    Hi- I'm new to this group. Have unfortunately been a binger for a LONG time. It's nice to be here with people who understand. Anyway, I've been binge free all of this month, so I guess that's ME:11, BINGE:0.

    This doesn't mean it has been easy. My recovery feels so very fragile today. Struggling with a lot of bad feelings. I refuse to allow them to win me over today. At least my toe is better and I'm exercising again. Looking forward to my cycling vacation to the east coast next week which will include a century ride on 8/24 in Delaware.

    For all those who are actively binging and honest enough to report it here, wow. You have my admiration. When I hit a bad streak, I hide, tune everyone else out, isolate, and feel so miserable both emotionally and physically that the last thing I want to do it admit it and let anyone know. So in my book, you are all brave and strong people, Honesty is a big step.

    Binge-0, me-12. (And if it wasn't that way, I most likely wouldn't have the guts to be here. Again, your honesty is an inspiration.)

    Days with no junk food: 3 (self-control with junk food is hard for me when on vacation)

    Back from vacation. Starting tomorrow the no-junk-food days should go up.

    This is exactly how I feel. Wow. Putting it out there is so hard I agree. I do really good then boom have a binge, and feel so terrible that I go in a corner and isolate. Then binge some more. It's a vicious circle. It really is all about honesty and losing the shame.

    I am in the week before I leave for my vacation so it is crazy. When things get busy, it is so easy for my senses to get overwhelmed. I am on guard for this though. Also a little worried about next week (vacation week with century ride on 8/24). My plan is to log my food every day except for the day of my ride. Well that is the plan anyways. The only thing I am struggling with is some yucky feelings that I am going to need to get help for soon.

    No, no, no Karen! don't give up! Get away from triggers and do something else to relieve the stress or anxiety. But don't give up! I don't even know you but I'd miss you...
