    Just joined this group yesterday after over a year on MFP, but I am glad I did! I didn't have such a great night last night, but I did log everything (even if it wasn't until this morning). I pre-logged my full day's worth of food, including my standby smoothie I had gotten away from and a date with a friend to take her out for her birthday. And, huge for me, I weighed in AND RECORDED the gain from this last couple of week binge. I was relieved to see only about 8 lbs., instead of the 10-12 I was expecting. I think all of these things, single steps by themselves, will work together to end this last binge.

    Proactive steps today include: pre-logging tomorrow, including a lunch out with co-workers and the boss (which, as a teacher, I NEVER get), beginning to plan next week's dinner menu, entering recipes to get calorie counts, and making a grocery list for the weekend so we have tasty, healthy things to eat. I am a vegetarian with gluten, nut, and peanut sensitivities, so meal planning can be a pain as I learn to cook new things around these.

    My MFP pals are my only real source of support with my healthy eating, so I would love to add some new people from this realm if anyone is interested. Sorry this is so long, but putting it here feels like a commitment (and I am less likely to go back on it.)

    So, the day isn't over yet, so this is just through yesterday. Ugh - I am horrid on weekends, and apparently on workdays when I don't work all day. Today was relatively ok, but like I said, I haven't gone to bed yet, but I'm hopeful that tomorrow, the Me number of the Binge free numbers will go up one.

    One moment at a time.

    Thanks for the birthday wishes you guys! Made it through the day without a binge. I overate a lot though. It's hard to celebrate without tons and tons of food!

    I would love to join this too. I have been told I have disorganized eating that is contributing to B.E.D.

    Just wanted to pop in and introduce myself. I've been a binge eater since I was 5 - possibly younger. I've always had people shaming me for my weight, but as it turns out, looking back, I was a good weight for much of my childhood. Nevertheless, I have had demons from a young age.

    Now I have a baby of my own and I am fighting very hard to lose weight (I'm morbidly obese), get healthy and ensure she has a healthy relationship with her body and with food. I have a very supportive husband at home so I'm lucky that way.

    Please feel free to add me as a friend!

    I just started tracking my food April 18 so I will start that day as day 1.

    Streak broken! A number of things this weekend that made me vulnerable, then I gave myself permission to do it! Getting back on track. I really want to take this behavior off the table altogether.
