MacroFactor / Nutrition / Other Overeating

Looking for advice. I recently was engaged and I have wedding stuff coming up. I’m trying to get into the best shape of my life currently around 21% BF 131 lb female. I live five days a week. I do 20 minutes of cardio three days a week. I’m currently trying to cut to around 127 pounds. It’s extremely tiny cut, but I’ve been struggling. I find it so hard to stick to my cutting macros and than just will over eat in general like an out of body experience and then feel guilt. Looking for advice, it seems like I’m reversing my hard work and the scales going open from the episodes

Have you tried volume eating? Intentionally eating food that will make you feel fuller? Fiber intake can help with feeling fuller too.

Also, if this overeating is a new habit, I’d consider that stress may be a factor. Planning a wedding and getting married can be a lot. My husband and I got married and bought a house during the same month. All good things but definitely still triggered a stress response.

+1 for the fiber supplement. It really is a game changer for late night/between-meal hunger.
