I don't even allow myself cheat days because, when I feel a binge/craving coming on, it's so much easier to justify it to myself as ok to start. I just don't have the willpower to stop, so I avoid being in a position to start!
Oh yeah, I know exactly how it feels.
I've had about 3 cheat meals (that's just one meal, not a pass to pig out all day
And it turns out I was right all along because I've now had three full bingeing days. Back to the saddle tomorrow (since I won't be eating anything anymore today).
I've analyzed my thoughts and everything that's happened this past week, and I've pinpointed the things that might have triggered the bingeing. There is a pattern and I'm aware of it. I'm not in a place that knowing all that would make me completely stop myself every time it happens quite yet. But I've seen progress. And I think what's more important is that I don't try to beat myself up and feel completely down after it happens. Because that doesn't help at all. At least I've reached that milestone. Now, just keep going.
