One of my worst is buying the Big boxes of the King size candy bars and eat 2 to 3 of them at a setting tell the box was gone,,, There is like 24 in a box,,,, I my husband would eat a few out of the box but for the most part I eat it all!

Ya'll know those Farmers Slams at Denny's??? I'd eat that and ANOTHER order of hash browns.
Two large orders of fries from McDonalds and a double Quarter Pounder. Six pack of Coke a day. Every day.0 -
So I remembered a few more. I used to eat the oddest things for breakfast. I'd eat a few chips, maybe a Little Debbie treat, and maybe a few spoons of ice cream to start and then I'd eat a regular breakfast which consisted of 2 pieces of toast, an egg, a bowl of cereal.
Cereal was my favorite snack too and with four kids I'd "have" to buy a few boxes a week. LOL Not the healthy kind, the sweet, sugary kind like fruit loops, lucky charms, cocoa puffs. I'd sneak a bowl between meals or late at night before bed when I just had to have something small.
Oh and I'd get into the habit of baking cookies all the time, convinced I was being a good mother baking treats for the little folk. The only problem is that I'd have like 5 or 6 at a time, chocolate chip cookies...yum.
I used to be able to finish off an entire large veggie fried rice from the local chinese place. The large could easily feed 3 adults. I'd finish it off in one sitting and then complain later about how bloated I felt. LOL These days I stick to a small order and split that in half.0 -
Holy crap, how did I miss this thread??!! These were some of my less-than-spectacular moments. Never ate all at the same time, thankfully...
-An entire large pizza from Domino's
-A family size bag of Cheetos and/or Potato chips, usually salt and vinegar
and finally:
-Those frosted sugar cookies from WalMart. I used to hide those in my food stash that I had in my bedroom during college. I didn't want my two roommates to see how much I ate, even though I was well over 200 pounds so it certainly showed.
This thread is like porno....0 -
I used to be a binge eater. I'd go get fast food and order enough food for 2-3 people, and then sit in my car and eat it all.
My worst binges were actually right after my son was born. I was so stressed out and was suffering from PPD and I'd leave after he went to bed (hubby was home with him) and just go gorge myself on fast food.0 -
I truly thought I was the ONLY person who had such food issues. I "invented" the buy 2 sodas to go with whatever snacks I was buying so it looked like there was someone else in the car or someone else I was buying for... many times I'd say to the counter person "Oh, you're out of that? Oh, crap, I don't know what she would want instead... what other flavors do you have?" And then of course, since it was for me I'd have to just "guess" at what she might like.
I did that too. I was so paranoid. I used to get McDonald's coupons for buy one combo meal, get one free. So I'd order one meal and say "And I'll have the..." as if I was ordering for two separate people.0 -
Family size bags of crisps to myself.
Entire packets of biscuits in one sitting dunked into tea.
Entire loaves of bread to myself, cut into slices - each with thick butter.
Eating sugar cubes.
So many more, but my worst was definitely:
8 pints of cider and blackcurrent (2000kcals) followed by large fries from a kebab van (could have served 3 people) covered in ketchup. I did this nearly every day, on top of my 3 (unhealthy) meals and unhealthy snacks throughout the day. No wonder I ballooned...
Kicking my drink habit was one of my first major steps to losing weight.0 -
Microwave Popcorn with two tablspoons of extra salty butter....
I love lays chips, I eat them by the bag.0 -
Cereal is a big trigger for me.... Any type of Mexican food.
I used to go to different drive thrus because I didn't want any of them to think I was a regular. Hiding any type of eating behavior is usually not a good sign!0 -
For about six months I could eat an entire large bag of chips by myself 5 times a week or I'd leave 1/2 cup of small pieces in the bottom of the bag. It made my husband nut's to pick up a bag with just bits in the bottom. Just before I started this weight loss journey I overheard him talking to one of our adult children and he said that I had an addiction. This from a 330 pound guy. I decided that it was time to make some changes August 5th. I also gave up the 5 cans of Diet Coke a day too.0

KFC spicy chicken 22 pieces
Family size fries
Family size coleslaw
I once ate a whole family sized order of the spicy wings at KFC, shame!0 -
Oh, wow, let me just list them several terrible ones:
1) pint of Ben & Jerry in a single serving (like every other day at the pit of my depression)
2) whole bags of kettle chips at a time
3) gallon of ice cream at a time. my mom couldn't trust to go to work that day because she knew when she came back, it'd be all gone
4) can of frosting, delicious.
5) make cookie dough/cake mix just to eat it without baking it.
And that's seriously only a few. I'm just, ugh. I am honestly surprised that my weight never got over 155 pounds. It wasn't every day, but still.0 -
This thread makes me sad. I've always been over weight, but I've NEVER eat like that!! i never eat fast food. I've never been an over eater. Makes me think I'll never not be fat. 0

