    It will.. aaand like me, you could binge and regain some weight, i did, 45 pounds, but you just gotta keep going, maintenance is hard when your brain is working against you all the time..

    I am going to count tonight as a non binge. I am feeling pretty miserable tonight, i struggle a lot with borderline personality disorder so i have a lot of low moments. I don't really leave a whole lot of food in my apartment anymore, I have taken to cooking my meals at the boyfriends and freezing them, i only really make soups at my own place, and keep those on hand and then i have a few other things about. I did a little emotional eating, 4 slices of dry toast. But i stopped. And considering i have a 12 pack of ciabatta bread and a bunch of bagels in the freezer, i had the option of continuing. Since i chose to stop, i consider that a victory rather then a defeat.

    @Hellyeahitskriss ,

    OMG...Oh My God!!! That is one FABULOUS transformation & accomplished in a healthy way & time frame. Congratulations on seeing it though to the end & also for showing others that it can be done and helping out with your postings.

    YOU are MY inspiration to continue with my weight loss efforts & to never give up & I thank you for that!!!

    @Hellyeahitskriss ,

    Choosing to stop after "4 slices of dry toast" is a huge victory when there is a "12 pack of ciabatta bread and a bunch of bagels in the freezer" just waiting to be thawed! For us binge eaters, choosing to stop after we start is one of the most difficult things to do & definitely qualifies as a victory every time!
