Before I get into it, sorry for posting this kind of thing when it's something I should deal with personally, but it's been on my mind a lot lately.
I'm happy with how my body is progressing with my diet and exercise, but nowadays I feel so guilty after I eat. I try to stay away from food until 1-2 hours after I wake up, and then I feel bad if I eat again before I work out. But, by the time I'm done exercising and showering, it's usually just 1-2 hours before my family eats dinner, so sometimes I skip that meal entirely and just wait.
The issue is, if I have even the tiniest snack, I'll think about how I shouldn't have eaten that for hours. And then after I eat dinner, I legitimately lose sleep over how guilty I feel for eating unless I go to bed feeling some hunger.
Is this a normal way to feel when you diet? I hate myself so much if I eat more than 300-400 calories before dinner, drink less than 4L of water in a day, or go to bed feeling full/with a food baby. Honestly, I have no idea how much I eat during dinner. I couldn't tell you if it's 600 calories or 1500, because sometimes it feels like "blackout eating" where I don't realize how much I'm eating until I stop. The only saving grace with that is that I make sure the vast majority of my dinner is just vegetables with no dressing or sauces.
But yeah, I guess I just want to know if anyone else feels this way, and if it's just a part of the dieting process and I'm being a crybaby for complaining about it lol.
