    @IngridMann17 I am agree with you it's so "easy" to lose weight, maintaning it is really hard!
    guessing it's habits I do have for the rest of my life ...

    I bought groceries this morning and decided to try mixing a few dry ingredients to create a 321 microwave dessert.
    I won't mention anything else (to prevent triggering anyone) but I lost control with this easy recipe and decided that I have to throw away the mix or else it will be sitting there next time I have an urge. I'm also contemplating cutting back on sugary foods again because they seem to be the foods I have the least control with. I'm bummed that I binged a lot today and physically feel blah - but I am proud that I threw away the food that I lost control with.

    I hope everyone is doing well in their fight against the binge.

    Inching closer to a month!

    There have been a few days where I didn't eat the best food, but none of the obsessive overeating. I've even gone to two different buffets - Indian and Chinese - and didn't make 4 trips, each bringing back a giant mound of food. I took small portions, chose lots of veggies, and stopped when I was full!

    Crossing my fingers now because I'm on Prednisone for my asthma, which has a tendency to make me want to eat the curtains. haha. I'll be here if the urge strikes!

    So happy to have found this Group and this thread's 'tracking' aspect appeals to me.
    After having lost almost 90 lbs. over the past 18 months, I'm really struggling with maintenance. It's like I know how to lose weight but I don't know how to maintain it.
    Determined to keep trying though!

    I have very similar experiences. I find comfort in eating in a deficit much of the time because it is much more controlled. I had my first binge in forever last month and it started because I had a day that I had to really increase my calories due to my maintenance level and a bunch of exercise. It went off the rails. However, I also realized that I need to eat more all through the day and not leave so many calories for dinner and beyond. That has been helping me.

    Thanks for this insight, I need to remember to eat throughout the day (in a controlled manner) as well on those high-ish calorie days.

    I keep buying food to binge on (chocolate) but then do not want it. I am feeling a little stressed and think that chocolate would help but I know it won't. I should throw it away but I hate to waste money. I think putting this out there in writing will get me to stop buying the chocolate. The source of my stress should be resolved tomorrow.

    Thanks for your support!

    Hi there! I just found this support group and I like it. I am joining you if you don't mind. So far today I have been sticking to my daily calories and planned food. I will report tonight if the day was binge-free.
