Hey friends, Sorry I've been a bit MIA around here. I hope everyone is doing well. I wanted to let you all know about this awesome app I downloaded yesterday. It's called Recovery Road, or RR. It's available for Android, iPhone, and I believe Blackberry (don't quote me on that). Basically, it has you log your food (just…

A month into it: how is everybody going?
Successes? Struggles? Do you think this has helped in anyway? For me personally, I think I have done tremendously well. I actually relapsed on friday night and had a binge but found I was able to pick myself back up instead of snowballing into the following days. And only 1/2 binges in a one month period is a big success…

Very Bad Weekend... and then CRASH!
I was so proud of myself last week... even being stuck in the house because of the weather, I stayed on track. The one night I had the urge to hit the fridge in the middle of the night, I stopped myself.... and then Friday night I got really upset, and I haven't been able to stop since then! :sad:

Then last night I ordered…

Last night I went to the gym much later than normal. I had already had dinner, and really enough calories for the day. When I got home I was doing fine, but…

Overeating vs. binging
Something I've been working on in my road to recovery is differentiating between overeating and binging. Overeating isn't ideal, but it happens, and it's something normal eaters do. Binging, however, is disordered behavior. It's inevitable that everyone will overeat at some point (hello Christmas, Thanksgiving, birthdays,…

Moderation/"Treats"
A challenge for myself this year is to be able to practice moderation and occasionally indulge without going way overboard. Just wondering if others have similar goals and how you all plan on being successful. I had two treats last week while on vacation, and it was good because I was in a restaurant setting, so couldn't…

[Challenge] Had a binge? Post a recount!
-What did you binge on? -Where were you when you binged? -What time of the day was it, when you binged? -Why do you think this happened? As suggested by Diary_Queen on the challenges thread, I thought this would be a great idea. Not only does it promote personal accountability but it may help people zone in on their…

Week Two- A success?
Hi guys, so it's 2 weeks into the new year and I'm wondering how everyone went? I personally had a bit of a slip up on Sunday night but have since been able to pick myself up from it and otherwise had a pretty good week!
