I felt really discouraged yesterday after putting on a pound on the weekend when eating correctly per my food plan. Last night I binged--I really wanted candy, but since I didn't have any in the house I ate a bunch of other carbs--popcorn, corn tortillas, crackers, chocolate chips. Then I still wanted candy, so I drove to Target and bought whoppers, nibs, and peanut M & Ms. I did buy small bags of the whoppers and nibs (5 oz each) and a 12 oz bag of the M & Ms. I ate all of the nibs and whoppers and just a few of the m and ms which didn't taste that good to me. I think the trick for me will be to binge as infrequently as possible and to eat only the carb I am really craving (in this case go straight for the candy) and to buy only a small amount so there's nothing left after the binge. Maybe then I can call it a planned treat and it won't hurt me as much as eating so many carbs and then still wanting the thing I wanted to start with. I keep praying god will teach me what I can eat and how I can do this for a lifetime and will give me the ability to continue to do this forever. I want to feel good, have energy to play with my grandkids, and have a healthy and strong body.
