Set out to try intuitive eating for this week, so far it has been 4 days and I'm messing up terribly. Returning to calorie counting tomorrow.

I binged multiple times in these 4 days.

I really thought I could do it this time… ended up overeating desserts every single day so far since Sunday. Feeling disappointed in myself for not being able to reign my cravings without numbers as a guide, I really wanted to take a break from logging because it's starting to be mentally exhausting.

Today I ate 5 desserts on top of two full meals. Prepped a good sound lunch for work and had fruits as dessert. Then met up with friends and had cake, and syrup drizzled French toast with fresh whipped cream. Had a souffle baked rice for dinner, and I fell back to the worst habit I had - secret eating on my own. After I parted with my friends, I went to a convenience store to wolf down a full sized chocolate ice cream cone and a big double chocolate chip cookie. There was absolutely no reason for me to get those on my own.

It's now 8pm and my IF eating window has closed, 8pm makes me feel safe. On Sunday I bought a pack of chocolate digestive cookies and ate the whole pack of 12 in one sitting.

These thoughts, cravings, and voices did not stop after months of training myself to eat better. So I'm going back to logging tomorrow. Heading home to weigh out all my food for tomorrow's lunch and dinner.

Tomorrow will be a better day. Glad to catch myself fast this time.
