I Pulled An Emotional Hammy! Late Night Confession About A Reversal.

In competitive eating terms, I had a reversal! This video has me talking about how I feel about it, why I did it and where to after that.
I also have the realisation that I've been doing too much. As a result I did the emotional equivalent of pulling a hamstring with the added, but now rare, bonus of the reversal. Feeling crappy but hoping I can work through it all and make it an even rarer occurrence, and eventually one day it won't happen for anything other than a gastrointestinal upset of some kind. Fingers crossed!

I am an emotional eater so I completely understand this. I had a binge a few weeks ago and I felt so disgusted and ashamed of myself. It’s a vicious cycle 😢 I just tried to give myself a little grace and keep going rather than spiralling. Thank you for sharing this with us❤❤❤

The shame and the guilt is hard. I'm trying to reframe them in my mind and talk to myself the way I'd talk to someone I love if they did something that hurt themselves. I'm getting better at leading with sympathy and a desire to help figure out why I did it, without judgement or blame. And that's not always easy! Talking to a loved one like that no worries, myself...not so much. (Why do so many people even HAVE that horrible inner critic?)
