Good morning
Hi I was wondering if this group was active. I know I’ve been a binge eater for sometime. I go to a see a therapist once a week but I’ve not found a tool to help me from 4pm onward when I start to get tired. Do any of you have any tips or struggle similarly at this time of day?

Welcome back
This group tends to stay pretty quiet but we are out here!!

Are any of you like me? Older? Not what doctors label heavy? On Vyvanse?
I went to an ED support group - but I easily had 20 years on everyone. I went to an OA support group - but they ridiculed me because I'm not heavy. Please, let there be someone like me. I'm 48, 5'4 and weigh 122 - a very misleading number that doesn't reflect what I see or feel. I've only recently been officially diagnosed…

Please Help!
At the moment I am extreme binge eating around once a week. Although this is better than everyday like I used to, it is really getting me down. I am frustrated, and just tired. It really feels like all of the good habits I practice the rest of the time are just wiped out in a moment of weakness. I am especially triggered…

Working and B.E.D.
Do you find your line of work impacts you and your B.E.D? Or do you find you are more prone to binges while at work? For me I used to be the architect of my own demise. For me I am a Chef, and I am also pretty good with pastries and baking. So before I was diagnosed I would cook and bake and eat and have no control.

What is your solution to binge eating? Please share how you stopped binge eating!!!!
How does the drug Vyvanse work? I try to avoid wheat, flour and sugar. I do things like yoga, meditation, etc but continue to binge eat faithfully once a week. I have tried many different programs and hypnosis but nothing seems to really help. Remaining abstinent from wheat, flour and sugar has worked the best for me. But…

Hi Newbie here
Thanks for allowing me to join!!! I have a history of chronic migraines and a week ago today I started on Topamax. It also is an appetite suppressent. 2 days ago I started on 60 Vyvanse.

Hi
Hello once more to those of you who still check in. I am still here and checking daily for posts. In June I re injured my arm digging a ton of holes looking for a sewer line at my house and since my elbow was already in a weakened state from tendonitis 5 years ago I made it much worse. Then while my body was trying to…

Birthday
So I had my birthday yesterday and for the first time in years I was not over indulging on cake, and asking for multiple desserts. It felt nice to just have a small piece of cake and be done with it.

My Little Buddy
My son graduated preschool last night. He was very proud, as am I for him. I know it is just preschool but it shows he is growing up so quick.

Weigh-ins
I choose Wednesday as a weigh-in day as I read somewhere it is the most accurate day to weigh yourself. Most of you probably know but weigh yourself at the same time each week, wearing whatever you feel comfortable in, but make sure to wear similar weighing clothing each week to help keep things accurate. Starting weight…

Life and the funny paths it takes...
I just needed to share with people in the hopes I can clear my head of what is going on. So I have mentioned my son and his hyperactiveness and that at times he can be a bit of a handful. We took him to a child psychologist a few months ago to get him evaluated for ADHD and sensory processing disorder. We met with the…

Chocolate addiction ?
I have food addiction in general but it is especially addiction to chocolate. I can eat an entire box of ferraro rocher + couple malteazers + couple snickers bars in 1 sitting washed down with a can of coke zero. Yes its that bad. I'm 3-4 months clean from binging...but the struggle is real. Anyone else?

Honesty with binge eating
I've recently told my amazing husband abt my ED. He does not quite understand it. But accepts it and wants me to get help if I think I need it. I told him I binge but I have not been honest about ....how big my binges are. He might think they are just entire huge bag of chips or 5 candy bars. But the fact that I literally…

Treatment?
