    :') I am very happy about this, since I haven't gone a week without binge-ing for three months before July.
  • this is really slow, but can i still join?

    of course, go ahead!
  • What do you mean by binge monster?

    the inner 'binge monster', we're just counting the days we've gone without binges and on a bad day or binge day the binge monster overcame us, haha

    I need some encouragement. so count me in. Trying to lose part of the 70 pounds that I gained in the last 10 years...Hope this help me. I have a bad habit of letting a day or two binge ruin all and any progress I have made. i guess maybe if i say I have x-amount of good days and y-amount of bad (binge). Maybe just maybe will a little help from my new friends (ie all of you) I can finally start losing all this weight instead of continuing to gain...

    Oh that nasty little bugger ALMOST had me. I was having a really crappy day. You know, one of those days where Murphy was an optimist? It got so bad I really really wanted a drink (maybe not a binge to most but definitely not on my healthy regimen) I told myself no though, that I could push through. I ended up just making myself a yummy and healthy dinner and dessert (guilt free cherry cheesecake) and took a long walk in the park. I'm feeling so much better now and the nasty little bugger didn't get me. YAY!

    Me : 8 (31 days in a row actually)
    Binge Monster : 0

    Take that!

    I'm a little late to the party, but I'm in too! I just had a binge on 4 packets of Dora fruit snacks. It's a binge because one would've done me just fine. Dammit.

    HAD MY FIRST BINGE SINCE STARTING THIS DIET/LIFE CHANGE.

    I live in Wisconsin and every year we have the worlds largest music festival, Summerfest. Basically its a gigantic music ground with lots n lots of fair food. I decided, since I only go once a year, to cheat. Just this once. That tiny cheat turned into...

    1) my own personal 8" pizza
    2) a beer (lucky it wasnt way more than that!)
    3) half my boyfriends hot wings
    4) a bag of roasted, salted nuts
    5) half of my boyfriends second oreder of hot wings since I ate so much of his first ones
    6) half an order of cheese curds.

    I am still trying to work off the 2-3lbs I gained in that one night UGHHHH never again!

    Winning: 4
    Binge: 2
    On the Fence: 2

    The past two days I have technically come in under my goal, but I am not doing this how I want to do it and I'm not feeling accomplished at the end of the day. I feel like I'm giving up. So I added the "on the fence" category. I'm hoping that posting on here for the third time will help give me the kick I need to start doing this correctly again, because I'm getting frustrated with myself.

    So far Lis 9 - Binge Monster 0!!

    I'm having a really difficult day today though. I want to eat everything in the house! I keep sitting here fantasising about all my favourite foods and driving myself insane.

    For all those who are taking part in this challenge, Keep up the GREAT work! The Binge Monster may win a few small battles, but we WILL win the Binge War!

    Mainly due to a messed-up sleep schedule that has me time-shifted by a few hours, so I end up getting ravenously hungry at 1am and ended up bingeing :(

    I'm IN! June sucked but July is a new start! no Real binges so far, I did eat an entire veggie pizza from TJ's yesterday (no cheese) but that was after burning over 700 calories. So I'm not really considering that as a binge. lol I WANT HOT ABS so that means no bingeing and no processed crap.

    Starting today, July 9:
