Yep another gain. I don’t know what happened. I was within calories except 2 times this week. I went to aqua aerobics and I have been walking around.
I do have to admit that i am still having a hard time getting a handle on binges. I’ve had a couple which include having 2 dinners on Saturday night. Yes I ate fast food burger meals (the small burger not the big one and the small size fries etc) TWICE in one afternoon Saturday. I don’t know what is causing me to binge like this and it’s frustrating me to no end. It’s like if I have the opportunity I will eat until I am sickly full. It’s something i need to work on without over analyzing it so that i don’t slip back into old eating disorder habits of restricting and fasting heavily.
I’m going to revisit SparkPeople though and go back to their idea of how many calories i should be eating each day. I thought it was a bit low because when I was tracking with LoseIt! they had me at like 1900 calories per day. This is what i switched SP to when I started back up. I am thinking now the LoseIt app was wrong and Spark was right.
I have some stuff to work on this week though and my goals did not get met so we’re carrying them over.
- Stay OP all week and try to stay op on the weekends
- Go to the gym at least 3x this week
- do strength training 2x at home
- Work on avoiding binges
I put that I wanted to TRY to stay OP on the weekends because I am usually away from home and eating what others serve me or am at a potluck type event on the weekends. While I always bring a healthy choice for potluck, I find that when I am away from the house my routines are out the window.
Working on avoiding binges is going to be the toughest one as it stands right now. I plan on just redirecting my attention when I feel like i want to head for the kitchen. I am also not going to purchase any of the 100 calorie packs again for awhile. I eat too many of them. The pre portioning doesn’t seem to stop me.
So that’s where I am this week. Hopefully I will be down next week with these goals in place.
Question – How do YOU handle binges?

When I loose it (because I do) I just recommit the next moment. Drink a ton of water, and a killer workout. Thankfully ever since my gallbladder surgery, I haven’t been able to eat very fatty meats, so that cuts some of it out. I haven’t eaten bacon in nearly 4 years. (Crazy)

How do I handle binges? I realize that it’s only for a short period of time, that it’s a temporary detour on my journey called life. It won’t last forever. I need a break, a pause, before I can resume normalcy.
Sometimes, binges come from emotional alterations. I usually feel more binge-y when that time of the month approaches. And I usually binge more late at night. How I fix the first? I don’t. That is just an unfortunate factor of life. How I fix the later? Lots of hot green tea with lemon, or I go to bed earlier
You’ve got this! Don’t focus on the scale so much right now but on yourself.
