    The binge has won each day since Monday. *sigh* Today's the day I'll win! I'll be checking in at end of day tomorrow or first thing on Sunday. To ensure a win, I've started my day with a protein smoothie & plenty of water.

    Me - 10****
    Be - 0

    Yesterday evening my mood took a dive and I feel even lower this morning. I haven't binged, but boy does it sure seem appealing right now. I just have to remember that I will only feel worse, not better if I give in. I'm planning a big, colorful salad for lunch and getting a good lift session in after work. Good food and a good sweat could be my ticket out of this low point.

    I'm just joining this challenge and new to MFP. Binging is definitely an issue for me and one of the main reasons why I have not been able to achieve my goals. Out of 4 completed food logs so far, I've binged 50% of the time, every other day. Since I haven't been tracking my intake or paying much attention, I wonder if this 50% is representative of how I usually eat. Either way, if I can make that number go down with this challenge I'll be a happy camper!

    I know I only posted on here two days ago - but last night I really fought an urge to binge. I had been hungry all day despite eating a reasonable amount of calories already. I had less than a third of daily cals left when I came home from work. I was tired and wanted to just give in and eat only junk food until I felt sick. I wrestled with that and told myself to eat what I had planned for dinner first and if I really still wanted to eat the other later, I would. I felt pretty satisfied after eating (and sitting letting that food settle while offering support to friends on MFP) and actually felt so inspired by other's posts about exercise and with the weather being nice here (yes, I have even used bad weather as an excuse to stay in and binge) I decided to go out for a walk to get some exercise in. I knew that curbed eating and would also allow me extra calories to snack later. It started raining while I was out and since I don't exercise much a short walk was all I could probably handle at that point. I did snack later, and ate a little more than a normal serving, but kept it pretty reasonable, and because of more controlled eating all week, I felt kind of overly full and yucky from it after it settled. Can't imagine how I would have felt if I had eaten all I originally wanted to eat. And would feel like Sh-- today! But instead I feel good today!

    Wow. Quite a weekend and I managed to not binge! I definitely felt the urge a few times but never gave in. Sometimes it seems harder, and other times it seems easier to say no. I'm just happy to be on a roll here :)

    During my weigh in this morning, I had a gain. Thought I was doing better but did have a couple of days over - I guess over enough to cause a gain! And had such a good day yesterday. That started me in a funk. So I didn't pack lunch or bring breakfast, so already eaten more than half day's calories which would be fine for most people, but i know I eat a night after dinner - and if I don't have enough calories saved, causes an overage. I really just feel like not even trying today - and bingeing on junk instead. Would kind of go with how my day is feeling to me...
