My mom makes the most amazing vegan mushroom pasta ever. Last night I overindulged way too much and felt quite upset over it, not to mention physically unwell. Will I keep bingeing on good foods? Will I ever be able to "enjoy in moderation". I felt hopeless. This happens every single time.
What I would normally do is avoid pasta like the plague the next day, skip breakfast and lunch to "make up for it", but inevitably overeating at dinner. I'd also say to myself "only salad today, no junk foods". But then I decided I need a plan of action. Everything I've tried before has never worked well enough.
So this morning when I woke up, my mom tells me that there's still pasta left over from last night and I must have some. I gathered myself for a minute and thought, "okay I need to do something different. This is my opportunity". So while I warmed the pasta up, I headed to he fridge and filled half my plate with beetroot and salad, made some tea, I ate a roll and banana too. When it was time to eat it I dished out a small portion, maybe less than 10 conchieglie pieces. Finished up, felt full and headed to my room to continue work. My dad even commented "wow look at you with the salads eating so healthy, I'm proud of you."
And damn! It's 3 hours later and I don't crave the pasta, I don't feel for it, I'm still not hungry and I'm so so proud of myself. I feel like I've unlocked some special kind of trick and you bet I'm gonna use this at dinner!
