I would like to say my life is perfect and I am 100% compliant with The Vegan Fast, but life happens. One of my eating triggers is stress. It doesn't matter if it's family stress or work related stress. As soon as stress kicks in the urge to eat cranks up. Sometimes I am able to beat the urge back and sometimes I'm not. I keep healthy foods around the house for just these types of situations. When I stress eat I eat a small bowl of fruit or raw broccoli dipped in guacamole (which is amazing by the way). And I don't beat myself up, I move on.
It's not about willpower, it's about purpose. What is your purpose for doing The Vegan Fast? Purpose gets you a lot further than willpower ever will. Purpose gets me back on track when I have a stress eating session. Purpose keeps me from beating myself up. Apply purpose to your grocery shopping habits too. It causes you to make better buying decisions so you don't end up with a lot of processed food laying around.
