Bingers..

WalkingGirl1985

Still continue to look for friends who wish to defeat the monster inside us once for all, so we can finally be successful at our weight loss journey, and be happy, healthy people. I feel much more happier when I'm in control. I been struggling with this, ooh, I'd say maybe 12-18 month range, and binge for almost all reasons. I even binged when I was happy for achieving my GED so I used that as an excuse to take the night off to celebrate..so please add me..lets encourage each other, support each other with the good and the bad, and be successful.

I'm a binger. You sound a lot like me. So many things set off a binge. And then I'm miserable. But the opposite is true when I eat healthy foods, I feel amazing! I'll friend you. Being accountable helps me. Anyone who wants the same can friend me too

I'll offer my support to you all, feel free to add me as a friend, so we can support each other.

I'm a "recovering" binger. I say recovering, because I don't believe that it ever goes away, you just learn how to deal with it a little differently.

Feel free to add me if you like, I can totally empathize! :-)

Same here! I binge when happy, sad, mad, bored, busy, anxious - you name it. I have really been trying to feed my emotions with something besides food.

I'm a massive binger. I have really struggle with self control

I went to couseling for binge eating for over 2 yrs. It is something that will never go away. I have found my triggers are when I am very tired or when things are going completely out of control in my life. You have to look at it the way an alcoholic looks at alcohol.....one day at a time, forgive yourself when it happens, find support and do your best at making the binges further and further apart. Don't get too hungry, log your food. These are all things that help me. I have to snack all day and made sure I have a snack in the evening.....it is tough, but the negative self talk and the "voices" inside your head are the main culpurate. You have to get those under control before you can get the eating under control.....you have to be nice to yourself! Forgive yourself! Once you can treat yourself like you treat your best friend is when you will start controlling your binges.....

I really need to see this post. I binged during the 4th of July holiday telling myself that I would get back on track the next day. However today, I binged again after a tough day at work. Please keep the advice coming

I experience binging as well. I've pretty much managed to cut it out at work and stick to my meals and scheduled or planned snacks, but when I'm off work I get bored. The last week I've been at home recovering from two eye surgeries and have went over my calorie allowance twice this week. Maybe it would help to have some encouragement! I only have one friend on here so feel free to add me. I'm not your typical dieter. I don't listen to any hype, but I may ask advice from time to time.

jenna25

jimmeezwyf

I have an awful habit of binge eating on the weekends. I do forgive myself and move on. It's becoming less often and I am proud of myself for gaining more control of it as time has gone on. Never give up.

starringmelissa

im a binger as well! def adding you

zela

does it not make you feel bad knowing you are one weak human being who is not even able to control what you put into your mouth?

that alone would motivate me, just sayin

HealthierAndFitterMe

yeah , i'm a binger too . been struggling with it for a year , but it has gotten really bad the past 6 months . need motivation & support . feel free anyone to add me . (:

I am a binger. It's difficult to address as I am not viewed as overweight. Generally, I binge 2 days per week and sometimes more and then go to the other extreme on other days. I hope forcing myself to enter everything I eat (even on the "bad" days) will help me overcome this horrible habit I have developed. I'm disappointed in myself but strangely that feeling can even drive me to binge. It's a cycle that is not easily broken

I'm a closet binger. If no one can see me, or find evidence, it didn't happen. The only one who knows is the scale. and my larger *kitten*. and my too tight pants.

It sucks, but I can at least now "feel" it coming on and take steps to prevent it from happening.

Yups... I am the queen of binge eating. Please feel free to add me ..... that goes for anyone that needs the support. The more the merrier!

sarah307

you can add me!! I have struggled with this for several years... hopefully able to say i'm in "recovery" soon and binge free!!!

Definitely had some bingeing moments myself.

Getting support from others is great, talking and writing down my feelings and thoughts have made an incredible difference.

Fellow bingers, or even occasional binge eaters, even over-eaters: I strongly suggest checking out one or two OA (Overeaters Anonymous) meetings, just to get an outside perspective and hear other human beings struggle with this disease. I'm not a member, but I have been to meetings and found clarity to myself on WHY I binge rather than fix myself post binge or hate myself post binge.

Bingeing is an ADDICTION like drugs, like alchoholism. There are real emotions and thoughts that are more terrorizing than the actual binge. Bingeing is a symptom of what's really going on inside ourselves.

Binge-eating and over eating is NOT about control. We can't control CALORIES, CRAVINGS, BINGEING, or how our bodies respond to food. Binge eating comes down to choice, and I don't mean in regards to food either.


Feel free to add me for support and accountability :-)

I would really like to join this group, I am new to this webiste but I too binge. Last night I binged on chocolate swiss roll, cream caramel bun and cadbury's roast almond chocolate. I tend to notice I binge when: I am tired or stressed and just before I hit goal weight about 1 -2 kgs away from the goal... so it's interesting to read these posts. I am very happy to have found a place to share and talk honestly about it as I thought I was just being"greedy!"

cammy257

What choices did you find were important to make Sukaera? I really enjoyed reading your post - thank you for sharing. :flowerforyou:
