But, know that you&#8217;re not alone and that a large portion of my audience shares the same struggles.\u2063<br \/>\u2063<br \/>Weekend overeating happens. In my experience it boils down to a few factors:\u2063<br \/>\u2063<br \/>1. Being too rigid with eating habits during the week. Undereating your needs intentionally or unintentionally usually results in rebounding on those habits and overeating on the weekend. Typically, the harder you stretch that rubber band, the harder it will snap back.\u2063<br \/>\u2063<br \/>2. Environment change. From a nearly-empty fridge, to running errands all over town, to sleeping over at your S\/O\u2019s place &#8211; you don\u2019t have access to the same foods that you normally do during the week.\u2063<br \/>\u2063<br \/>3. Outside influence. In general, people, places and plans can all have influence over your food decisions and these variables differ from weekday to weekend.\u2063<br \/>\u2063<br \/>4. Alcohol consumption. In our culture, alcohol is used as a reward &#8211; we use it to de-stress and unwind. Weekend and alcohol tend to go together and can absolutely drive overeating. Alcohol lowers inhibitions and can make you generally feel more carefree and less disciplined &#8211; suddenly your strict and structured weekday meal plan doesn\u2019t seem to matter much after a couple of drinks.\u2063<br \/>\u2063<br \/>5. Lack of structure and routine during the day. We wake up later than usual, go to bed later than usual. You might lack time sensitive obligations on the weekend because you prefer things to be fluid.\u2063<br \/>\u2063<br \/>I\u2019m not claiming that tracking macros can inherently break this cycle on it\u2019s own, but it can be a tool to help.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-72b250f elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"72b250f\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-25 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-2b6458a\" data-id=\"2b6458a\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-25 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-fe52fdb\" data-id=\"fe52fdb\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-c800f35 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"c800f35\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h3 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\"><a href=\"https:\/\/emilyfieldrd.com\/work-with-us\/\">Check out more of my best macro resources here<\/a><\/h3>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-25 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-a3827ee\" data-id=\"a3827ee\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-e35079a elementor-align-center elementor-widget elementor-widget-button\" data-id=\"e35079a\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"button.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-button-wrapper\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<a class=\"elementor-button elementor-button-link elementor-size-md\" href=\"https:\/\/emilyfieldrd.com\/macros-resources\/\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-button-content-wrapper\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-button-text\">click for free macro resources<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-25 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-c6fdb53\" data-id=\"c6fdb53\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Weekend overeating is real &#8211; and so is the guilt, shame and damage control struggle that often comes with it.
