It's been 5 successful day and even though I went 8 days as a record so far, I feel better equipped this time, to go farther. I want to talk about calorie restriction. I've mentioned it in the past, but it won't work for most people! The restriction mind set is what leads to binges. So we want to understand that we an eat what we want and won't go hungry. I've been learning how dangerous thinking of restricting myself of anything is, and by knowing I will eat well, and not be hungry is the strength I am having by getting through. It's only because my favorite foods are vegetables is why I can eat huge without going over a daily calorie amount. This reassures me that I won't put on weight (that fear that leads to purging). I've been learning about this through Katie Papo videos on youtube and facebook. I will share a video here. She can be long winded But she is a recovered binge eater with good tips to share.
