I'm trying really hard not to fall into the "throw the baby out with the bathwater" trap myself. I'm getting better at looking at a lapse as an isolated thing, since I know it's easier to un-do ONE mistake than a carbohydrate free-for-all. I've been making pretty good progress trying not to let guilt take me over and beat myself up over a momentary slip.

Food and emotion have been linked for me for TOO long. I can't undo it all at once, but any tips or hints would be welcome.
