So I am underweight and was even more before, I eat about 800 calories everyday and basically restrict certain things such as sugar... but than i usually just binge really bad 1-2 times a week, usually on a weekend. Its been happening very often, basically every weekend. I just eat a lot of chocolate and sweets when i do binge and feel really bloated, gross, and angry at myself because i feel really sick when i overeat and dont know what to do than and my bloating doesnt go down for like 2 days :( Any advice for this bad habit and how to soothe the bloating? thank you! btw my cw is 52.1 kilos and im an 18 year old girl that is 169-170cm

    Try eating more if you can manage it, if your body is getting more calories you'll be less likely to binge. Also try eating more healthy sugars like fruits if sugar is what your craving. Good luck :)

    I am Binge Eating Disorder due to depression and anxiety. When I am depressed or have anxiety about day to day life problems I binge eat beyond feeling full. However, I feel that your are not a Binge Eater just someone who overeats because you are not taking in but 800 calories a day.

    Have you talked with your doctor about your eating disorder?

    I think you should be worrying about the low calorie intake of 800 calories a day...not binging on sweets. Your body needs more than 800 calories a day. Increase your calorie intake to AT LEAST 1200 is my suggestion to you.

    You should eat more, if you ate at least 1,200 calories a day, then you would feel fuller and you wouldn't have to binge eat.

    There have been so many questions from people with eating disorders!

    If you are vomiting up food, you must know that isn't normal. Bad for the stomach, esophagus, throat, mouth, teeth...and lungs if you suck any in.

    If you get so hungry that you have to binge, you must know that isn't normal, either.

    The obvious answer is to increase the amount of daily calories. You're going to binge them in later, anyway, so you might as well eat them day-to-day. But I suspect that logic will not pull you out of a place it never led you. ;)

    If this is an on-going thing, you must have known it wasn't normal for a while.

    Call your doctor and get a referral. Get some help. You can beat it if you want to!

    Personally I went to a psychiatric hospital to stop the cycle.

    So there's that. Talk to a medical professional at least.
