    Last night I fainted, knocked my head, and had to go the hospital for stitches and to treat a mild concussion.

    I am terrified my eating habits might be partially to blame, I am mad that I can't stick to my exercise plan, and I really want to have one big sympathy binge.

    I want to commit now that I will be coming back here tonight to post that I didn't binge today.

    @lamlam2013 Thank you. It's been a very trying day. I've never had a concussion before and I wasn't prepared for how much I can't do. My eye is pretty swollen, but the pain isn't bad today.

    @Hecka_Rebecca that’s so scary! I’ll be keeping you in my prayers and hope you have a very speedy recovery!

    Jan 28: another victory day, I’m finally letting myself heal after 6 yrs of vicious binging. Tonight, I just suddenly got an urge to eat the whole house down! But thanks to this wonderful support group, I didn’t let myself. I measured EVERYTHING out, recorded it, and just told myself that I could have whatever I wanted today, tomorrow and everyday. I slowed down and was mindful about what I ate and I found out I was more than satisfied at ending the day at maintenance level. Thank you so much you guys! You’re an inspiration to me, and I hope the rest of us can have such victories!

    @Nevadaden sorry but I'll repeat a line you helped me with recently "I may stumble, but I’m not going to stop getting back up" Hope to see that positive DBF tomorrow. You can do it.

    @Hecka_Rebecca Wow I had some issues with the BINGE before but nothing like that. I hope the doctors figured out the fainting issue. That sounds more of an issue than the BINGE to deal with. Take Care.

    @Czuni6 Congratulations that was a nice comment about your journey. Welcome to the group.

    @lamlam2013 not going to say too much about your success right now but I think I see your plan. Keep it up. I'd like to say I'm right behind you but then I will jinx myself.

    @hillmike56 I'm still hanging in there, but extra stress today is testing my limits. I'm going to bed so I won't be tempted to turn to food.

    @lamlam2013 I've used that method as well going to bed to stop the voice of the BINGE from talking to me. I really hate that method but it does work. Glad you worked through it.

    I had a stomach flu late last week/into the weekend. Now that I am pretty much over it and eating normally again, I am just so hungry. I am trying to balance that hunger with health and mindful eating, but the urge to binge is very strong yesterday and into today.

    @Pretty_Little_Nobody I am sorry you got sucked back down into a binge. Try to look at it like a stumble. They happen, in many different way, to everyone. As cliche as it is, it's only a failure if you give up.

    Today was hard, but I made it. Where I live we are in subzero temps, and that, coupled with some stress, could have been a trigger, but I stayed strong. I didn't fill out my food diary today but did NOT overeat. One day at a time...
