Hi gang,
OK so last night I had a binge episode on peanut butter cookies. I didn't eat the whole package I ate 3/4 of it. I think the problem is that when I plan too many things I get overwhelmed and the desire to binge eat surfaces.

I'm thinking the idea of FASTING is what did it. I ate dinner and I was thinking about not eating for 16 hours (which really isn't that long and I have done it many times before) but I think it overwhelmed me.

I need to just stick to the 3x a day eating for now until I stall out and then see if I need to go to a fast. I want to fast b/c it helps my blood sugar go down, not b/c of weight loss.

Another thing that is aggravating me is why I didn't use my skills to stop the binge. It's like my whole thought process is captured by the urge to binge and I don't pause to think about any of the consequences. I need to figure something out on that one. I always thought about making a "binge box" like a toolkit that has several things in it to look at when this happens.

Well, bottom line is I'm back on track. Last night I ate those cookies and didn't continue to eat the entire house. So at least there's that. Today it's like it never happened EXCEPT my blood sugar is way up and I probably gained a few pounds of water weight.

Thanks for listening!
Shelly
