It was around the third peanut butter sandwich that the shame began to set in. 

I mean one peanut butter sandwich…that could be considered healthy. There’s fiber, protein and healthy fats. All good.

Two peanut butter sandwiches… well sometimes people are just really hungry and need the extra calories.  It’s a lot, but still ok. Right?

Three peanut butter sandwiches?  She couldn’t imagine a scenario that her body would really need three peanut butter sandwiches.  Worse yet, she didn’t feel like she was ready to stop.

There is nothing worse than being stuck in a cycle of behaviors that you KNOW aren’t serving you, yet you feel like someone else is in control.
