  • Why do people binge?:bigsmile:

    I'm not quite sure if this question is meant as a joke (which the smiley face leads me to believe), or if it is serious. No matter the case, binging is a serious problem that we all are trying to overcome. There are many different reasons/factors that cause people to binge, so if you are truly interested, do some research. If not, please don't leave any more snide comments on this forum.

    ** Sorry, I truly don't mean to be rude, but I've had a horrible day (yes, I binged), and came on here looking for positive, uplifting comments. And this one really made me mad for some reason.

    I understand how you feel.

    Ignore this troll, what he's looking for is a reaction. -.-

    Parents are visiting from out of state until Wednesday, which in itself is rather a triggering event. The next few days are going to be interesting.

    Happy Friday Everyone!!

    Well I really fought urges to binge yesterday. Stressing with issues at work. Probably self induced but still stressful for me. I over ate yesterday but did not binge. When I purchased a food item I did not need and had just ate lunch I started self talk to not let this stress start a potential binge.

    Jeez, what is my problem?! Why am I having such a hard time getting back on track? My vacation ended Tuesday, I did well on Wednesday, and binged last night. It's like I'm unconsciously rebelling against getting back into my routine. All the hard work and results I gained over the past 2 months have been ruined by these terrible binges, and I'm PISSED because I worked hard. Hopefully this is my impetus to get back on track for good!

    Always ready for the months to end, once they get close to the last days.

    Zzz.... I won't binge today.

    I can realte when you spoke of your hard work ruined by binges. I feel that way too. I am trying to figure out why I keep doing this.

    I also remind myself that my strength and cardio I have done has not been ruined by the binge. I may have gained but I kept evercising so maybe once the binge us under control I can see a toned body.

    It's just so frustrating, you know? I need to stop focusing on how the binges keep interrupting my hard work because I think it just makes me want to binge more. My problem is thinking how I could've, should've, would've looked by now if it wasn't for those darn binges. Before my vacation, I was actually making really good progress. Now, I'm back to working on getting back to where is was. I've got those last few lbs to goal weight, which are the toughest and any little (or big) binge just really get in the way of that. I will not give up!

    Not fantastic eating today, but nothing close to a binge. Today with the parents was fine, though I'm very aware of their advancing age, my dad especially. Trying very hard to stay aware of my feelings, so that there's no need to numb myself with anything.

    Another good day. I know 6 binges is not bad but not good either. At least this gives me a goal to get those down each month

    Sounds like me! I won't give up either. The first pounds were easy compared to the last 46 I am trying to lose!! I have a hard time not focusing on weight I have gained also. We have to focus on the positives. Health, strength etc.

    I gained in Dec and now I am still not back where I was. I try not to focus on that but it is hard. I would be under 200 pounds if I had never gained. It sucks but I bet it happens to a lot of people.

    We can do this!
