Anyway I was feeling kind of down about my binge, like I am self-sabotaging my progress. PLUS since I've been incorporating more healthy foods into my life, when I eat "junk" in larger quantities than usual it has a really bad effect on my body. My stomach hurts, my head hurts; it really does feel like a hangover.
Not to mention the emotional distress I feel about not eating healthy.
So my binge lasted about 3 days total, the worst being on Thursday this week. I pretty much just ate all of the junk foods I could find at home (I live with roommates), such as oatmeal cream pies, pizza, chips. In all fairness, any binge I go through nowadays is nothing compared to the ones I had back in the day. What's worse is that back then I wasn't even eating as good as I am now; I was a complete junk food addict.
So I would like to treat my body this weekend to some much needed TLC. I am doing a quick detox Saturday and Sunday to remove as much toxins as possible. Aside from the physical benefits of going through a detox, I also want to detox the negative emotional energy I am feeling. I want to release it and start fresh for Monday, to get back on track with my routine (I'll share what that looks like later on).
There are a ton of ways to detox. I prefer to eat only fruits and vegetables, drink water, coffee, and teas. I'll eat one healthy meal as a lunch (I'm thinking brown rice with steamed vegetables), and for dinner I'll have a nice tall glass of Shakeology (I have the Vanilla flavor).
So yes I go through the occasional withdrawals and setbacks, but you know what I learn, I grow, and move forward.
Wish me luck! Hopefully I don't kill anyone out of a crazy hunger rage...
