    Today was not good at all...but it started that TOM this afternoon so I am not too upset. However, I am back to day 1 tomorrow! I am going to try to get through until Halloween (at least without too many start overs) cause I am going home them and want to look and feel my best and i can't do that unless I get my binging under control!

    I hadn't binge since the beginning of the challenge (so it's like more than a month) but today I did so bad I didn't even get out of my home just binged several time and watched tv I feel like such a looser.
    I'll go hit the gym tomorrow and work on my book and my thesis!

    End of day 8!! This is the longest I have made it woohoo!! Good luck to everyone! After the first week is over, I swear it is like thousands of times easier to not binge. I also cut out junk food last week so now I don't really crave it at all. I figure that if I want something I will have it but the week helped me detox :).

    Great to see new people! Hope everyone has a great week. :flowerforyou:

    Day 3 is done! woohoo- i have started eating a much larger breakfast and found that it really does help me not eat as much during the day. my only concern is that I don't have a snack or eat anything till lunch- so i go about 5 hours without any food because I am just not hungry. Is this okay? I like to eat every few hours, but after such a large breakfast, I don't need to. Any advice?

    I am so glad to see you all back!!! Thanks :) I had a HORRIBLE day! It started off really well...however i got a package from my mom with some treats in it. It is so hard for me to have food in my dorm room without wanting to eat it all!! It is so frustrating!!! Does anyone have any suggestions?? I know i feel better when i eat well but when i get in that "mood", i just want to eat and eat...anything! What do you think I should do besides this thread...??? thanks for the help!

    Kels, I totally get where you're coming from... if I have any form of treat in my dorm room, I'm screwed and it'll probably be gone within the week. (one reason why I tell my mom not to send me stuff from home :tongue: ) If you've got somewhere else you can store it, do that, or even better, ask your roommate (if you have one) to take the treats and make sure you don't eat them. I do a lot better when all my treats are downstairs in the kitchen and I can't get to them as easily. Hope this helps!

    Day 2 for me! I'm hoping it'll go as well as Day 1 :smile:

    I know I am pretty late in this challenge but I am so glad i found it. This is definitely my biggest problem. I do great all day, I am a massage therapist so no eating at my "desk":laugh: but when I get home at night I find myself wandering into the kitchen and just taking bites of treats....they add up quickly. I wake up in the morning hating myself and not even wanting to log my foods!!

    I have been on this site long enough to know better but I get so hung up in this cycle of doing good then rewarding myself then feeling bad.....it stinks!! So I am going to start and probably will be hanging out here tonight so I can't get up and go to the kitchen....can't get up with a laptop in your lap:tongue:

    Good luck to everyone and thanks for the support.....Ang

    PS this is the first challenge I have joined!!!

    Thanks jmalone for the response! i just try not to have much food in my room and definately nothing like sweet unless i have planned it into my day!

    Today went okay, had a little too much tonight, but it was all fruit, so i consider that a good day! Day 1 accomplished!

    hope everyone has a great weekend!

    So I made it 12 days....12 DAYS....and totally screwed up this weekend. First last night and then again tonight. What is wrong with me? I always start to eat when I feel really bad about my weight. I feel like I am a huge blimp and will never lose weight ever!! I workout every day religiously but the food is getting me. I just feel so FAT. :cry: boo.

    Day 1 begins once again tomorrow...I hope everyone had a good weekend!

    P.S. Has anyone out there ever dealt with a past eating disorder wanting to return?