-three bacon, egg & cheese croissanwiches from Burger King
-two chicken nacho cheese chalupas, chicken quesadilla (with a side of nacho cheese), & cheesy fiesta potatoes from Taco Bell
-double cheeseburger, large fry, mcflurry from McDonalds
-whole large pepperoni pizzas from most chains
I used to be the WORST!0 -
I've always been aware of what was good and bad, it suprises me the lack of knowledge people have. I learnt alot from my mum and taught myself. I use to eat a lot more junk I would have a whole block of chocolate in one or 2 days0

I actually made myself sick not long ago by eating this from Taco Bell:
chicken quesadilla
side of nacho cheese
2 soft tacos + quesadilla sauce
4 chicken flatbread sandwiches with bacon ranch sauce
5 cheesy gordita crunches + extra baja sauce
1 nacho bell grande w/ double meat, cheese, and sour cream
1 mexican pizza w/ double meat and beans
2 cheesy fiesta potatoes
1 diet Pepsi
and when the order taker said "will that be all for you?" I actually had the audacity to reply with "well, not all for me, but yes, that is all." It was all for me, and though there were parts I didn't eat of several items I still ate about 97% of this, and it made me soooo miserable and sick. I swore I'd never do anything like it again. Then just within this last week I had another emotional break and ate a half gallon of ice cream and a tub of chocolate chip cookie dough, and also became miserable and sick.
Monday I weighed in at over 400 pounds for the first time in my life. I'll be under 400 by this upcoming Monday, and I'll NEVER be over it again. Period. I am not going to let food be the death of me. I am surprised it hasn't killed me already.0 -
What do you mean a pint of icecream isnt a serving! Well now I know better. Candy, lots and lots of candy. I would buy it and hide it.
whole bags of skittles in a sitting. Containers of chocolate frosting using pretzel sticks as a spoon. Half loaves of french bread at one sitting, along with butter. The list is shameful and long.0 -
sneaking to the store in the middle of the night and eating all that junk... IN THE MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT!! how disgusting /...and thinking it was fun1!!10
-
Large pizza to myself and either a family size chocolate bar or 1 liter of turtles ice cream. Ive come along way although I still love the pizza!!!! but I only eat 3 peices and no dessert.0
-
Reading this is making me feel sick, but I used to eat this way too. lol0

These things stand out the most in my memory:
Going thru the Taco Bell Drive thru in a different town and then passing an Arby's (which we don't have where I live) so I had to eat again.
Standing in my kitchen with a fork eating a whole cake right off the serving dish.
Going to McDonalds in the morning and getting a Sausage McGriddle and a coffee and then hiding the bag and going thru the Burger King drive thru to get cini-minis.
Not being able to stop eating chips so I threw them away outside in the trash, getting the bag out of the trash and eating more. So then I poured out what was left so my dog would eat them.
Driving back to work from my Grandma's house (maybe 5-8 mins) to work and eating a whole row of Girl Scout cookies. This was when they were big packs like how Ritz crackers come.
I am sure there are many many more. I'm glad to know that I'm not alone in my "food" troubles.0 -
I use to down 2 double cheeseburgers, large fry and a shake like nothing. I think back to this and it sickens me.
What's yours?
That used to be my lunch at least 3 days a week!~! Now Its a 200 calories homemade chicken pita pocket0 -
Eat 2 double cheeseburgers on the way home from the grocery store to make dinner. I sometimes would make up an excuse to leave the house just to go to burger king and get 2 double cheese burgers in between meals...0
-
That 1 lb box of Sees Candies and packages of Oreos. Not at the same time tho' ........ does THAT make it better :noway:0

I am a binge eater so when my husband would go away to work it wasn't unusual for me to make 50+ homemade spring rolls and eat nothing else for days.0

Wow, that order would feed 14 people in my family when I counted it up! I am glad you are on here making a change in your life! Just remember, your life is more important than that food! Remember that every time you want to binge! Good luck on here and please don't give up on yourself!!!! *hugs*0 -
WOW to all of your food you ALL used to eat.
I can't say I have ate anywhere close to the amounts put on here.
I might have ate 4 slices of thin crust OR eat 2 regular slices. I generally eat 2 slices and 1 breadstick if that.0 -
footlong chili cheese coney with tator tots and a large coke0

When going through the drive through, I would order 2 seperate value meals with 2 different drinks because I didn't want the drive through people to know that I was really ordering 2 hamburgers for myself. Or, I would order the hamburgers different ways (one with no pickles, one with no onions, etc) so they wouldn't think they were both for me.
I can't believe I ever got that bad. Ugh.
Done that too!
Yep, me too.... and did the "eat it and replace it" so no one would know.
How insanely crazy is this food addiction? And who could put forth a solid argument that food addiction is anything short of debilitating and real?
Food addiction is crazy sick, its like a drug. I'd eat just because I was bored, happy, sad.. any reason to. I still have moments of weakness, but each day I get stronger!
when i read all these to my husband he said "man thats behavior like meth heads". He is so right. We were! GAH truth is harsh0
