Swapped out my usual go-to junk for watermelon today. Slowly getting back to healthier choices

I’ve been at Vietnam for over a week now. Here’s no time for binging. Having breakfast and dinner, sometimes we manage to fit lunch as well. The food is mainly fried, so not the healthiest, but at least from fresh ingredients. I discovered a vegetable salad which I absolutely love!
Except for an ice-cream we had yesterday I didn’t eat any other sweet stuff but fruits. A few days ago I found myself craving pineapple and mango instead of usual chocolate bars. I wish it would stay like this 
Despite not binging, I feel like my belly looks like if I was pregnant, not sure why. If it’s the fried food, or maybe even the time difference, maybe different type of food 
It annoys me a bit but I hope that my shape will go back to normal when I am back in the UK. I don’t over exercise here, just do a little bit of hiking. Some days are very much “lazy style”, like today. We spent the day travelling from one place to another and then in the room because it’s raining all day long unfortunately 
Sending love and greetings from Vietnam

So after my post we went out to eat a dinner and I badly over ate. To be honest, I don’t even know how. I was just suddenly very fool, yet we ordered desserts and I had 1/2 of each. Why!!?!
So now, instead of walking and exploring the village we arrived to earlier today, I’m in the room laying on the bed in pain.

Yesterday was so painful, fortunately I managed to fall asleep 
I just remembered that we had dogs at our previous accommodation and they were begging for food. I was telling them: “This is not good for you, it’s all fried, poor your small stomach, I can’t give you any.” But why do I eat it then? What about my poor stomach? Makes me think.
Today I feel much better. I had small healthy breakfast and I will be careful when and what I eat today. I don’t want to end up in the same situation like yesterday. My health is number 1 now. I don’t need sweets and desserts. I much more preferred when they weren’t the option on the menu. I can see how easy it’s to trigger me.
Today is a new day and new opportunity to start fresh again

Have a great time in Vietnam! I had my honeymoon there! I don’t actually remember many sweets, mostly noodles, rice, fruit, etc, but all the walking around made me feel like it balanced. I did get food poisoning once though, so be careful!

Hope you have a wonderful time there. I’m itching to go and explore Vietnam. I think I would struggle avoiding the Bahn mi, apparently it’s very cheap and amazing, but bread rolls are my vice 
I would absolutely eat too many Bahn mi.
Photo looks great, enjoy!

16 days without binging. I managed a balanced weekend enjoying a meal out with friends, a healthy ice treat at the markets.
I didn’t track my calories but on Sunday, and I think that this is something I have to learn to work on. For me, tracking my calories gives me a good understanding of my food, when I’ve reached my limit, I can switch off and try not to think about eating because I’ve hit my target and I don’t want to break that limit I’ve set for myself. But on days when I decide to eat out with friends, it’s hard to track. The idea of just saying fuck it, and eating whatever creeps in, it’s like I have buggered it up, and I can’t really stay on track when I am not calorie counting. This is usually what leads me to falling off the wagon with mindful eating and less binging. I will need to carefully think about how to change this behaviour.

I’m fine, thank you. This is my problem area. Mostly sweets and cheese. My best workaround is to not have it around. I do not say no cake ever but I don’t want to have it left in my home or the cheese realizing that that’s hard for many with lots of people living in the house.

I feel you. It is a lot easier when the trigger food is not just around the corner.
I am living with my daughter and she has a very healthy eating behaviour (thank god!!!). I dont want to keep food from her just because it triggers me. So I am starting to look for more healthy choices for myself. Dark chocolate with 90% cocoa works pretty good for the situations when she ist having some sweets.
Bread is still a hard challenge for me though…
