What do you do about trigger foods? are those fair game too?
Yes, they are fair game as well. It's extremely hard at first, which is why I had some slip ups before this miraculous streak. But I find that, once I get used to it, I can enjoy my trigger foods in moderation. I do better with eating trigger foods rather then saying to myself, "no you absolutely can't have that", because then I just want it more!0 -

I've found the same thing. When I brought trigger foods back into my life, I binged less because I always knew it was there and available to me as opposed to telling myself no and going out of control once I ended up having said food item.0 -

Thanks for the advice you guys! I bought a sort of "medium level" trigger food at the store today because it looked really really good...and managed to have one serving today. Usually I eat the whole container in one go! I literally remember thinking last time I had some in the house "I'd better not eat any, because then I'll HAVE to eat all of it"

I'm so grateful to have found this group. I've struggled with BED for over 25 years.

First off, I just want to say, we all pretty much killed it, everyone did a great job this month!!
Some improvements I am proud of this month:
Made it a month binge-free (woohoo!)
Ate around/ a little less than maintainence calories, incorporating treats and triggers into my diet, and basically allowed myself to eat whatever I wanted and kept the binge at bay
Still keeping up with my New Years resolution, I have tracked all my food for the past 3 months!! (This is a big one for me!)
Got into a nice workout routine
Things to work on in April:
Differentiating stress hunger from real hunger
Keeping up the early morning workout routine
Possibly cut back on calories if I stop losing weight.0 -

Also great job! Easing into allowing trigger food is hard, but so worth it! This is a great first step!
