    I hate myself so much right now. I know that's not healthy, but that's where I'm at.

    I spent the entire morning cleaning my house, and when I finally found time to eat I was ravenous. The problem is, even once I became full, I couldn't stop. I was supposed to run 15K today, a goal that was personally important to me, but I ate too much, and now I am in so much pain and I can't run. I tried, and I only completed 1.8K before all that food sloshing around in there became too much.

    This is my fourth binge this week, which is a personal low for me, at least within the last several months.

    How am I ever going to meet my goals if I keep letting food rule my life? How can I be so strong in certain ways and so weak in others? I feel so broken right now. What's wrong with me?

    hang in there. i know how you feel. i am tough as nails for a lot of things and food turns me into a puddle of mush. just keep at it. it's something that won't just go away on it's own. i find fellowship with other people who have BED helps a lot!

    28th April.

    Kate - 22.
    Binge - 6.

    Had an appalling binge last night and purged. My day totalled about 8000 calories. I had a big choir performance and I think the mix of relief, stress and my time of month being due, pushed me over the edge finally. I managed to get back on track today by the skin of my teeth. I woke up ready to carry on where I left off, but gritted my teeth, restocked the healthy foods I was running low on and hit the gym. It is very hard to move forward when you consumed so much junk, and feel you have undone any good work, but you have little choice in the end.

    I really hope you feel better tomorrow. I have had many times I binged to such a point I could not even face leaving my flat, let alone entering the gym or doing any exercise. It can all seem so pointless when you have consumed so much and lost all control. Schedule the 15k for another day, you can still do it. Sure, you didn't do it when you had planned, but life seldom goes to plan anyway. I think everyone has their own strengths and weaknesses, and you need to focus on what makes you strong, and use your strengths to help with the weaknesses. I had a serious binge myself last night, to the sum of about 8k calories. The last thing I wanted to do when I woke today, was go to the gym and face the world.

    I did it again.

    I feel like I could just keep going.

    Why is this happening?! I'm not under eating calories... The last several weeks I've GAINED. I'm eating enough, so why is my body/ brain doing this?

    I just want to be normal. Why can't I just be normal?

    How is it so easy for other people?

    Over-ate this weekend, which has lead to a binge before (my mentality would be to continue eating since I'd be over my cals anyways). However, I'm proud to say that when I felt the urge, I forced myself to go to the gym. I believe that helped keep the binge at bay since I worked too hard at the gym to mess it up w/a few thousand cals. I'm so glad I found something that helped!

    Binge total for April : 10

    I have one more day after this one to survive, and I'm 90% sure I can get through without binges (ending the month well!) Because this weekend I binged twice and felt sick.
