I’ve been diagnosed with bi polar. All my life I’ve struggled with my weight. My most recent is at 202lbs I started a new job a year ago and although I have the most flexible hours possible I’ve binged like never before. It’s so embarrassing and I’m 32yes old. What suggestions do you have???

I'm sorry to hear you're struggling. Are you eating enough calories? Sometimes if you're not you're more likely to binge. If I don't eat enough exercise calories back I'm super hungry the next day. Also, if you're on medication it can affect your hunger cues. I'm on one that makes me hungry, I've really had to put a lot of energy into NOT overeating.1
