Binge Eating Blues

:explode: There are times I feel this way. I really have a problem when I get depressed. In the town I live in a man went into a local pharmacy/gift shop and everyone got out except the owner. Three cops were injured, the store owner was shot in the arm and back while escaping. After 14 hours the swat team went in and there was a lot of gun fire and the man was killed. Before he went there he killed his father and he admitted during the negotiations that he had killed another guy and hid the body. We were in lock down for awhile and then they let us leave. Most of the downtown was closed up for two days while they were investigating. The pharmacist is a very good friend and it hit hard. Just couldn't believe that someone in this small town would do something like that. I have had a little bit of binging problems as a result because I suffer from a PTSD event in my life and I shut down.
Anyway trying to get back on the right track now. Cannot afford to gain the weight back. Last night went and participated in a Rumba course at the YMCA. Boy do you move muscles you didn't even know that you had. It was pretty fast paced so there were times I wasn't doing what they were. I have been making small snack bags with snacks 15 carbs or less and have given them to my mom and she gives me two at night that way I won't over eat because evening eating is the worst for me. Any other suggestions would be helpful so let me know what types of things you have tried.:grumble:

Wow, I'm sorry to hear about such a tragic event!
I really don't have any advice for you, as I still struggle with bingeing pretty frequently, but wanted to respond and let you know you're not alone and I'm glad you shared with us!0
