I had my first binge of June yesterday :-(
Cravings setting in big time today (they always do after a binge the day before) so I'm hoping I can resist the temptation to continue it.

Since June 1:
Me: 3

Last night was a struggle but I managed to keep myself busy and made it through without bingeing. My husband and I had a healthy dinner together and then stopped at our bank, which is located in a grocery store. As soon as we walked into the store my mind started racing thinking about the different foods I could buy even though I had just had dinner and was full. I'm glad my husband was with me. We went right to the frozen fruit section and got what we needed, paid for it and left. I woke up this morning and had thoughts of bingeing again, but so far I have been able to avoid doing so. I planned my food for today and then found out my husband has to work late so my plan for dinner will not work. I will be home alone after work for a little while so I am going to pre-plan what I am going to eat on my own and pray that I can stick to it.0 -
Happy hump day!!!
@ Kelbelzz - Excellent!
@ priorm123 - Just forget about yesterday and do your best to get back on track. You are right though, once you start binging it is harder the next not to have urges to continue to binge.
@ MJ7910 - Excellent!!
@ marylommis - Grocery stores are not good for me either. I usually save me some calories for the grocery store and comit to buy only one extra item if any that is not on my list. This has helped me not to binge most times when in the store. Since I am trying to keep fresh fruit/veggies I end up going at least twice a week or more. I agree it always help when you are in the store with someone else too. Plan for tonight and you will be fine.
Sending positive thoughts and vibes your way peeps!!! One day at a time!! :flowerforyou:0 -

I often have this problem too. IMO it is because our illnesses aren't about food, they are about our behavior. It takes practice to stop feeling guilty about indulging.0 -

At home and out and about running errands for convention. Had some binge behaviors going despite not being hungry. Not too bad but can not count it as a ME day, but I have had much worse days. I did fight it and made some good strides but I did not win today. There is always tomorrow.0 -

yesterday was one of my 4000 cal binges in the evening. toast, cereal, steamed buns, brownies and shortbread. then ordered a chinese. ate till i couldn't move, and really wanted to purge (i have never purged ever) but the feeling was so uncomfortable. was frustrated that i gained 2 pounds from eating a lil more than the week before but still 1400-2000 a day which i should tecnically lose on.
another binge i feel is coming today. im thinking 'fresh start monday, new week'. this is probably wrong0 -

weekend over now back to business i hope. although i am tempted to binge more and more now that i've started0 -
Darn it, meant to check back at the begining of June to see if you were re-starting...now I am not sure of my tally. So I guess I will start out today and keep going. We had gone camping and that is BAD for my eating. But on the way home my hubby and I had a conversation that our camping trips have just turned into eating free-for-alls and that has got to stop. Next camping trip is scheduled for the 4th, so we will see how we prep for that one.

was off work today and at home and tried to use copy skills to fight off urges to binge but was unsuccessful. Tomorrow is another day! Still ahead so I am winning the battle so far this month.0 -

That is all we can do Mary when we have a bad weekend. Weekends are the toughest time for many of us with BED. I try to stay busy but this is not always possible. Keep up the good work checking in.0 -

I blew it yesterday and knew I was eating to stuff my feelings but did it anyway. I told myself in the moment that it wasn't so bad but it was and today I feel miserable about myself. I just planned my food for today and am going to do my best to stick with my plan. I have heard that we can't think our way into right acting, but we can act our way into right thinking. Today I am going to do the right actions and watch for some positive effects in my thinking.0 -
Good plan Mary. Good job on checking in too! I like your comment about our actions too. One day at a time and today is a new day!0
