Day 1--May 1 2014
1. Why are you doing the 50 day binge free challenge? I am doing the 50 day challenge because i have a severe problem with the "all or nothing" mindset. If i start to enjoy a small piece of forbidden food than i decide im going to eat whatever i want. And if i am going to eat whatever i want then i better eat as much bad…

My Day 1
I have been a binge eater for many years. It all started when I moved from California to Oklahoma to go to college and be with my family. I left my home and started a new life with no friends and no one to talk to. It was very hard. But 12 years later I have an amazing husband and some good friends. I miss home everyday…

I even binged today which pushed me over the edge and i am now challenging myself to try a 50day challenge of no binge eating. I will write my emotions in a diary as well as track my food and exercise…

This is a great group
How exciting! I love a challenge! I started with overeating in college. Picked up a bad habit from a friend who was diabetic and couldn't really control herself. In any case, I am really excited about this and I look forward to counting the days. I had a really terrible day yesterday but overcame my urges, threw away the…

Day 1 Newbie
Hi there, I thought I would introduce myself to this board. I am 26 years old and have had a BED since I was about 14 years old. Last year I was diagnosed with anorexia at only 8 stone and 5.10 I looked awful. I had managed to maintain that weight for 5 years. Last year my fiancé's mother passed away, she was my second mum…

Day 3 _ what do you define as a binge?
Day 3: What do you define as a binge? I suppose consuming anything over 400 calories in a short space of time, that isn't classed as a main meal, would count as a binge for me. But I find it's more about my mental state, than the act itself. When I'm not hungry, but I'm craving something to eat, and I just can't stop…

Day 2 _ post a recent picture of yourself.....
Day 2: Post a recent picture of yourself! Don’t body-shame, name two things you like about yourself in this picture. 1. I like that I'm wearing a UK size 12 pair of skinny jeans, and that I've never looked as thin as I do here. 2. I like that I'm smiling so much. I'm wearing only mascara and my hair was shoved up without…

Day 1 - why I'm doing this
Hi, I'm new to this group. I would very much like to get my bingeing under control because it makes me feel emotionally awful and physically very sick. I've diminished my binges, decreasing the days I binge from daily 2/3 to 1 a week. Though I'd like to get rid of that one day to, because it messes up my calorie budget and…

Day 12 _ why do you think you binge?
Day 12: Why do you think you binge? Be honest with yourself. My binging is definitely emotional. When I feel stressed or depressed, I automatically reach for food. I never used to binge. But over the past 6-12 months I've been under a lot of pressure, very stressed out, and feeling quite low. And it's probably no…

day 11 _ hardest thing you've had to do?
Day 11: What is the hardest thing you’ve had to do? It can be fitness, social, mental, etc. The hardest thing I've ever had to do was let get of an unhealthy relationship. (this may sound lame, but I'm only 19 so I've not got a lot of struggles to choose from, thankfully) I liked him a hell of a lot more than he liked me.…
