    I would say the binging is probably why you put on weight...

    If your diary was accessible I could give you more detailed advice.

    Start the day over-exercising and aim for a calorie deficit every day.

    Don't lose heart-we all mess up.

    I don't know how to make it visible, and to be honest i haven't been using it properlly i've just been adding up calories as and when i want to know
    but i know i should start that
    i'm really upset i don't know what to do? i've stopped binging now although it's really hard and i can't seem to loose weight and i dunno what to do!!!

    I have had a similar situation, I lost a lot of weight and then went through a break up and eventually got with someone new and got the "happy eating" bug and put a lot of weight on... Unlucky for me I find it difficult to lose weight sensibley.

    I also havent really got an idea of how to use this site properly so I have also just been adding calories but thats it... Needing help just like you.. :)

    I’m exactly the same to you!!! I stopped eating and lost weight when I was unhappy, then I met someone knew, and I moved on and became happy again so I let myself go.. ate whatever I wanted and stopped caring, to many nights in with junk food! And I just ate whatever butt now I’ve just noticed how much weight I’ve gained and I reeeeally don’t like it I need to gain some control over my eating again and I just can’t seem to be able to!!
    Hopefully we can both help eachother if your in the exact same situation!!!
