    My worst binge....lemme think. When I was at my lowest, I ate an entire tub of cheese puffs and washed it down with a 2 liter of Dr. Pepper. Divorces will do that to a person...

    Binge..

    I remember two Olive Garden visits ago, I had an entire personal pizza, something like 9 breadsticks, and at least three of those Andes mints they give you.

    I went to a local joint called Bub's Burgers in 2011 - I ate the "Big Ugly" which is a 3000+ calorie burger that is 22oz of beef before cooking, 1/2lb worth of bun, and three slices of cheese.. I also added in some chili cheese waffle fries and a six pack of the smaller York peppermint patties.

    Most of any "binges" I've had, I just mindlessly ate, so it's hard for me to remember stuff very specifically, though I know for a fact I've put in some 8,000+ calorie days in my time.

    I'm surprised I didn't gain more than a few pounds this last Florida trip I took in September - we would go somewhere, I would eat all of my food, and then often times I ate 2-3 people's leftover food.. I am fit but I am also a human garbage disposal!
  • hmmm if I binge really badly I stop keeping track so I wont feel even worse, but I remember eating like a bag of cereal dry... along with some granola bars and peanut butter.. maybe some yogurt in there too...
    Oh! and chocolate! if I get in that "mode" (still need to figure out why) I'll have to finish it all off

    I can't remember before I started counting calories/ watching what I ate I would probably eat huge bowls of ice cream and just crap food all day like four peices of pizza for dinner and I do remember one time I ate an entire chocolate reeses heart thing that was the size of my head . Literally. No wonder why I was fat. since counting my worst binge was about 3000 calories. Mostly ice cream:0!!

    I don't have binges because nothing is banned from my life. If I go over my calories on a day then I make up for it the rest of the week. It all works out in the end. The only way someone can have a binge is if they consider themselves on a "diet" and call foods "good" and "bad" and don't allow themselves to indulge when they feel like it.
    I think you need this:
    binge
    a. A period of unrestrained, immoderate self-indulgence.

    Isn't it amazing how some people think they have it all figured out for the rest of us? Binging is not about having food "banned" from your life. I haven't banned food from my life and that never helped me NOT be a compulsive binger. Do get a grip on your opinion.

    OMG, I am laughing so hard at this thread.... not AT you guys, but in total commisseration... I've been there! Shift work does a number on your body, and makes me a crazy carb-o-holic. It's not uncommon for me to go down to the cafeteria and eat ten White Chocolate Macadamia Nut cookies, all in one sitting... washed down with a few bowls of cereal and several slices of toast, and a hot chocolate for good measure. And the whole time I am ploughing all this crap, I am worrying that I won't have room to eat any more of it, really an insane scenario! Once I bought a whole birthday cake at the grocery store bakery and ate. it. all. I don't even really like that kind of bland cake, but it's like it became a challenge. It was talkin' bout my mama, and it had to go. Amazingly, I have pretty much got this under control, just by caring less. I ate five cookies --- so what? I'm still an awesome person. And I find that by not diving into the spiral of despair, it actually stops the cycle sooner than if I let it run out.

    I was really bad in my last year of university

    I ate:

    at home all day, don't even remember what, then I got
    Before class: Wendy's, bacon cheeseburger, bag of chips, large coke, chocolate bar
    After class: KFC Big Crisp sandwhich or wahtever it is called, with fries, and a coke

    I felt so sick, my stomach was bloating to the point of pain! I realized I needed to make a change....

    this. binging is not about a restriction. it is about filling a void. it is a psychological issue and relationship with food that is quite disgusting and sad :(

    When I was having "food issues" I would drive down a street and hit every fast food place and order.
    I couldn't say no to drive thrus would just have to go.


    This is not so much a binge but when I swam 24hrs a week I would go through a loaf of whole wheat bread very fast.
    Wake up ..swim for 1.5 hrs extreme intensity (very competitive level) eat 2 pieces with nutella.. go to school maybe have a bread sandwich and if not come home from school two more pieces with nutella and usually a late night sank would (since sometimes I would swim another 1.5 hr after school) another piece of bread with nutella..
    Crazy! But it was always worked off and I was probably same size then if not smaller... I know I was leaner but I had pretty huge muscle thighs.

    I think it is also really about control....I remember my first binge

    Halloween candy went on sale, I bought a bag of life savers (I was in elementary school, probably grade 6ish), I ate the whole thing in front of the television...and felt sick.

    oh dear lord. umm, a whole bottle of nutella, a loaf of bread, half gallon chocolate milk, some cocoa crispies, a box of 24 mini frosted doughnuts. if that wasn't bad enough, I did that after I seen I lost 3 lbs. don't know why, but I felt the need to sabotage myself.

    There are so many. The one I should probably feel most ashamed of is going out to eat at a fancy Japanese restaurant and eating what would now be a full meal. I was still hungry, so we went to Red Lobster & ate what would now be considered a HUGE meal, complete with salad, biscuits, Endless Shrimp, AND dessert. Then, went home & drank a bottle of wine. Holy crap.

