New to community, trying to conquer binge eating

So, I am a 22-year-old college grad & I've been athletic my entire life. I ran daily in high school and was never overweight. The last few years I have been struggling with a binge/emotional eating disorder. I will eat tons of junk after work if I'm bored, sad or stressed and then starve the next day to "compensate" for it. Although I am still trying to eat somewhat healthy when I'm not binging, the junk has caused me to gain 25 pounds, mostly on the hip & thigh & butt areas. I'm just looking for support & accountability to beat this bad habit & develop a healthier relationship with food while getting back into shape. :)
