There are times when, for example, I really want to order pizza, or make tacos at home, etc, and it has NOTHING to do with some emotional crisis, it's more like a festiv feeling, wanting to have the fun of an excitng meal, just because. It's hard to deny your spirit from wanting to celebrate like that, but the connection to food is the question, like you said..<br />Stay strong - you've got the raines - your warrior spirit is coming out.Blue Moonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09004247933124305406noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6654199466450477041.post-18071678547129872009-08-01T23:05:27.945-04:002009-08-01T23:05:27.945-04:00Good job resisting the temptation.

Or something else I once heard; we keep eating to try and re-capture that first taste of the food, but it never gets any better than the first couple of bites. Something to think about.<br />Love you, Mom O.maryjane2744https://www.blogger.com/profile/04224730926062115917noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6654199466450477041.post-1166951422088498042009-08-01T05:08:51.328-04:002009-08-01T05:08:51.328-04:00I totally know what you mean by not being able to ...I totally know what you mean by not being able to identify the reasons why you binge or overeat, etc. I'm the same exact way.

I remember one time watching a television commercial for bread. I got the urge to make yeast bread!! I got up, made it, let it rise, cooked it and ate the entire loaf.<br /><br />Over time I finally conquered those cravings. Now I tell myself - "Girl, what are you doing in the pantry?"Diane, Fit to the Finishhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03563578757721307599noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6654199466450477041.post-52652879091734937822009-07-31T07:41:48.417-04:002009-07-31T07:41:48.417-04:00Tammy & The Giant Casserole, in theaters soon!...Tammy & The Giant Casserole, in theaters soon! Sounds like a movie I'd go see. Those impulses seem to come out of nowhere and I'm not sure we really have much control over them coming up, but we definitely have control over how we respond to them, so good for you listening to your inner voice.

Well done for resisting it just in the nick of time - phew!<br /><br />What I do if I make a batch of something like casserole is portion it out immediately it is ready and put the extra portions straight away in the fridge or freezer. Then, when I have finished my single serving, the other servings are too cold to enjoy without reheating and I that is enough to stop me. <br /><br />Good luck for tomorrow's weigh-in!Fat[free]Mehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09657562694069139967noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6654199466450477041.post-78870428615270372922009-07-31T05:30:00.618-04:002009-07-31T05:30:00.618-04:00Hmm, that is odd that you don't know what exac...Hmm, that is odd that you don't know what exactly triggered it, but it is good that you were able to stop. Sometimes, I think, we have some pleasure center in our brains that just takes over and tries to get us to do whatever it takes to get that pleasure. So mabye that's what it was. Even though you were full and knew you shouldn't eat any more, it was really tasty and so your brain was trying so hard to get more of that pleasure. *shrugs* Guess that's not helpful as to what you can do to prevent it, just keep listening to Skinny Tammy.screwdestinyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00777895976599010393noreply@blogger.com