    I still find myself bingeing while trying to stay under calorie goals for the day! It is really quite pathetic - I head for the sliced cheese (which I have individually portioned in little bitty bags at 90 cals a bag) then the wheat thins (again already portioned) then the honey roasted peanuts (protein doesn't count in a binge, right?) (oh, and again already bagged at 150 cals for 1/4 cup!), then on to a sugarfree fudgesicle - calories are suprisingly low btw, followed by a banana, an apple, a granola bar (100 cals.) and if I am still in eat mode - then I head for the really bad stuff - little debbies, cake and anything else sugar/carb laden in my son's cabinet.
    Binge eating is a really difficult thing to manage - and little things like stress, TOM, or even boredom can set me off. I am working on it & it is much better than the 4-5000 cals I used to consume in one sitting, but still an issue that I need to learn to handle differently.
    And, like many before me - all the talk of donuts, pizza, etc., is making me very very antsy. Gotta get off this thread asap. LOL

    oh so many to count ... usually involved pints of ice cream and / or cake. I thought I had it managed until recently...

    I took a trip to the entennman's outlet - why I don't know. It seemed like a good idea at the time. There was 1/2 box of donuts, there was a cake and a 1/2 box of double stuffed oreos consumed last week - this wasn't all in one sitting, it wasn't that bad. It was consumed over 5-6 days. Anytime I drive past the outlet - I feel some shame.

    To the few in the thread who don't understand what a binge is, let me try and explain it. This is my experience only, others may have a different experience.

    For me there's a period where I can FEEL it building. It's a tension kind of thing, and it gets more and more intense. I can fight against the snapping point to varying degrees. Thus far I've not found something that will head it off completely, but I have found some techniques over the years that make for a much softer binge. In the past, a binge would start and it would involve roaming the kitchen, opening cupboards and the fridge and eating whatever caught my eye. Jars of peanut butter would get hit so hard the PB would glob up in my esophagus and cause a wallop of pain. Cookies, crackers, cold canned pasta, frosting, candy, nuts, cereal, cheese, ice cream - all in rapid succession, as fast as I could. Out of control, just jamming food in as fast as I could. When I'm so full it hurts, the tension is gone. There's a period of being calm and relaxed, at peace. Then the self loathing sets in.

    Oh my - I think I outdo a lot of you. Compared to some 'binges' I'm not sure you will even believe how much I consume.

    Just the other day I ate:
    * Toast with avocado
    * A whole block of cadbury chocolate (the new MArvelous block)
    * a pack of family size grain waves (chips)
    * a big bowl of spaghetti blognaise
    * 4 beers
    * 6 lindt balls
    * A milkshake with a paddlepop as the ice cream
    * handful of lollies
    * toast with butter
    * pancakes
    * biscuits and dip
    * muesli and milk
    * crunchy peanut butter (on the spoon)
    Oh and a box full of shortbread. (who knows how many pieces there were but I'm guessing about 20)

    I could hardly sleep. My stomach was so sore. It's a vicious cycle. I binge about once every week and then get back on track. I can't stop, obv need help! (Also, I'm only 58kg and 1.73m so I'm still quite small. I just wish I could control my eating!)

    From memory I had a big Mac, large fries & large diet coke (only cos I don't like regular coke!!), plus a large block of Cadbury's chocolate, plus a whole stack of ice cream...then went to bed a few hours later with 3 or 4 Caramello Koalas. Only real regret was thinking, "Well I've just taken another step towards diabetes..." Sad...:noway:

    2 slices of Pumpkin Pie, 5 tablespoon of peanut butter drizzled with honey, 2 cups coffee and a granola bar.
    Wow. Now that I look at it...very odd.

    You call that a binge?

    If I am depressed or angry I tend to not eat much at all. I can't seem to connect my binging to my emotions. But That's not to say that I am not trying to get to the root of it all. When I binge I feel like a puppet on a string. I will start out with something innocent, like lunch. A sandwich or some steamed veggies with chicken or fish, then suddenly after I eat I turn into a wild animal. Nothing is safe. I will go have several spoonfulls of peanut butter, then jelly, then a PBJ sandwich, then some cheese, then yogurt, and crackers, maybe an apple and banana. I just feel like I can't pack it in enough. Then I feel terrible and start beating myself up.
    I've been that way more times than I can count. Guilt and panic set in about half way through, which seems to just intensify my eating frenzy.
    I remember once picking up a med pack of timbits for a friend as a thank you for babysitting my kids. I only MENT to eat one or two on the way.... and then I had eaten half of the box. I was too embaressed to show up with half a box of timbits, so I finished off the rest of the box, and then had to go pick up another one before I got to her house.

    After starting on MFP, I have realized that half the meals I ate would of been binges to other people, esp pasta dinners. I could easiy eat 1/2 box of cooked spagetti (and more if everyone else was full and there was meat sauce left over). I'm already used to such drastically smaller meals, the thought of it is making me full. But then full wasn't sated, full was my stomach hurt.

    NYE was pretty bad and this Sunday was fairly bad, but I still logged them.

    Usually they run me like 3,600 calories.

    The food that adds quick calories for me is cheeseburgers -_- everything else seems workable into a normal diet.
