Moving back home making it hard to maintain deficit

Hi all,

I recently moved back home after having to leave the city I was living in, and am having a hard time managing my deficit bc of this. For reference, I’ve lost around 25-30 lbs in the past 5 months while simultaneously gaining muscle, which has been possible through high volume eating/low carb diet for me. However, after coming back home I’ve indulged for the first time in a long time, even to the point of having two binge eating episodes with cake (my biggest weakness lol). The aspect of seeing family and friends again at social gatherings involving food and alcohol, combined with eating my mom’s cooking (she is very healthy but still I don’t know the exact cals for the meals like I’m used to), has made me feel like I’m failing my weight loss journey. What can I do to get back on track/reduce the guilt of having indulged/binged? So far my plan is to eat relatively strictly for breakfast/lunch as those meals I can cook for myself and know what’s in them, and then eat my mother’s healthy cooking for dinner but be aware of portions. Thank you all so much!
