I had a realization on Saturday night. It was one of those moments where I thought to myself, "duh, why haven't you realized this before?!?!" I realized that I will always deal with the temptation to binge eat. It is NOT going to go away. There is no ultimate cure for it. I do have the opportunity to change how I deal with these temptations. How I handle these times is what matters most. Do I allow myself to binge eat or do I "fight through it"?
I had a sense of peace after realizing this. Lately, when I have had feelings of wanting to binge eat, it makes me feel like a failure. It's as though all of my hard work in the past 10 months has been for nothing. I sure do wish there was a magic cure but I am ready to fight this lifelong battle!!
