trust me, I've been there before. I know how you feel. It's like you're completely powerless over everything, and you feel like you'll never be able to stop. first of all, let me tell you that YOU CAN STOP. people have done it. i've done it. it's going to be incredibly hard, and in the beginning, it will be a daily, sometimes hourly, struggle. but trust me, just knowing that i had the ability to stop myself helped me so much. when i had this problem, i just really needed someone to tell me that it was possible, because it probably seems like it's not. my second tip would be to take it day by day. tell yourself that for one day, you will NOT binge. plan out your meals ahead of time if you have to. if you make it through the day, the next day, try for 2 days. just keep going. it might not be flawless all the time, but just look back at your progress to remind you of how far you've come. and finally, (and this is something that I still need to work on) is I would recommend, eventually, counseling. i've been able to pretty much stop my binge eating, but every once in a while, it still happens. the period i had where i was binge eating is constantly in the back of my mind, so that even when i'm not necessarily binging, i still feel like i am. and of course, we are all here for you! message me if you ever have any questions or need support. obviously i'm not perfect, and I'm still dealing with some of this stuff myself, but we can help each other!

Keep your chin up sunshine... take it a day at a time - tomorrow is a new day, aim for a binge-free day tomorrow... that's my plan I have been binge eating for years and my weight has fluctuated (I'm currently at my heaviest, wah)... but TOMORROW is a new day and it's going to be a binge free one...

Let me know how you go!
