How do you deal with the urge to binge?

This is personal and different for everyone. You'll have to try different things and find what works for you -

For me, it's yoga and tea -

I have recently restarted yoga - I had been going to a class every week - but was finding it hard to fit in. I downloaded "pocket yoga" on my iphone - and just this week finally did one of the 30 minute sessions (they even have short 5 minute sessions you can choose) ... Oh my god - I was amazed with the calm and peace I felt after doing it. I have set up my yoga mat in the basement - and for now it's my go to spot (instead of the fridge or snack cabinet).

Then tea .. I find the ritual of making it (filling the tea pot, waiting for the whistle, steeping it, waiting until it is cool enough to drink) ... Makes me pause - then drinking it warms up my insides and gives me comfort ..

Then if I'm still hungry, I eat! Then log it, own it and and move on ...
