Hi everyone. I’m posting here as confession before I go to bed. Yesterday I went out to eat with my husband and MIL. I got my usual, a burger patty. It came with fries and those automatically go to my husband. This time, I ate some of them. I don’t know why other than boredom & not getting filled up with the burger. That led to a binge a few hours later. I searched the cabinets to see what snacks my guys had. I won’t mention the specific foods. I probably had about 200 carbs within an hour. I finished the night by eating some smoked sausage. It was delicious. Today, after work, I went to Target looking for a specific ‘treat’. Before I looked for that, I picked up a different treat (made by Lily’s). My treat was out of stock. So, I went over to Walmart and found what I was originally looking for. I ate both quickly. Again, I finished the day by eating smoked sausage. I don’t know what caused today’s issue. I’ve been thinking about this specific treat daily for about a week. About the same time that I cut out cheese, heavy cream and coffee. Could these all be connected? Did I try to give up too much at the same time? I don’t know. But I do know this is not how I want to treat my body. I deserve better. Tomorrow, my plan is bacon for breakfast and ground beef & sausage for my other meal(s). Thanks for ‘listening’ and for this safe space to confess.
