Me too. I go through binge cycles a lot... in fact mine is so out of control that I go on like 3 day benders... so terrible!
I think it's because I mostly deprived myself of carbs. My body is always craving carbs! I just want muffins, cookies, chocolate, ice cream, cake.... bah!
I was watching tv the other day where this woman was talking about carb cravings. She said that we need a decent amount of carbs in our diet to avoid cravings. If you are consuming adequate carbs but the cravings are still there, then those carbs are obviously not appropriate for you and you need to switch it up... Like ditching the wholegrain bread for wholegrain rice.
Hope this helps. I'm on my third day of being binge free with incorporating more carbs in to my diet. I hope it lasts and I hope my reply helps!0
