Curbing bingeing

Same! Herbal teas instead of snacks and brushing my teeth after meals have been really helpful tricks for me.

Honestly it takes practice. Will power isnt necessarily the right term since bingeing isnt exactly a choice, But i feel its a good thing to mention. Its like a muscle. More you use the willpower muscle stronger it gets and it definatly helps. Reach for lower calorie items whenever possible. Practice stopping a little faster each time. Stop if possible and go for a walk to get away from further temptation. Baby steps.

Best to practice stopping before it happens to. Learn your triggers, Are you bored? upset? mad? Are you just used to reaching for food? Is it habitual or mindset that starts it? Aim yourself away from temptations when you know it may be an issue. Do you binge late nights? after work? Find something to keep your mind/hands busy during these times. Each night i know i eat more so i dont eat until later in my day so i can have a few snacks before bed, And i do a whole beauty routine. Brush teeth really well, Wash my face and put on a facemask, sometimes if urges are to bad ill paint my nails it takes time for my nails to dry so i can drink water/tea and most times the temptations pass.

Really its all about listening to yourself and practicing the little things. You want to learn middle ground between indulging and bingeing.

Id also like to add that while i dont cut anything out of my diet (at all if i really want whatever ill eat it)

But i have found a few things in particular to help curb binges before they start.
1. Focus on my macros- While its not necessary at all for weight loss i found learning what my body likes (for me its high carbs moderate protein and fat) I was able to keep my hunger at a managable level
2. keep my bad binge foods out of my house, If i want it i walk to the FAR store and buy single servings- Me being lazy and nursing that fact actually worked in my favor here hah
3. Generally focus on fitting in alot of vegetables and different proteins and fats to keep my body nourished which again kept me satisfied enough to not reach out and begin a binge out of hunger.
4. When i felt out of control mood starting i go outside. Something so calming about a nice walk and walking tends to dull my hunger.
5. Pushing my hunger- but not to much. When i begin to feel hungry i drink a large glass of water and plan to have my meal in an hour. Helped me stretch out my calories without ever actually getting that hungry that id reach for something unhelpful to my weight loss
6. Be gentle on yourself, Its not all or nothing. 1 bad day doesnt ruin all your good ones unless you let it. baby steps. Every day is a new day. Just do the best you can with each one.

While i realize binging isnt even about hunger majority of the time, It is important to note that keeping my body overall happy and healthy definatly helped me. Hell, After a while of mostly "good" eating my tastes changed and even if i did binge it was mostly on much healthier things. Minor win
