Hay, I'm new to DietBet and started my first game!
Today started really good- I packed my heathy food and snacks for work, I made sure to have things that would answer my sweet and salty cravings, had plans to workout this evening and felt motivated.
And then right after dinner, I started getting phone calls about a problem at work, and with them I started feeling stressed, and turned to eating the first carby thing in sight.
It's amazing how when night falls and stress starts, I can't control myself anymore. I just give myself permissions to eat whatever I want as a consolation prize for whatever is bothering me. And I know in the moment what I'm doing and that I'll regret it later, but I just don't care.
It feels like I would never get over emotional eating. But that doesn't mean I'll stop trying. Tomorrow is a new day.
