    I'm new to this group, but not to MFP. I've been on and off the site several times and lost and gained the same weight several times. Well, it's time to start again, and I've been tracking since Feb 1 and doing well. I hope that joining a couple of groups for support will help me to stick with it longer than usual, and get to my goal.

    Yesterday evening was a little hard because I went to the grocery store and kept passing all of the binge foods I would usually buy. I managed to not buy any of them, but there was a lot of anxiety about it. It's easier for me to not binge if I don't keep binge foods in the house. I can't keep them around and eat single servings; it's just too much temptation to keep eating.

    So here's my update as of yesterday (and today so far too):

    Marty--7
    The Binge--0

    Welcome Marty!! Good job on not giving up. I truly believe, success is never giving up! Keep up the good work!! Remember consistency is key, not perfection. If we were perfect we would not be here.

    Feeling sad, lonely, not sure exactly what I'm feeling. I was really hungry at supper time, and wanted a particular item for supper but didn't have enough calories left to allow it, so I had something else that was within calorie limits. I should be happy about making the better choice, but I'm feeling more deprived. This is a setup for bingeing, and I don't want to do that.

    New to the group, but not MFP I just deleted my old account a while ago. The last three days have been binge days but seeing I am still positive for the month thus far helps me feel better.

    Haven't binged, but did go ridiculously over calories Saturday night while out to dinner celebrating a 25th anniversary. Hard to not go over, when you need to eat during the day but eat a ton less and you are so hungry when the food comes out at the restaurant you enjoy all of it! Oh well, logged it, moved on, and off to a good week!

    The Binge: 3

    I binged today. I went a day binge free and then binged again the next day. My mood hasn't been great - my pants feel tighter and I'm sure the scales gone up 5 lbs. It takes awhile to get myself back to normal eating once one binge hits.

    It also takes time to get the scale back down again which is so depressing.

    What have I become? I often catch myself wondering. It's only late morning and my calorie count is above 3,000. I have no chance to make this day better - but I can spend the rest of the day fighting the urge to binge more?

    There's this guy I like, and I want to be honest with him at all times, but this is a very sensitive struggle, and I feel like if I tell anyone around me they will 1) not understand and 2) think of how much of a pig I am. I'm sorry if I'm offending anyone, I just feel so horrible about my secret habit right now, and my mind isn't in a very good place.

    Here's hope for tomorrow :flowerforyou:
