Every single time I overeat, it feels TERRIBLE. I hate the physical feeling of my stomach being overfilled. How I get so hot and sweaty after, and even feel nausea sometimes if I really overdid it. Feeling just bloated and sick and gross for hours and hours after. Not to mention the mental distress of knowing I let myself down.
So, I have a really hard time figuring out WHY I KEEP DOING IT?? I’ve been overeating for tens of years now. Every time after I’ve done it I think ‘This feels so bad. I will never ever do this again!’ So how does my brain the next day completely wipe out all the millions of bad experiences I have, and start thinking it will be okay to overeat again?
I also hear a lot the advice to just not buy food at the store except things I won’t binge on. But again it’s like my brain completely wipes out. I know for a fact that if I buy a shitload of junk food I will 100% for sure eat it. But when I’m standing there at the shelves, why on earth do I always end up thinking it’s okay this time?
This is part a rant but mostly genuine confusion and a question. It makes me question my sanity, if something is actually wrong with me that I cannot seem to learn from my experiences to change my behavior. Does anyone else experience this? What do I do to make myself remember the bad parts?
