Anyone else a binge eater ??? I always think I have my eating under control until I see or smell something tempting. I always fall for it . Any advice or foods that can help ?

    I'm a binge eater but not because I see something yummy to eat. There is a difference between binge eating and overeating. They're not the same things. If you're having a hard time resisting foods then find a way to incorporate them into your day.

    If you must give in, just have a few bites :)

    Everyone gives in to something eventually.

    Just keep working on your self control so it happens less often. After a few months/years it gets a lot easier.

    Find an activity to distract yourself or a healthy snack to fight the cravings of bad things.

    If you are craving something, have a reasonable portion of it. You will most likely eat a ton of other stuff to try and stay away from what you're craving and then end up eating it anyway.
