26 points. Damnit. Binge after school again. . . I said it was Dinner and Snack, but really it was all at like 4:30. Anddd I was only barely hungry to start off with.

I'm going to go run for a while now. I think you can "earn" points by working out or whatever, but I don't know about all that, so I just won't worry about it.

So, I had a major binging episode when I got home from yoga. At least I finished off the peanut butter though, so that won't be around to tempt me any more. I think I'm going to have to go with just not keeping food around my house to keep me from eating a bunch of bad stuff. I won't go by a fast food restaurant, so I don't have to worry about that. . . It's just stuff IN the house that I have to worry about.

Yeah. Fail. Again.

These past couple of days have been so awful. I've got a really bad family situation going on and it is so hard to keep it from effecting my eating. It's kind of later now and I've basically lost my appetite from crying so much, so maybe I will not have it for a couple of days and make up for today and yesterday.

I'm so upset :-(
