I’m falling back into a binge eating disorder which totally is bringing me down. In these ten days of spring break help me be the bet I can to my body and try cut out my bad habits and get active everyday.
On a side note. I have been running on the treadmill a bunch! But feel it’s just making my legs bigger. Maybe I don’t need so much protein? Any motivation or tips on how to loose weight or help stop binge eating would be GREATLY appreciated !

    Trying to stop binge eating habits and develop healthy habits instead, would be great. I don't know your statistics, but expecting/wanting to lose 10lb in 10 days, seems extreme and unhealthy in itself. Restricting calories to much, could be setting you up for another binge/restrict cycle.

    Have you been in treatment for BED? It may be worth getting in touch with your team again.

    You're not going to lose 10lb of fat in 10 days

    Setting a goal to be active every day is a good thing. Attempting to lose 10 lbs. in 10 days is not. You must be aware that you're about to start the restrict part of a binge-restrict cycle, since you're aware you're currently in the binge stage. You need to connect with your treatment team immediately, you're having a relapse and the longer you let it go on the harder it will be to break the cycle. Hugs - take care of yourself!
