What was your WORST binge ever?

Entire bag of baked lays with entire container of helluva good French onion dip

Entire can of spaghettios

King size snickers bar


Did I mention this WAS ONE BIGE! YIKES

1/2 gallon of chocolate icecream in one sitting-funnily enough I just wrote about that in my blog this morning. It made me so ill, I was crying half the night. Thankfully, it made me so sick that I have never wanted to experience it again.

I can remember eating a bag of oreos--not in a sitting, but definitely in a day. The same with the peanut butter girl scout cookies! Oh my goodness!

oh yes.

bag of oreos lasted a couple days tops. girl scout cookies : one day. box of cereal : maybe two. the large symphony bar? most of it gone in a night.

yikes

I am a total chocolate fiend! I gave up chocolate for a year and have mostly been able to control my desire for it since. Thank goodness!

My husband and I are serial bingers. One time we decided to go on 'The Great Fast Food Run". We listed our favorite fast foods and then plotted out a course to get each of our faves without them getting cold. I ate Chick Fil A nuggets (large), large McDonald's fries, a Big Mac, 4 crunchy tacos from Taco Bell, a Hardees Thick Burger, Jack in the Box Sourdough Jack, a large pizza from Papa Johns, Bojangles chicken and mashed potatoes and some other stuff that I can no longer remember. I ate all of that in one sitting and washed it down with a 2 liter of Diet Coke. I felt so ashamed afterwards. I've also always seen buffets as a personal challenge; averaging around 4-5 plates--especially Indian. I'll eat until my stomach hurts so much that I can't move out of the restaurant and have to wait for it to subside. I once managed 6 heaped plates and dessert at a Chinese restaurant with my family. It's really disgusting. Until I joined MFP, I would go to the McDonald's close to my house at least once or twice a week and eat a Big Mac, cheeseburger, large fries, chicken nuggets and a large Diet Coke in my car and then hide the bags or make out as though I had only eaten something small. I'm owning my problems now and can proudly say that I have not binged in over 2 months. It really IS an addiction and the hardest thing about being a food addict is that you can't detox from food. You need it and it's all around you. I'm counting everything I eat now and on the few occasions I have gone over, I own it and learn from it. The key is NOT to treat it as though it's a one-off or a funny 'treat'. It's a symptom of an illness. I think about everything I eat now. That's not to say I don't eat 'bad' things. I just claim them on my food journal and ensure I'm within my limits. I avoid my binge triggers and I'm healthier for it.

i've done the pizza thing. i could still do the pizza thing and be hungry afterwards.

also an entire half-gallon of ice cream in one sitting. at some point it became a contest to see if i could finish

(i did, and then i discovered what that much blue food coloring does once, um, processed)

I was/am (trying to quit) a weekend grazer. I also buy groceries on Saturdays - so most of Saturday and all of Sunday I would just eat whatever I wanted, when I wanted it. Very bad thinking. I'm trying very hard to break that habit.

I had to reply to this quote because not long ago I had a piece of birthday cake and took the corner piece with lots of frosting. It was trimmed with blue frosting. The next morning it looked like I pooped out a smurf!!! Never again.

nutella = crack..

Definitely. I've often been known to joke that whomever said that nothing tastes as good as skinny feels has obviously never eaten Nutella straight out of the jar

I'm pretty sure I would binge almost every day without realizing it before MFP.

But one thing I used to do often is eat an entire jar of cheese dip (with chips) and once I could no longer dip the chip in the jar I would crush the chips into the jar and eat it with a spoon. It sounds so gross to me now but I wouldn't even think about bad it was for me.

Horrid, horrid PMS binge. Tobelrone in one hand, salt and vinegar kettle chips in another with diet pepsi. It was ugly and I was ill afterward.

Oohhhhh yes. Damn the nutella yumminess.

Just this past Saturday...oh boy! Here we go...I had 2...count 'em 2 McDonald's Sausage Mcmuffin with egg, 4.5 hasbrowns, and another half of english muffins with strawberry jam on it. I was 60 calories away from my remaining calories before 11am. WOW!!!:noway: :frown: :embarassed: :sad:

bump

2 Wendy's double Stacks, 2 Jr. Bacon Cheeseburgers, and a large fries, washed down with a large Coke. I ate it because of a combination of extreme hunger and depression.

I've had many, but the one that comes to mind is a half a brick of Costco size sharp cheddar cheese with salsa. I used the cheese as chips. I'm sad to say I can no longer have dairy, but if I could I would probably do this again.... I guess not having dairy is good for the diet.

Ugghh....fast food. Just went and binged on a double Baconator at Wendys. Now..I need a nap, and a stomach pump.

Just last night went to Olive Garden with my husband and got the Tour of Italy. 2 breadsticks, bowl of Chicken Gnocchi, 2 bowls of salad, plate of Mozzarella Smothered Chicken and Penne, Chocolate and Caramel Dolcini and a beer... I was very disappointed and still am...
