I went on a serious binge yesterday! :( I was home alone for about an hour after work, and I ate 4 chocolate almond clusters (90 cal. each) and at least one serving of cashews :S The scary thing is that I wasn't even hungry when I came home, I had just eaten a banana before leaving work. But knowing that I was alone and there was no one around to see me, I felt like I had a free pass to eat anything and everything in sight! Of course, I felt sick and bloated immediately after stuffing my face, and the guilt was even worse. I hate the feelings that arise after these binges. I feel weak and powerless and very sneaky. I just don't know where my motivation has gone lately. I want so badly to get back on track and I feel like I'm in a constant battle with myself and my bad habits. I realize that I'm at a healthy weight according to my BMI of 23.4 and I should be happy with that, but I am still at the higher end of 'normal' and would like to have a BMI closer to 22. And honestly, how hard could it be to lose 5 pounds? I lost 25 pounds in under a year by simply making minimal changes to my eating habits! There is absolutely no reason that I can't lose the last 5 pounds and get a toned, hot body!

is there a way you can avoid having treats in the house? also, i find logging on FS really helpful- makes you accountable. if you know you're going to have to write it down and count it, it might deter you from eating it.
it's okay, we all slip up sometimes. what's important is to remember how bad you felt after that and to work on eating right, exercising, and keeping a healthy balance!

Unfortunately, my husband and I are currently living with his parents, and they both have a serious sweet tooth and believe that there should always be sweets in the house. My mother-in-law in particular will offer me pastries multiple times a day and ice cream after dinner and will practically force-feed me. Just yesterday we had afternoon tea together, she asked me if I'd like a pastry, I said 'No thanks' and she got one out and set it directly in front of me! Of course, once it was in front of me I wanted to eat it! I don't blame anyone but myself but I certainly wish I had more support. I do log what I eat using a different website's app (the FatSecret app disappeared from my phone and the android market months ago) but sometimes my cravings override my conscious, and I just eat without thinking! I have done very well today though, I've stuck to my planned snacks, and did an intense lower body circuit workout this morning. Tonight I'll be in the garage painting my hubby's darkroom. I have a two hour yoga class tomorrow and a hike with my husband on Sunday, so this should be a great weekend!
