Struggling with hunger

Over the past year, something has happened to me that has scared me. I have become somewhat of a binge eater. Now by binge I don't mean platefuls of food. What I mean is I will get this feeling over me and just stuff my face. And never feel full. I have always had problems with eating but not like this.

I am learning to diagnose my hunger. I should record it more properly. But for now its self diagnosis unrecorded. I am becoming more aware of when my hunger is satisfied. I am trying not to eat when I don't need to. A lifetime habit is hard to break and this new trend of stuffing my face even harder.

But its a step when I go to a restaurant with my partner and I don't order the cheap deal. Instead I just order an appetizer and it fills me. I was happy with that progress.

I really want to be successful this time. I am happy. Today I got several fat and sugar free puddings which will help me elminate some of the high fat snacks I have been eating as of late.

The hardest part of changing eating habits is being honest with yourself. Still trying to win that battle. I will keep you posted.
