If you've ever found yourself stuck in the binge and restrict cycle, I want you to know that you're not alone. For years, I would tell myself "Well I might as well start over another time" whenever I slipped up and ate more than I thought I should. But I've learned that the key to breaking free from this pattern is to let go of the idea of "starting over" and instead focus on finding balance. One of the most important things I've discovered is that you can always eat portions of any food that feel best in your body. It's not about depriving yourself of the things you love, but rather finding a way to enjoy them in a way that makes you feel good both physically and mentally.
