I know that's a weird title, especially as I ate half a pack of after eights this morning, but for the last 2 years, I binge every second saturday. Its a weird emotional thing because my kids are with their dad and I'm still struggling to deal with it all and I feel a bit lost.
Usually I'm on a diet of some kind, and I always end up eating something I shouldn't, then having a full on pig out and feeling really really bad about myself.
Today I was craving and ended up eating half the pack of after eights, but because I wasn't actually hungry, it was much easier just to put them aside and not carry on. Also, because on SW you can eat what you like of free food without having to count etc, I can still eat today (rather than thinkng sod it I don't want to starve the rest of the day).
So maybe I'll make up my 40 syns over the rest of the week or maybe I won't, but I do know that the damage done to my weight loss is a LOT less than if I'd had a full on blow out.
So thank you SW! I know this might sound completely weird, but to me, its a huge turning point.
