    The Binge: 1 (11/4)
    Overate (100 cals or more): 4 (11/1: 579; 11/2: 295; 11/3: 688; 11/5: 758 )


    I've been horribly lazy lately. The overeating is out-of-hand, but at least I'm not binging.

    So organized! I like it.

    And atleast it's just overeating, and not binging! Youre probably eating enough calories to maintain your weight. Like I said, better than binging.

    A win for me! Ate PB with no binge. Keeping it up. I haven't weighed myself in some time and I'm quite nervous. I'll plan for Saturday to weigh in.

    The Binge did his best to bust me last night but I held him off! I went over my calories yesterday -- didn't exercise as much as I generally do -- and the Binge-monster tried to convince me to go over just a little more. Well, I wouldn't have stopped with just a little food; it would have turned into a full-blown binge. Binge-monster, you lose!

    Not a horrible binge as in past, but a binge or what I call as sugar binge. It is interesting i used to numb out and/or feel a mind tinge of happiness when I binged. I noticed tears today. I'm not sure it is because I have the flu or something else deep is surfacing.
    Tomorrow is another day. I find checking in on this site helpful...it keeps me real!

    At the very end of the day, I was relieved of some stress, and dang it, if I didn't binge a bit. :cry:

    Made it another day yesterday with no binges!

    Me - 4
    Binge - 2 (11/2, 11/5)

    I am fearful of today though, I just feel like eating and sort of having urges and cravings. I have this thing that I signed up for through work at noon, a webinar titled "Information about How Stress Affects Our Eating Behavior". Should be interesting. Hopefully that will help.

    I ate a whole container of 9% fat greek yogurt. I eat yogurt like I used to eat ice cream. I can't resist dairy products. I think I should only buy single size servings. At least I broke even calorie wise, but that isn't going to help me lose weight.

    Single sizes works for me on most items, but not all :)

    If you have a smart phone or iphone there is a good app out that you all may find help:

    It is called RR Recovery. Check it out and use for a while and let me know how you all like it :) I have been using it off and on for about 6 months now.

    Binge - 2 (11/1, 11/4)

    Had a healthy amount of calories today, almost 1,700. But no binge! Though I did eat when I wasn't hungry & I'm full now, I was in control. It feels good to see me 'me' number go up. This is really helping me. I'm so appreciative!

    Binge-2

    My calories are a bit low today and I got a lot of exercise. I am doing WW online this month, but also logging on MFP. Out of desperation I joined b/c I lost some weight on it before and I feel I need some guidelines. I am finding it very interesting the point system b/c I don't think I am eating enough==I am 5'10" and today I went over just by 1 point and was at 1300 something calories. I am trying to save my extra points for anniversary dinner this weekend and each day am using a few. Needless to say I don't think I will be renewing my subscription for next month! Don't want this to set me up for a binge, but I have gained 10 pounds in a few weeks and need to get in control. I want to get back to looking like I did in my profile pic, that is my inspiration...one day ;-)!!

    Last night I didn't binge so much as overeat, but I'm counting it as a binge. I'm still in the lead though! Today is another day..

    I'm a happy camper, and after cutting back on sugar my binge cravings have been lowered a lot. Which helps!
