Welcome!
Well this challenge is a challenge with yourself. The challenge is for you to win in the fight against "The Binge". Many of us struggle with binging and a few of us have found that making "The Binge" a person has helped us fight the emotions or urge to binge.
The objective of the challenge is to have more days for you (Me) than the "The Binge".
When you have a day you do not succumb to binge urges or binge give yourself (ME) a point. When you give in to the urge to binge you give 'The Binge" a point. No beating yourself up about it because tomorrow is another day. Honesty with yourself is crucial for it to help you and others.
So we keep score with ourselves the whole month. We encourage each other along the way. Please feel free to share your ups, downs, successes, struggles, etc. You will find you are not alone. See below for format. Feel free to use it or use your own format. This Challenge keeps you mindful of binging and the daily support and accountability helps also.
Check in often. The more you check and share the better you will do for the month. So are you in? You are stronger than “The Binge.” One day at a time.
Current month 2020:
Me (or you can use your user name or real name) - 0
The Binge - 0

Well, here we go. I don't know how many of you will be joining me. March was a terrible month for me with grief from my pet's death and the start of COVID-19. I need to make myself accountable again, so here I am.

Hello - I binged last night. I have been on a low carb diet and overall it’s helped tremendously with cravings and over eating. But last night let me m ow it’s not only about sugar addiction. It’s about behavior patterns and compulsions and I’m sure even more. So here I am.

Last night I had the binge urge - I had a second dinner and the only reason I didn’t go full binge Is because it was so rich and filling and gave me gas 🤣. Anyway I went over my target calories but was still ended up at maintenance calories. I’m calling it a success at least compared to a true binge.
