Cheat meal turned into binge weekend? In need of help bad. :(?!
Question: Cheat meal turned into binge weekend? In need of help bad. :(?
(I know it's kindof long but PLEASE READ)
I'm an athlete(note) and i workout regularly at the gym about 5-6 days a week.So Recently i lost about 25 pounds.. started last april. i'm 5'2 and weigh 100 now. i went from 125 to 100. I loved eating healthy. Nothing feels better! I ate healthy and clean for a very long time with no junk food.. but around christmas is when it went downhill. I hated watching everyone eat while i couldn't So i basically did my firts binge.. then the next day i worked out twice as hard in the gym and ate less. Then my birthday was in feb.. i binged out.. then i did the same thing.. Now its becoming harder and harder to stay on my diet. I try to eat super healthy because i'm an athlete and i like to stay slim and fit.. But it's getting to the point where i keep loosing weight and i'm not even trying. I do eat all healthy foods (oats egg whites fruits veggies fish lean meats low fat yogurts and cottage cheese) But when i try to have a "splurge" meal on the weekends it turns into an all out binge. Do you think i need to do something different with my diet? I know junk food is bad and we shouldn't consume it so much (sugar is so bad for an athlete) .. but i dint know what to do anymore. This cheat meal or relax weekend i try to do turns into binges to the point where i get sick. advice please?
Also anther thing i noticed... when i got around 108-110 for awhile i was fine.. and i didnt have these cravings and binge.. I'm thinking my body is too tiny now and isn't made to be this tiny.. and thats why im having these binges?
My stomach was very bloated and swollen monday and tuesday.... but its wed now and it's almost feels back to normal. Should i not do cheat meals anymore? Because it seems like whenever i try i go overboard... but if i dont do a cheatmeal for awhile i'm scared it will lead to anther binge.. i really don't know.

Answers:
maybe theres something in the air? i just asked this question
lol. which i'm in NO place to answer your question, because of MY question. but its also a different kind of question...
but people binge because theyre body is longing the food that you're no longer giving it. It feels as if it's starving?
its OKAY to have a few cheat days, and make sure you KNOW that, as long as you keep working out, your metabolism makes it okay to eat unhealthy a few times a week.
