I've been struggling with binge eating twice in the past three days. What can I do?

If you can pinpoint the trigger, try making a conscious effort to do something else instead. If it's a hand-to-mouth impulse that feels like it NEEDS to happen, something with a finite and reasonable quantity to discourage binging (rather than a fraction of a big bag of chips, just have a small bag) or things that take a little more time/effort to eat. I know by the time I've picked through half a pomegranate, most of my craving motivation is gone and if not, there's still another half to go through. Nuts in shells that need to be cracked. Sunflower seeds. Sometimes even just a hot tea with a lot of flavor can help (there are some pretty strong fruity, herbal teas and even some with cinnamon or chocolate flavors).0
