support for Binge Eating Disorder

Day 6 no binging!!!!!!!!!!!! Yay!!!!!!!!!!!! Man did I every what to today but I fought and won!

Great job!!! So proud of you!

Trying to keep very busy cleaning going for walks! Eating more protein so I'm full longer. Making sure I do not miss a meal or snack I do them at the same time everyday. Drinking alot of water and crystal light. Chewing gum and sugar free mints. And when I get a really bad craving I have a small diet pop instead. It is getting alot easier as the days are going by!

Yup! I'm the same way no extras or I eat them! Learn and move on you can do it!

Day number 7 no binging! One Week! Now on to week 2! I'm so proud of myself!

We are proud of you too! One week is a wonderful start to a great pattern. I wish I could say the same for myself, but I kind of feel like I binged with the whip cream last night. There was a little bit left in the can and after a few squirts in my mouth, it felt like there wasn't very much left in the can so I kept squirting to see if I could just finish it up so I could throw away the empty container. That right there is a big mistake. I should have put it right back in the fridge and saved those last few squirts for another day because a few more and a few were left in the can and I ended up finishing off the rest of it. It sure didn't help that I had already had some no sugar added ice cream and a square of chocolate, but those 2 were at least more thought out than this stupid reddi whip thing. Live and learn.

9 days for TBfree! Yay!

Day number 9 no binging hope everyone else days are going good!

What is BED ?

Welcome Marci!

I wish you the best of luck with your weight loss and with the binge eating it takes me alot to stop my self sometimes. Keep yourself busy and before you eat stop and really think do I need that or is it something else that I want.

Good luck!

Hey everyone!
I'm so happy I came across this message board. I'm 27 years old and I've been a binge eater for as long as I can remember. I started when I was young. I would sneak and hide food in to my bedroom. My thing is sweets. I can polish off 3000 calories in 5 minutes I'm sure of it. I joined Weight Watchers 8 weeks ago and wow has it ever helped me control my eating. Now that I have to be accountable for what I eat I'm so much more aware and cautious. I have even found myself taking something out of the cupboard and putting it back because I know it's not worth it.
Unfortunately I also have days where I don't bother tracking because I ate everything in sight. I find if I give in to a craving, it throws me off track and I eat like crap the rest of the day (or longer). I always feel guilty and keep eating to mask that feeling...only to start a vicious cycle that makes me feel disgusting and sometimes physically ill. I'm bad for thinking..."Oh I ate crappy food today, might as well eat whatever I want today and start over tomorrow...or Monday...or the first of the month...". And it never works. I probably eat more than I normally would so I can get in all the food I will be depriving myself of. I think that's why I love WW so much now. I can still eat treats and I don't deprive myself but I really have to watch myself and watch my portions. I'm learning to say "no" or "no more".
Thank you so much to everyone here who have opened up and shared your experiences This is probably the first time I'm actually open about it. An Overeaters Anonymous group started in my area and I'm debating on attending a meeting.
You guys are amazing and I'm looking forward to learning more about you all
Hope everyone has a fantastic day!

Hey!

Great food day! No binging day 10!!!!!!!!!
