@CATMANCAM âf**ck itâ-mode is hard. Iâm sorry it got to you. Always good to see you are not giving up @Passerina_cyanea Good job on starting meal prepping @Bomdhil You on a streak! @Kareness Iâm glad the thread - meaning this community - helped to motivate you.
229 sugar
93 UPF
100 gluten
79 dairy
3 overeating
Yesterday I started a test with butter. I did not feel triggered or experienced any cravings. Iâll keep testing. So my diary counter excludes butter at the moment.
@acromouse Iâll never stop trying! Congrats on triple digits no gluten
1 day no takeaways.
16 hours no crisps, no sugar, no binge-eating.
Well, yesterday I had another fk it moment and bought binge âfoodsâ. I am now even heavier than I was yesterday, which obviously isnât a shock. I am back in the Obese Classs III category with a BMI of 41.4. I need to sort my head out and refocus. I have therapy this morning so that may or may not help, depending on what I talk about.
Iâve rebanned myself from the 3 local shops again, if I have a hard rule that I just donât go in them, there will be no âjust _ _â, and therefore no risk of returning home with way more than what I went in for.
2 days no takeaways.
8 hours no crisps, no sugar, no binge-eating.
I already broke my rule⊠I went to the shop and bought 2 big bags of crisps and ice cream. The cravings were too strong. I think the misery of this pain from my tooth extraction on Saturday, is what lead to me seeking comfort and using âfoodâ as a self-soothing behaviour. So today, I am going to keep on top of my pain relief.
My butter test was very successful. The first day was ok. But yesterday I craved that stuff so badly and I overate until I felt really uncomfortable: stuffed, buzzing, brain fogged. The night was also not very restful. So I am clear on that and can keep to my counters.
I ate some rice with chicken and spinach (posted in the food thread) unsure on the calorie count
A chocolate worth 290 calories
Then some baked lays about 100 calories worth.
Plus probably 500 calories in drinks today
Iâm going to try to eat something else. For more calories. Just trying to convince myself. Maybe some more chipsâŠ
Yesterday I realized I was entertaining thoughts of âright eatingâ. Like if something like that ever existed beyond my mindâs insistence that it should exist. Eating only the ârightâ food, only eating at the ârightâ time and for the ârightâ reasons, feeling the ârightâ way before, during, and after eating. Having only the ârightâ thoughts and emotions around it. Brain farts all together
13 hours no takeaways.

I feel so out of control. I need to get my focus back. Still in so much pain, back at the dentist for a review in an hour. Might be why Iâm still engaging in my self-soothing behaviour. I will get back on track asap. My addict keeps telling me not to post here until Iâve racked up a week or so, but I know that he would take advantage of the lack of support, so here I am, starting again for the gazillionth time.
We got hit with storm beryl and we were out of power/internet and water for a few days, though water seemed to come back a little sooner than power/internet did. We are on a boil notice as far as I know though. Hopefully that will clear up soon.
Today i ate 2 bowls of rice with orange chicken, some watermelon, and I got a small fry when I picked up a happy meal for my little one. And another half cup of white rice with stir fry veggies
@Aleyadaisey I very much hope this post-storm situation clears up and you can get back to normal soon @Bomdhil Good job on not falling for ice cream @CATMANCAM Good job on not listening to the addict voice in your head. Do you have a plan or steps for today how to work on your recovery?
