    No need to explain, I've lost Dad, Mom and my older sis to cancer...all within 12 year span. I stress-eat too. Don't think I've every "binged" but instead of being concious of what was going in my mouth, I would eat whatever was handy. I don't eat red meat ever, so nothing like burgers...but chips/pizza/mexican food......instead of being concerned about portions I'd just eat because i was hungry and sad. But over the course of years and then I'd lose and then I'd stress and gain...and then I'd lose. A vicious cycle.

    What is scarier is thinking about what i ate before i dieted, would certainly be considered binging to me now but then...just a day in the life.


    Anyway- downfalls: cheeseburgers, fries, pizza, nachos. SALT SALT SALT basically.


    This is also one thing I have come to terms with since starting MFP. I used to be a binge eater. And I didn't even realize it. I just thought, oh, I will eat just a few cookies, just a few chips, just a few breadsticks, then I won't eat much dinner. When in fact I would eat like 5 or 6 cookies, half a bag of chips, 3 breadsticks, AND dinner plus seconds. I can't even believe I used to do that to myself. I am just very glad that I have realized this, and will try my best to never eat this way again.

    Ugh...when I think about how I used to eat it makes me feel ill lol ......entire bags of chips along with the whole container of dip....extra large chocolate bars...I made a box of Suddenly Salad once, added extra bacon, avocado, more mayo and ranch dressing...it was so rich and sickening...and I ate it all. A bag of super cheesy instant potatoes (all of it) along with 2 or 3 Cheddarwurst sausages....major sodium overload!

    Basically during a full day of MMOing. Box of Cheezits to one side, package of double stuff oreos to the other, case mountain dew on hand, nothing left when I finally crashed. Things like this are why I ended up with HPB, high triglycerides and needing to seek out a lifestyle change.

    Ohhh I've done really bad like eating an entire pizza bad. But during my worst though, I think I ate taco bell nacho grande with a taco and then got 4 krystal's and chili cheese fries! For shame, I can't even believe I used to be able to eat like that. No more Thank Goodness!

    :sick: 3/4 of a german chocolate cake.

    wha?

    you know how you just grab a fork and start eating and then youre like "well thats not left even" so you keep forking and it never looks like an even cut so you just keep forking until you realize how much youve eaten

    i am the QUEEN of this!!!! lol!

    This thread is making me really hungry, is that bad? /:

    I actually just had a pretty crappy weekend, eating about 800 calories worth of Danish Butter cookies, Chips Ahoy cookies, and Swiss chocolates both days. But thats far from my worst. I've eaten entire boxes of Golden Oreos with milk in one sitting. Four poptarts at once. Its usually dessert-type things that set me off... & its taking a lot of willpower right now to not go buy any cookies after my next class o___o

    Just now, not really my worst binge, but I just did it... I just ate the whole box of special k bars :( And with every bar I kept telling myself, "DONT DO IT! NO MORE!!" But I couldn't stop!! Ugh how terrible. Why is food such a terrible addiction??

    OOh I've been there. My worst binge in college was probably going through the Arby's drive through and getting 3 or 4 things of cheesy potato tots and then eating an entire bag of fun size Take 5's. Within this calendar year, my worst binge has probably been an entire bag of Oreos or an entire pint of ice cream inside 24 hours.

    Worst ever was on purpose when I was doing Tim Ferriss' Slow Carb diet, which requires a cheat day and gives you some tools to insure that as many of those calories pass into muscle or just leave your body undigested as possible.

    Started off with half a dozen donuts, then had a poker game with friends where I at 4-5 huge slices of pizza and drank a six pack of beer. I estimate I ate nearly 5000 calories that day. I almost puked that night when I tried to lay down to go to sleep.

    I used to go across to the store from work and buy 12 bags of crisps, go home....and eat the lot in one night, usually one bag after the other. I did that many times, so I can't remember one big binge, I just ate to make myself feel better, once I ate them I felt fat and guilty and this cycle went on and on for years.

    Thankfully those days are long gone :drinker:

    I have a sweet tooth when it comes to binges...usually its entire 1/2 gallons of ice cream.. in 1 or 2 sittings. The worst part is I've done it so many times it rarely makes me feel sick or even full! My most recent involved an entire box of debbie cakes. I'm still hopeful, I'm a healthy eater & full of nutrition knowledge..it's just breaking a cycle & learning to deal with all my emotions. Happy & sad, alike.

    Keep your heads up everyone!

    Most recent binge was a hungover trip to Mcds, I had a big tasty, mozzarella dippers, large fries and a CBO..
    Ate it in one sitting and then woke up and continued to eat like a monster for the rest of the day.
    DAMN YOU HANGOVERS AND YOUR JUNK FOOD CRAVINGS..

    Pre diet I would literally finish up at the gym, head over to the supermarket and spend at least £20 on chocolate, crisps, cakes and sit in my bedroom and eat it..To be honest I probably could still do that now but the self disgust after puts me off!

    For as long as I can remember, I've kept binges at bay. Not typically a problem.

    Today I'm BORED at work...bored eating is a no-no, but I did it anyway...

    Dunkin Donuts Pumpkin Muffin: 550 calories
    Mini bag of Fritos: 160 calories
    Fiber Oat and PB Bar - 140 Calories

    All that was between 9 and 11am...

    Off the top of my head - a whole box of Reduced Fat Cheez-Its (can't stomach the whole fat ones).
    I've done that MANY times.

    Food- A box and a half of jalapeno poppers, followed an hour later by 40 pizza rolls.

    Alcohol- we started at about 9am on a friday on stand-down (vacation), stopped and went to bed Sunday around 7pm. Hawaii the liquor laws are odd, so when last call is 03:30AM, you can still go to restaurants and get served, the bars open back up around 8am... this is why I don't drink jaeger and red bull very much anymore.
