OVEREATING AT DINNER


Hi, I am hoping you guys can help me unpack some things here. Yesterday I kept on my plan. One of my things to do is to eat dinner with my family. I waited until 5:30 to eat (which I am working on because I have an old diet rule about stopping my food at 5:00 with intermittent fasting) and I totally overate at dinner.

I am having the thought that since its on my plan I can eat as much of it as I want. It was like eating dinner or the foods I have on plan were not enjoyable and therefore I was justified in overeating them. I felt so much shame for overeating last night that it overshadowed eating dinner with my family and my stomach was upset all night. I am mostly writing this to get some perspective and to keep going with eating dinner with my family because ultimately that is what I want.
