    Haven't binged, but have eaten a bit more than my calorie allowance the past two days. Have my mum staying from another state, so we were entertaining other family. I did exercise to try to counteract my extra and it helped to curb the "I have already eaten more than I planned, I might as well keep going" thoughts.

    @melsouth1972 first of all welcome back! Good luck in Liverpool! If Liverpool is anything like London I wish you well on this goal. This American got the chance to go to London a couple of years ago. Those red buses you have seem to stop at every pub and Indian restaurant ... I'm am so drawn to beer and curry both my achilles heel.

    @gr33nslime What a great start you have to the new year! Hang in there!

    Thanks @gr33nslime! I'm doing things perfectly but this is the Definitely the best I've ever done at home! Also, got 3/3 in for this week. Lots of walking and some other leg exercises too :)

    Thank you both. I'm still doing good. Liverpool Wednesday @hillmike56 I've had the pleasure of visiting Florida a couple of times and you Americans know how to make good food

    My stomach feels so full and stretched out. I am mad at myself for caving to the urge to binge.

    Tomorrow is a new day. Sigh.

    @branbuds so understand in my latest experiences with BINGE laying in bed after a loss is the worse part. That feeling you talk about in your stomach is so unpleasant. And you just wonder why did you listen because we all have experienced it so many times and it always ends the same. And then I recall what I thought was a great feeling of stuffing all this crap into my mouth was really, really not worth it! Good Luck to you getting back to victory in this battle!

    Damn it!!! So mad at myself too @branbuds ... but you're right, today is a new day. I plan on exercising after breakfast, and have mapped out a healthy meal plan to follow for the day. I will start the 100 from today with you @gr33nslime

    The fact that we still show back up after a defeat shows we might be down but not out!

    Lets do it @Kristykris31 :) Now i have all that out of my system. After such a hiatus from binge food, i can definitely notice the sugar hangover in the morning when I binge. Its horrible.

    Trying to focus on the positives, I seem to have lost a bit of weight from having less binges... and my binges aren't as extreme as they can be. Aiming for 100 straight! My husband booked our flights for my friend's wedding so the countdown is on. Island resort wedding and Great Barrier Reef in July!

    So, I'm away with the hubby, I haven't been eating well (meals out and treats) however I haven't binged so that's got to be a victory, yes?
