Help! I'm Eating and I Can't Stop!
...well maybe I'm exaggerating a little but did I ever go on a weekend binge! It was like my stomach was a bottomless pit. I realized that the reason for the binge was Depression. I take Wellbutrin for depression but you wouldn't know it as depressed as I was. Nothing in the world made me temporarily feel better than food. What's worse, I felt even more miserable when the day was done and I had to go to sleep. It's absolutely frustrating because if anyone asks me why I was down or what was bothering me, I couldn't tell them because I don't know why. I can only guess the trigger was that I had alot of alone time this weekend, therefore too much time to think and be bored.
The good news is that although I am eating off Plan foods now, it is not in fthe form of a binge. I'll snap out of it and get back with the program.
Does anyone besides me have trouble putting themselves first? My Mom says that I need to make myself a priority and love myself fully. Wow, that's a tall order. I'm a nice person and everyone that meets me likes me but I can't feel the same way about myself most of the time. So, in lieu of developing this deep love of myself, I am going SHOPPING for some things just for me. Nothing like new clothes and accessories to lighten the mood. That's a temporary fix but it works for now.
Whoever has put up with reading this, thanks for letting me vent.
In hope for a better rest of the week.
Truly,
