This is a big step for me. Usually, when I binge I just forego tracking because I feel like I've already failed. I was feeling emotional tonight and we had sweets in the house. I wasn't hungry or anything, but I was definitely in an emotional place. I ended up eating a bunch of peanut m&ms, a couple reese's cups, and barbecue chips. I also had a couple beers. Instead of feeling guilty after it, I made myself track everything. I thought of it as a scientific process. I can mark the emotion I was feeling tonight as a trigger, and see how many calories I typically consume during a binge. I'm also going to consider other ways of coping with the feeling. Food doesn't solve the problem. Eating junk food reminds me of being a kid and being free of stress and depression. I can think of other things I did as a kid and maybe pursue those in moments like this.
