    I would hope you would seek a medical professionals help as well.

    However in my experience binge eating comes from putting too many restrictions on food or using food as a self-harming tool.

    The best thing I have learnt is to eat a little bit when I want it but log it. Seeing it in numbers makes you see it differently. I mean the other day I totalled 5000 cals and that was a 'good' binge. I was so disgusted with myself and still am.

    I read a tip about logging what you have to binge on before you do which one lets you see the cals and two gives you chance to build willpower and it does help.

    Lastly if i am not feeling too good in the morning I leave my purse at home and that way I cannot get any food when out and about without having to go all the way home by which time the moment has passed and I grab a banana when I get in :)

    All the best and think positive, we are all beautiful and all loved!
