go in a shop and buy a Diet Coke ( which I should have done ) but my son who is home and was with me said you be fine until you get home . Well when I got home I had peanuts and a SW bar , my cheese allowance for the day and I ate a full fat chicken curry which was a leftover which I would not normally have . I then had some grapes .
ok it’s not a huge binge but I am not happy about it . I was unprepared and no snacks in my bag or car and I should have ignored my son and got my drink that I wanted . I’m not really happy with myself
 
Hey Petal, I see a silver lining in your story, on the plus side:
  • I am sure this was a lot less than your historic binges, no real calorie damage done.
  • You had the wisdom not to have junk in the house to make it worse.
  • You recognized what happened and posted it here.
  • You have already thought about how to stop it from happening next time.
None of us will have perfection every day, in fact a lot of days will fall short of what we want, but if we can keep working on it things will be fine. And I can see that is just what you are doing. No need to be unhappy with yourself, see it as a part of a learning process. Without that learning you can't do this. And please remember to say something like this to me when my day comes, I am sure it will. And I am a lot better at giving advice than taking it! And no wobbles tomorrow for you, right?

No binge here today, I continue to struggle to eat enough to stay at my 1,000 calorie minimum, 6 under today. I don't think that is any better than struggling to stay under my limit, but it does feel odd.

Lets not binge tomorrow!
 
Thank you Rob as always great advice .
I ate a proper lunch today so hope that sustains me . I think it was more the thoughts of if I had access to cake and chocolate etc yesterday I would have binged on it . It goes to show we can’t have access to it still .
Make sure you eat enough Rob . It’s ok I know if you are not hungry but it could catch you the following day or next which is what I notice .
Feel fine today although have a bit of headache . I read you had one yesterday. Sadly I have no peach wine to cure it .
No binge Thursday :D
 
Good for you Petal! I always get a kick out of it when people say they ate a proper meal. Not a term we use that way, it congers up visions of a meal prepared and eaten according to some strict rules or something. I enjoy the different English versions here, I suppose some of what I say probably sounds funny to some of y'all.

No binge here today, in fact it was another low apatite day. However I may have found the cause, hopefully back to normal soon.

Let's not binge tomorrow.
 
A proper meal to me is one where I eat wholesome food and it fills me . No rules or regulations though !

no binge today . Good day so far .
Hope it’s the same for everyone else

That sounds like a very proper definition! Maybe I'll try using proper that way. The one non-US expression I have picked up is sorted or sorting, it kind of fills a word need that we don't quite have. But I am not calling the trunk on my car a boot.

Good for you Petal, another day well done!

My bad, apatite is a calcium phosphate mineral that I have done some work with, and while it is pronounced (by me anyway) the same as appetite it is a very different word.

No binge here today, early on the headache kept my appetite suppressed, but by evening I was ok, and without cravings.

Let's not binge tomorrow.
 
Hope the headaches continue to regress .
No binge yesterday and fingers crossed none today.
