Break the Habit

Hi All,

Well, I have been struggling with Binge Eating for years! But yesterday, I was finally told by my mother (who used to have the same problem) that to break the habit of stuffing myself when I am bored, it took about 28 days. So here I go! First day of no Binge Eating! Of course, I still have to find a way to work out the emotional eating, but one step at a time.

Anyone want to do this with me?

What I did is that I have a little calendar in my kitchen and I put a star after every day I succeed. For days like the weekend (usually when I binge), I have it by hour so that I can cross off the hour.

Good luck!

    I put a smiley on my calendar for every day I eat well.

    This support group is all about committing to being binge free a month at a time, so you can pretty much figure that everyone here is doing what you are doing. You can start the month whenever you want!
