A month into my diet, I planned on “rewarding” myself on my birthday. Until yesterday, I stuck to a 1700 calorie deficit for 3 months straight. So when my birthday came around the plan was to eat 2 slices of pizza and a slice or 2 of cake. Nothing too crazy, but definitely a big deal for me since I’ve been completely staying away from these foods for a while. Well, after a few unplanned beers later, I suddenly couldn’t control myself and started drunk binge eating. This is something I had completely forget triggered my unhealthy habits. I ate about a whole container of chocolate chip ahoys, 2 different bags of chips, and an extra slice of pizza. Calorie count was easily over 3000 or so.
I don’t regret cheating on my diet. It was my birthday, but I did go a little overboard. Something positive did come out of this though. I had forgotten how bad you physically feel after consuming a bunch of junk food. Before my diet I would eat junk food on a daily basis. You get used to the oversaturated feeling you get afterwards. I realized I don’t want to feel this way again anytime soon.
Good food makes you feel good and bad food will make you feel bad. I think this is a very simple fundamental fact that might help people like me stay on track. I think it’s okay to have a cheat meal every now and then. But when you go overboard, you’ll regret the unnecessary weight that was gained and also the awful feeling in your stomach minutes after eating.
