I lost my damn mind and pigged out on "cookie brownies", chips, and goldfish crackers. Like 1,000 calories worth in an hour. I usually don't even eat 1,000 calories in a whole day and I almost never eat that kind of crap.

I feel terrible mentally but I might honestly feel worse physically. Kind of that feeling where you wish you could throw up so you'd just feel better.

I'm going to lay down and take my punishment for what I've done. Blegh.

Tomorrow is a new day.

forgiveness starts within - forgive but don't forget.

hope you have a better day going forward.

when you have a quiet moment see if you can find the reason you "lost my dam mind". was it an event or some other external pressure. You may not find the reason but at least look back and see if the trigger is there.

wishing you well

I suppose many of us have had those days. Just don't make it a habit.

I agree with Allwet..if you find what triggered your binge, you can learn a how to avoid having a repeat " losing of your damn mind.. lol?

All seriousness it's ok to slip,, but never ok to quit. Start over tomorrow,, you got this

Whatever makes you feel badly, stop doing
Whatever gives you deep joy, this you should continue
And that is a simple, yet effective. bit of wisdom.

That’s me lately wanting to eat every bad food but of course I only take like one bite ... I think maybe stress takes over and we just eat to eat ... I’m going to refocus.. start journaling and add more liquids less snacking

Egh. I've done that too. Not to that extreme I think but just that mindless eating and stuffing bite after bite. I hope you can get past it and it doesn't happen again.

Put it in the past.. you are different now, no longer will a slip define you or lead to regression ... forgive yourself and get back on track and don’t look back !

Hopefully you'll remember how it felt and not do it again

I know exactly what my trigger was... anxiety. And what better way to handle that than eating, right?!

I've talked to my husband about it so he can help me refocus and calm down. Anxiety is a trigger for me and I know yet. Yesterday it got the best of me, but it's not winning today!

Thank you all for the support. My punishment continues today as the scale is up almost 2 full pounds overnight (I'm a daily weigher) as I retain water and my body revolts against yesterday's torture.

I ate raw celery yesterday. boy did I pay for it. I threw up six times! no more celery for me!

We all fall down, just get back on your horse and move forward.... I ate some buffalo wings and some chocolate chip cookies and boy did I pay for that, I only had 5 wings and 2 cookies but I payed for that on the toilet!!!! And I didn't feel good the next day either!!!!!! There's a price to pay for everything we do good or bad!!!!!!

Buffalo Wings, Cookies, Baked potatoes, even A Thick MilkShake , Ah Yes---I remember THEM WELL! Sniff Sniff!, ?

I repeat my mantra everyday and especially if I'm tempted to eat a bad food or too much...."no food tastes as good as being thin feels!" ?

I have had several days like this and am only 4 months post op. it makes you feel like absolute crap, mentally and physically. All we can do is forgive ourselves and move on. Maybe another activity to take our minds off wanting to eat our feelings or out of boredom. now I just need to practice what I preach lol

I did it once recently. We were stuck in traffic for four hours and when we finally got to where we were going that I was starving and I ate so much so fast and LET ME TELL YOU I will never do that again, the pain was awful.
