Hi MFP, I'm Ella, 23, New Zealander! I am miserable! I need to make a change. I've suffered with binge eating (never purged) for as long as I can remember and no matter how hard I try I just can't seem to get past it and I am the classic 'I've tried everything gal' trust me, you can name it? I've probably tried it. I've been diagnosed with PCOS for the last 8 years and been on the pill for treatment the whole time. PCOS has lead to depression, weight gain, extreme fatigue and anxiety. I don't mean to 'blame it' on the PCOS but at this point I'm so over it. Would love some newbies, success stories and everyone in between who has any advice for me to share! Supportive friends are all welcome!

    Welcome to the boards! I, too, have binged most of my life. Making new habits, building them one day at a time, is important. Here in the U.S. the government has just approved a stimulant,Vyvanse, for Binge Eating Disorder. I have been taking it just a few weeks and have already lost 9 pounds. You might want to check into it. Also I will send you a friend request.
