Binge-free for 9 days in a row.
This is a milestone for me! I checked my food journal all the way back to 2012, and couldn't find a binge-free stretch of more than 8 days. 9 days ago I was in despair because I was struggling, and had pretty much been on a constant binge for the last 6 months. Now I'm feeling strong and confident. I know how quickly all this can change, so I remain vigilant.
Awesome! Keep up the good work Nancy!0 -
Many mistaken this group for trying to be binge free. That is not the objective of the challenge. This group and challenge is for helping us to be mindful NOT perfect. If you feel you have to be perfect to conquer binging then you are setting yourself for failure and disappointment. Consistency not perfection.Hey guys! I've been in this group for a while, but haven't really spoken up much. I wanted February to be the Binge-Free month, but I've already slipped up several times, not insanely severe binges (because I've managed to remove most trigger foods from the house), but not under control either.
I seem to be struggling doing it on my own, so I'm reaching out to you guys for help to keep me accountable.
I fought with The Binge again last night, and lost. So I am joining this challenge with all of you today, because I want to start fresh, once and for all! I haven't been accurately logging The Binge, but I am proclaiming as of right now that I will log it all! I will get this under control!

Cool idea! I'm game. I've never tried tracking this before but it seems like it could be very empowering!

Definitely upset with myself. My exam Friday went poorly and I gave in to the binge. Was able to bring myself back for Saturday, only to binge again on Sunday. I just feel helpless sometimes, like I fight month after month, only to keep making the same mistakes again. Well, I keep trying, because I have to, the alternative is way worse.
Also nervous about a doctors appointment in 2 weeks. 2 years ago I had high cholesterol, and when I came back a year later I had lost a lot of weight and got my cholesterol under control (and was applauded by my doctor). It's going to be embarrassing to go back around 10 pounds heavier than this time last year, and if my cholesterol has gone back up, that will make it even worse. Ugh.0 -

Two days into my experiment where I've stopped counting calories. I've found that I'm thinking about food a whole lot less and in turn I've been less afraid of binging.
Y'all are doing so well! Keep it up!0 -

Two days in a row of binging. I found out I was in first place for the Biggest Loser Challenge at work, and this week is the last week for the challenge, so of course I was super-excited to be winning. So what did I do? I totally sabotaged myself. I was on track to win, and then sabotaged myself. Why do I do this every. single. time...0 -

I also took a really important step today. I went to a psychotherapist for the first time to try to deal with some of the underlying issues of my eating disorder. I feel hopeful that my therapist will be a huge help!0 -

3 down! I'm traveling for 4 days this weekend so my goal is to eat normally. I'm not necessarily going to deprive myself but I'm not going to binge either!0 -

Tough day today. I felt a binge coming on so I parked myself on the couch (FAR from the kitchen) and spent about 5 hours doing nothing online. I was terrified to go out because a) I'd have to pass the kitchen and b) I was worried I'd buy a bag of candy to "just have one" if I left the house. I think I made it through the urge though, so I'm confident saying

Got sidetracked. I'm attempting to journal when I feel like binge eating to determine my reasons.0 -
