Any binge eaters want to support each other?

Any type of binge eater... compulsive, post-diet, obese, skinny, ED recovered / recovering, BED, for 20 years or 2, etc.

    Are you heavy into fitness? I ask because of your profile picture. I started compulsively binge eating after a competition prep. If you're interested Google the book "Brain Over Binge" it taught me where the binge urges come from in your brain and a thinking technique to detach from it. I'm almost completely past it but still want to reach out to other people.

    There's a pretty active binge discussion thread up... might check that out, met some good ppl there. :) There's also a BED group among the group section.

    Hi Jessi :)
    Sure I'll post the Group link as soon I can find it. :D

    Unfortunately after MFP did an update in the Fall the group search feature was lost! :'(
    But I do know one of the Mods/Owners of the group and I'll check with them for the link.

    I'll ping you on here again when I get the info :)

    I need support from people that understand binge eating. I made a whole batch of cookies for just me a minute ago. I had one and then threw the rest out. That was a big step for me because usually I would have eaten the whole batch in one sitting with three glasses of milk. I need support please add me. Thanks
