Wow can I ever relate to ur post Jana. I couldnt have worded it better myself. Im an all or nothing person when it comes to sweets as well. Especially chocolate. I have âtrigger foodsâ that I cant have in the home bcuz I WILL binge on them. They dont even have to be necessarily unhealthy either (for example: one of my trigger foods is healthy cereal). But chocolate is a hard one for me. Its like once I start eating a bit of it, it plants a seed in my mind that nags on me until i eat it all. Crazy how our minds work.
Proud of u for not consuming sweets for the rest of the night, even tho u were craving them. Not easy to do!

Day 20
I cant believe I have gotten this far lol omg 
Im grateful to have the support of everyone on this thread! You all are amazing!!
Its the weekend and so I made sure to plan my high protein/high fiber meals for work. Felt hungry this morning and my mind was urging me to eat all the food I brought in 1 sitting lol BUT⌠i didnt. I ate my sandwich. Waiting a few hours and ate my snack. I have my oatmeal left and will eat that in the afternoon. So far things are going well this weekend. I find that I do better if I dont react to my urges. Instead of impulsively reacting to eating all my food (like I wanted to do today), I can respond accordingly and pause and slow down. Take my time eating 1 item (which fills me up in that moment). AND.. I find that I feel better mentally and physically bcuz Im not bingeing. So that was a win for me today 
Hope u all are having an amazing Saturday!

Very well done, @Butterflymoonwoman 
Congratulations on your 20 days strike 
I know how it feels, it feels just great, it starts feeling like a freedom, doesnât it? I am finding, that more days I have, more comfortable and mainly confident. I feel, that I can keep doing this, that I can have this way of eating as a lifestyle - that I do not have to binge ever again.
Time to time, I still worry about me binging. But the fear is weaker.
I think that you are doing particularly amazing, with your meal plans, with giving yourself enough and good nutritions, with thinking about it all, with reflecting, and with being accountable. You are a really valid addition in this group, alongside others, itâs really great to have you here!

Good morning, guys
Unfortunately, I canât say that I have one day without sugar today. But it is okay, I realised something yesterday.
When I was overeating on chocolate again, sitting next to my partner, and being afraid to offer him any, just in case in which he would say yes, I felt really ashamed about my behaviour. About eating the whole chocolate by myself in one sitting, and about not offering any to my partner, which is absolutely out of my character. I always share. The shame makes me realise how much power, sugar and addiction have over me. I realise, that I want to be freedom. This is more important to me than worrying about my weight and similar other reasons for which I used to want to give up sugar before. Now I have a new reason to give up sugar; my self-respect and my values. I just donât want to be that person, who sits on the sofa every evening, and stuff their stomach with chocolate, selfishly without even offering a piece to another person. What is that saying about me? I am not like that, and Iâm not going to be like that. If chocolate changes my character this much, I would rather not have it at all. Same like with alcohol. The way how I used to behave when drunk as opposed to sober was the reason why I managed to stop drinking. For long time I couldnât see how different I was when drunk until one day. That day was my rock bottom, the realisation was widely eye opening and I quit that day. Because I was disgusted with the person who took over when I was drunk. I couldnât even recognise myself and I donât believe it was me who was in my body when I was drunk. Apparently thereâs some truth in the words people say when theyâre drunk, well that 100% wasnât my case!!! I was hurting people I love the most by saying stuff which Iâd never say sober because it wasnât how I really felt. Anyway, memories⌠
I would also like to share something with you. Last week during my therapy, I had to write a letter from my body to myself. My homework afterwards was to write a letter from me back to my body this week. I did that, and I would like to share the letter with you. I hope, you will enjoy reading it.

My life is full and vibrant and beautiful, and, letâs be honest, also a bit exhausting. Today Iâm tired from everything Iâve packed into the last few days. Thankfully, I have a whole day to do absolutely nothing productive, and it feels glorious.
I can feel my body trying to stage a little âletâs fix this with snacksâ situation. The thing is, I had a phantastic breakfast and lunch. I am full. I am satisfied. I am not starving. My next meal is scheduled for about two hours from now. And yet⌠thereâs this inner voice whispering, âBut what if we ate anyway?â
I know this isnât hunger. This is my body asking for rest - and apparently confusing ârestâ with âsnacksâ.
So the plan: tea, couch, good book. Maybe the TV murmuring in the background. Maximum cat cuddling. Possibly some gentle yin yoga. Thatâs what I actually need.
Iâm putting this out there as my official declaration: Iâm sticking to my normal meals. No random snacking. No surprise âjust becauseâ meal squeezed in between. Iâve done this before. Many times. I can absolutely do it again.
Iâm really glad youâre here. Sending you a big, warm hug. Have a peaceful day everyone

Unfortunately, despite all the great progress and having almost 1 month and 2 weeks! without binging, now I had to reset my counter. I am not sure if it was a hinge or huge over eating, but I am more inclined to a binge
I had my dinner, than something small sweet, then a bowl of pistachios and then biscuits. When I list it it doesnât feel like such a huge amount but the feeling is like if it was looootsâŚ
I wish I didnât have to reset, but I donât want to cheat.
This sugar addiction is killin me I was doing so well when I didnât eat sugat. I MUST cut it out again. Why an I finding it so hard?
