I think we will always struggle with that. I have relapsed many times. I've been doing a ton of work on the issues behind my eating and it has helped tremendously. Just know that you are not alone.

I gained 8 pounds in a week earlier this month...I think it would have been worse if I didn't find this group. I joined around May 4th I think. The awareness helps me...forcing myself to log on and be accountable to this group helps.. I had 2 particular foods that a binged on for 2 weeks and I am feel lucky I managed to get some control back.

What helps me is cutting out just 1 or 2 of my biggest trigger foods and giving myself a time frame to do it. I start with 1 day..I usually fail the first few days and get frustrated.. and then I make a larger goal like a week or month without my main triggers and it really helps break the cravings. This time it worked to help me stop binging all together...I'm on my 10th day and feeling good about it (not having symptoms)?

That is what has worked for me historically. I am curious what works for others..but yes, this happens..it is something I know I will always have to deal with..

I recovered from a HORRIBLE binge cycle last year where I gained 25lbs in a month (it would have been more of I wasn't working out). Symptoms are starting to come back but with certain foods.

Anyone else have this happen?
