I have no idea what is leading to your binges, but strict diets are often associated with binges. What is your calorie goal per day?
I struggled with binges in the past when I tried to go too low calorie or when I restricted too many foods or restricted macro nutrients like fat or carbohydrates. Do you think this could be contributing to your issues?0 -

Do you mean that fish is the only animal product that you like?
You can still get protein from beans, grains, tofu, seitan, lentils, peas, and protein powders. Do you know how many grams of protein you're averaging per day now?0 -

So start counting calories then! I have had short spouts of binge eating in my past, up to a month at a time where I would binge terribly at least once a day. I found it was more a habit than anything. So once you break the habit - don't go back! If I have one bad day, yes it's tempting to give up the next day too but that turns it into a habitual cycle all over again. So if you are concerned about eating too many carbs, use MFP to log your food for a while, then make adjustments based off of what you see you are truly eating. The food diary is a great tool, so since you're here already, you might as well give it a try. I find that pre-planning and logging at least one or two meals for the next day helps me stay on track. I've successfully broken my last overeating phase and have been mostly on track for about 2 weeks now. It feels great. But if I didn't log my food, I wouldn't be able to keep myself accountable.0

binges mainly are on 3 things: cookies, cereal and crisps
(1) you could not buy them or keep them in the house.
(2) have you calculated how many calories it is? Maybe it's not as much of a "binge" as you think.
[(3) Someone using cookies and crisps in one sentence? What country are you from? *WBB's brain explodes*]
