    Logged everything so far this month.

    Feeling so much better, which is great but can also be detrimental to me because I start feeling good again and think I can eat. NOT.

    100% agree with you there! I start feeling great and then I say "One [insert trigger portion here] can't hurt, plus I know I can moderate it!"

    Haha...nope. :noway: Thanks for sharing that; I'm glad I'm not the only one who feels that way.

    First binge-free weekend in a long time! It really helps this time that my husband is trying to lose some weight as well so we don't have lots of trigger foods around anymore. Have a great week everyone!

    Me too!!!! Weekends were always a free for all for me but I got through it easier than I expected. Phew!

    less than 8 binging days is my goal!

    Horribley sick and not wanting to eat. I don't know how people eat so little. With any luck when I feel better I can eat normal and not binge.

    Yes. On an upswing, keeping it us. My calories have been really low, need to make sure I hit 1,200.

    My goal is to have less than 2 more binge days this week. It's going to be tough.

    Not a great start, but I already packed my lunch for tomorrow! So I have no excuse to get fast food for my lunch break.

    I am determined to not binge today!!! For some reason after I lose a bit of weight I use it as an excuse to binge. Well, that has gotten me no where but up, up, up on the scale!!!

    Yup! Like I said yesterday, I start to feel better and BAM! I find myself eating junk again and then BAM! It's a binge. :grumble:

    Days did not log - 1. I realized yesterday I said I logged everything this month but that wasn't true, one day last week I did not.

    UGGGGGHHHHH caved into cravings yesterday and before you know it I ate a bunch of crap in the afternoon and was not hungry for dinner so I didn't achieve that goal yesterday. Slept like crap and woke up bloated.

    Just as I was starting to feel good again. It wasn't the worst of binges, thankfully, but I still felt like crap afterward, of course.

    I'm not even hungry today but will not restrict if I get hungry.

    Days finished logging- 6

    Yesterday was the best day I've had in a while. I just kept myself busy and was able to have common sense. I just asked myself "What part of 'YOU CAN BARELY FIT INTO YOUR CLOTHES' do you not understand???!" :laugh: I decided that the joy of having a binge-free day was way better than the temporary joy and then the emotional pain and physical discomfort caused by overeating.
