Ooops

I’ve been soooo good haven’t touched sugar or any ‘treats’ but I had 3 twix fingers after dinner today! I’m fine with it, which is great improvement form the guilt, spiral and binge that would of happened before, but annoyed I broke my perfect streak and coz it’s weigh in tomorrow for me! 🤬 oh well!!Xx

Hi, do you know why you went for the Twix? Did you eat enough - and enough of the right stuff - to keep you full during the day? Is it something you need to keep out of your cupboards? It's not a mistake if there's something you can learn from. I see you joined the Daily Diary today: I hope you enjoy it: it's a great place for planning and for general chat about food

I have a bit of a thing about 'treats'. The definition of 'treat' is something unusual, out of the ordinary. If it's something we have every day or every couple of days, it's not a 'treat', it's part of our regular diet.

Hey BridgeGirl , yea I’m pretty sure it was because I just have a nervous energy all day because I’m editing a compilation of video messages for a friends wedding for her to watch before the ceremony on Friday and the groom only gave me the videos last night so been in a frantic state trying to finish it! Got to my desk at 8am and didn’t move till about 11pm, except for 30 mins for lunch and dinner!

Like I wasn’t even craving anything sweet it was a pure automatic action to keep busy! Not really sure how to combat that tbh x

Good grief, that's a long day! What a lovely contribution to the wedding. I'm sure both bride and groom will be delighted with it

That does sound very busy and quite stressful too! You didn't binge so that sounds like great progress and actually well deserved.

I was off sugar and dreaded crisps for 4 and a half days and then binged last night on sweets and crisps. It's very difficult but have resolved to get back to it today. Just a blip 💪💪

I think you have to forget the negative of eating the Twix firstly because you have had a highly pressurised and stressful long day. Secondly you stopped at 3 and didn't follow it with anything else and lastly, you have recognised why it has happened and hopefully learned from it. Its a shame its the day before weigh-in but that may prove to be a reminder if the urge strikes again. Be good to yourself. Stop and move on xx

That sounds brilliant that you managed not to continue and stayed away from a guilt/binge spiral , well done 👍
