    me: 8
    binge: 1

    binges
    Aug 1 mainly Oreos and home made bread. related to stress from crazy kids/lack of sleep due to kids and screwing up a job application deadline.

    I'm feeling like I could just eat but I keep telling myself it is boredom because the kids are eating so slow. I just need out of the kitchen!

    Yay -, my belt and I agreed on the 6th hole today! I was at 6 holes last January when I got down to the lowest I've been at 234 and although I'm not down to that weight yet again, I'm pleased about the belt. All this strength training is making a difference on my body shape!

    Yay! That's awesome!!

    Goal: to binge no more than 8 days.

    Me: 6
    Binge: 3 (8/2; 8/3; 8/4)

    I'm a little over today but not sweating it too much since I'm under for the week. I like seeing all of the green bars on the phone app graph. :wink:

    I'm a little worried about the upcoming weekend. I have the "It's Friday, time to eat!" mindset that I need to break.

    Had a strong urge to binge yesterday at 8pm. I warmed up three mini vegetable egg rolls in the microwave. Ate HALF OF ONE and threw the rest. I know, I know, I shouldn't be throwing food away but that was the only way I was able to overcome the feeling and it has been really strong lately. I can't figure out why I'm having that strong urge almost every day. Maybe it's because I binged last Saturday and it takes a while for the feeling to decrease. I don't know, but yesturday was success for me!!

    Well, here comes the weekend. :/ Love the weekends but hate that my chances of binging increases and to top it off, my friend is having a gathering for his bday at his house Sat night which will include food and alcohol. Good luck to you all! Here we go...........

    As of 8/10
    Me: 8
    Binge: 1(8/4)

    Boo :( DOn't even know what the deal was today, just trying to reboot and not keep eating the remainder of the day. What a vicious cycle but I feel so much better b/c I am not alone. This group is helping me so much!

    The binge keeps winning. I am realllllly struggling right now emotionally and know I'm just numbing it and punishing myself, but it just makes me feel worse. Tomorrow I will break the cycle.

    Me: 5
    Binge: 5
