Well this challenge is a challenge with yourself. The challenge is for you to win in the fight against "The Binge". Many of us struggle with binging and a few of us have found that making "The Binge" a person has helped us fight the emotions or urge to binge.
The objective of the challenge is to have more days for you (Me) than the "The Binge".
When you have a day you do not succumb to binge urges or binge give yourself (ME) a point. When you give in to the urge to binge you give 'The Binge" a point. No beating yourself up about it because tomorrow is another day. Honesty with yourself is crucial for it to help you and others.
So we keep score with ourselves the whole month. We encourage each other along the way. Please feel free to share your ups, downs, successes, struggles, etc. You will find you are not alone. See below for format. Feel free to use it or use your own format. This Challenge keeps you mindful of binging and the daily support and accountability helps also.
Check in often. The more you check and share the better you will do for the month. So are you in? You are stronger than “The Binge.” One day at a time.
Current month 2017:
Me (or you can use your user name or real name) - 0

Even with surprise shark week, I managed to have A (as in one serving only) treat to deal with cravings. Pretty damn proud of myself ATM.4 -

I did some baking today - tends to be a big trigger for binge eating for me. I calculated that 1/2 of a piece of cake fit into my calories for today (a whole piece put me over) so I ate 1/2 of a piece.
But I thought about eating more all evening! And the leftovers are sitting on my kitchen counter. It tests my will!3 -

Overate when we went out to dinner. That triggers an urge to binge but I didn't binge.3 -

March 3: Me- 3, Binge- 0.
March 4: Me- 4, Binge- 0.
March 5: Me- 4, Binge- 1. Got really, really frustrated with the scuba class I'm taking and ended up bailing on one of the confined water sessions. I was hungry, but made some less than stellar choices for lunch out of stress/anger. Definitely some binge behavior there.2
