mindless eating or binge?

Do any of you find that you will mindlessly eat and then it turns into a binge before you know it. I find myself waking up this morning and making the kids breakfast and start to shovel cereal in my mouth. If I would just stop there it would be one thing but then I get this nagging voice in my mind saying "screw it, you suck, who cares now" Then I am fine and lunch the same thing happens again, but this time it gets even worse and I can't undo the damage I have done. Finishing the kids lunch and eating what they had gold fish (snack) lunch-cheese quesadillas, chips and berries and ice cream. Not that bad, but when all said and done I ate way too many calories and wasn't even thinking as I am eating. I just can't seem to get it together and I feel like a fat blob---even though I know feeling "fat" isn't a real feeling. I just keep thinking if I would have stopped with the cereal it would have not been as bad. I haven't been tracking my food this week and was great for 2 days but I don't think I am ready for that now, so tomorrow am back to tracking again. Thanks for letting me vent! I need to move on and be proud of the 3 great days in a row and forgive myself for today.

I suffer more from impulse eating turning into a binge. An impulse decision leads to another impulse decision which leads to another, and pretty soon the wreckage of a fast-food fueled binge litters my car.

I used to be a FF Junkie. That is how I medicated myself but no more. Now when I do binge at least it is not on fast foods.
