So normally I'm craming my face with sweets or what have you but today I fixed a bag of steamable sweet peas... I know, I know doesn't sound that great but before you know it almost the whole bag was gone... HAHA I crack myself up... that can't be normal :laugh:

Does anyone else binge on healthy food???

    I ate almost an entire bag of grapes yesterday. It started when I left the grocery store and by dinner they were just about gone. Couldn't believe it, they were just so good!

    ohhhh brother. Binging is binging. It could be brussels sprouts, it could be wood chips. It's the hand-to-mouth habit mindlessness that's the problem, not what's in the hand.

    I binge on watermelon, broccoli, and spinach. I LOVE spinach. I will open a can, warm it in the microwave, and eat the entire thing for dinner....YUM!

    All things in moderation right? I must say however, if your going to binge, better it be sweet peas (yum) than a chocolate bar, right? :flowerforyou:

    :drinker: :drinker: AMEN! AMEN! Boy, talk about not being able to see the silver lining, huh? I'll take "binging" on peas, brussels sprouts, cauliflower, spinach ANYDAY instead of the fat and calorie riddled foot that is the "norm" for our unhealthy society. I say BRAVO TO ALL HEALTHY BINGERS! BINGE ON!!!!!!!:drinker: :heart: :laugh:

    THANKS!!! It's not like I binged on sweet peas and make myself sick to my stomach... and the bag isn't overstuffed with them so it was enough to fill me up and I ate the last little bit this morning... I figured I'd pat myself on the back for binging on a veggie rather than my normal binging before the lifestyle change of candybars! :drinker:

    I think I agree with the "binging is binging" mentality, and yes while it is a lot better to binge on peas, watermelon, etc., it is still reinforcing the unhealthy behavior. I think eating healthy is not just about what we eat but the behaviors surrounding eating.

    I am NOT knocking anyone for their healthy food/low calorie food binging. I am still trying to deal with this habit myself. I could eat those 10 calories Jellos all day, which is okay for now, but I hope to one day wean myself off of this behavior.

    Well, if Jello is your "vice" and I were you, I'd have to think twice about binging on that, too! I think if you ask a doctor...ANY DOCTOR... what food is the best thing to "bing eat" with they'll agree with us on the spinach, cucumbers, peas, etc. Just saying...

    I'm going binge on a BOTTLE OR TWO OF COLD WATER! :devil: Call the doctor!

    I LOVE THE WAY YOU THINK! MAYBE I SHOULDN'T HAVE STARTED THIS THREAD... I'M GETTING A LITTLE PISSED! :mad:

    Blah, blah, blah binging is binging... that's fine to say if someone is binging on junk... I had 3/4 of a bag of sweat freakin' peas and that's it... nothing else for my snack/dinner. It was very low cal and very healthy...
