I think that's a great idea. Own up to it and make it public. No more hiding it. I know I'll be posting here but it better not be very often!

Hi I think this is a great group to join and hope it works to stop the binge eating that I do !!! Mostly mine is in a evening after I have had a good day and then spoil it by eating chocolate and biscuits ! I use to binge on fresh bread but don't eat bread at home now and save it for a treat when eating out ! Hopefully knowing I am in this group and will be logging in daily it will give me more control and instead of binging I can log on and by pass the binge :bigsmile:

Does anybody else find it hard to eat healthy when it gets cold??? I always seem to do really good in the summer but once the cold hits and fruits and veggies go out of season.....I lose my self control....

I'm hoping yesterday was my last binge until December. (when I travel home to visit the family, it's my foodie sister's first time hosting so I know I'll go overboard)

After a killer work out I made the mistake of bringing up Domino's pizza, and that we have coupons for two-for-one pizzas. We were looking at said coupons, discussing hypothetically what we'd get, not that we'd actually order in.

But if we were to hypothetically get a pizza, we'd need a film. Cue half an hour of browsing Netflix.

Long story short, I ate 3 chicken kickers, 5 medium high-kcal slices and we watched Waterworld. It was a wonderful evening, I regret nothing, but it was unplanned and pushed me way above my kcal intake for the day. I am much too good at resorting to comfort foods when I'm stressed, and that needs to stop, ideally now.

Thank you for reading and good luck to us all

In your defence, Waterworld is an absolutely amazing film, and Domino's chicken kickers are spectacular:bigsmile: . I also have loads of those vouchers; thankfully I'm a student with a lot of stoner friends so I've managed to hold the temptation off for now!

I haven't binged in a while, I guess the last time was before I even started this journey a couple of weeks back, when I ordered Domino's with my friends to celebrate a buddy's achievement, and even then I stopped after a few slices because it made me feel kinda sick.

I had a little slip up last night, Sundays are usually a write off for me, but I put in a bit more effort and I had a reasonably good day. I took my youngest two kids to a friends kids birthday party in the afternoon so ate a few party pies, but didn't over do it, avoided the chips an alcohol and instead of getting our usual take out night dinner of KFC went and got Subway for everyone and I had the salad. Everyone went to bed and I stayed up watching a movie and even though I wasn't hungry my mind went straight to the little pannacotta desserts we were given earlier this week, and before I could even try to talk myself out of it I had two on my plate and already eating them.

I am diabetic and medicated, and I am not a sweet tooth at all, I prefer my savoury carb heavy stuff, but it seems that when I crave foods late at night they are usually sugary type foods. All of which means I need to make a double effort to avoid binging on the sugar!

As for the Why? Now that I can look back at it I think I was feeling a little bored and a little lonely. I'm ultimately aiming for the whole month of November to be binge free, so I have the next 10 days to start making some changes and trying to find ways to actually stop this before it starts.

I had pizza saturday, a whole medium one to myself. :blushing:

I also today then, must have ate at least 3 (190kcal) chocolate bars and 3 slices of toast, all over my original calorie intake. I am/was tired, anxious and feeling a bit emotional when I ate them.

Here's to tomorrow. :drinker: A good day.

I LOVE the little rhino dreaming of being a unicorn in your profile cartoon!

This is painful...:blushing: yesterday I ate the frosting off two mini muffins and a piece of cake from the Blubber Fridge in my office. I ate one whole muffin and threw away the second one and the piece of cake after I ate the frosting. That's actually an improvement over some days I've had. I don't know why I did that, except maybe I wanted a treat, something special above and beyond the apples I bring for snacks. I have to mentally connect the junk in the office to ruining my body.

I lose the challenge.. binged so ferociously and for long that can 't even remember what i ate or how much No way, am not going to try to log it. i feel dreadful
Still technically October though right? I am in?

Wow, now I feel really bad. What you guys call "binging" I would barely even call overeating.
Confession: on Sunday I was sad so I ate an entire package of oreos and a pint of cookie-dough ice cream
I went over my calorie limit yesterday and today
Still lost three pounds though?
I think maybe my scale's broken

Believe me, my out of control binges are a hell of a lot worse than what I mentioned earlier, my slip up this time was a small one, with the potential to be huge but I forcibly had to stop myself, it was only for the fact that I had it in the forefront of my mind that I want to stop these repetitive binge sessions and I was lucky enough my willpower was high enough at the time! I'm dreading when the big urge hits while I'm feeling low

UGH slipped up yesterday and today. Had 2 small popcorns at the movies last night, extra butter (at the time it just tasted so good, and I rarely go to the movies. I needed to eat more beforehand but i just didn't.)! then today after weighing myself and discovering i did very well, i had a bit of a celebration with some pizza with everything. Unfortunately i was alone and now picking at the pizza turned into eating the entire thing. I was proud of my weight loss, but also felt quite lonely. I don't have a weight loss buddy off of MFP, so i think the celebratory aspect was overshadowed by the loneliness. Listing my trigger foods and starting with popcorn and Pizza. UGH.

Moving on.

Serenity, sending you a hug! You CAN do this! If you feel blue and want to eat to comfort yourself, try something else.... get up, put on some positive music, or go to youtube and find an exercise video you can follow.
