I think I am a binge eater? I don't eat then throw up or eat and exercise uncontrollably. But I binge on anything sugar.. I can go days without binge eating then bam it hits and i am out of control. Tonight instead of 2 cookies i had to have 10 and then 4 more. I don't have a stop button and then I feel so guilty afterwards.

    You're not alone. I know exactly what you mean :/ We can get better though! It just takes time, patience, and support :)

    sounds a bit like me too.... when it comes to sweets, I can't just have one. I try not to buy boxes of cookies or anything in bulk cause when there are that many sweets in the house,... just sitting there in the cupboards.... I can't stop thinking about them and eventually just give in!! I try and find items that are sold individually. It's more expensive but helps with the control (or lack thereof) issues.....

    Of course! I used to think I was crazy and that few people went through the same, but there are so many other people who have the exact same issues and work to overcome them! :)

    No, you're definitely not alone although it really feels like it sometimes. I am finding the support group really helpful. It helps to know that there are others out there who do understand!
