    Binge is my daily buddy. In this article, I particularly relate to having second bite when the first didn't taste very good, just to see if the next bite will taste better. How nutty is that!!

    I am currently 8 days binge-free.

    This article was a great read. I can totally relate. The second bite, even though the first was bad. How sick and twisted I am. But, the other night, I wanted a little something sweet and the kiddos had some valentine's Laffy Taffy. So I got ONE and I took a little nibble. I didn't like it, so novel idea, I threw it away, even the bite in my mouth, I spit it in the trash. I feel like my eyes are opening slowly but surely.

    Why did this article make me teary?! Maybe because Edy's ice cream and I went head-to-head this morning and I lost :embarassed: And my husband asks me what is wrong with me for eating 8 servings and then wondering why I have weight problems...:huh: Thanks for bumping this. I think I needed it today :heart: Damn binges. Grrrrr. Next time I'll take my 3 minutes :smile:

  • Thank you so much for this post! I've had two days of this....what I eat isn't bad - haven't had one thing that I shouldn't...but it's the way I'm eating it - and the out-of-control feeling that I have when I'm eating it! THREE MINUTES...love that - and am going to do that when I feel the binge coming on.

    I don't know why but this old post seems appropriate, too.
