    in No s*x in the Fitness Room? Comment by sophzhr February 2015
  • This is the first time in 6 weeks that I've gone the entire week without a binge metldown :) There are still 3 more days left to get through, but I'm determined to make them binge free! Tomorrow is my scheduled burger meal (yay!) and I'm eager to have it, enjoy it, and move on!
    in What was your one little victory today that deserves acknowledgement? Comment by sophzhr February 2015
  • Lots of really helpful answers here, thanks guys :) I'm pretty relieved, since when I do binge, I nearly always reduce my calories for the next day, primarily because I am not hungry at all. My binges are usually at night, so I can rarely contemplate much food for almost a good 24 hours...I end up eating around maybe…
    in Does eating less after a binge cause more damage? Comment by sophzhr February 2015
  • One issue I have with bashing the 'clean-eating' folk in particular is, despite the fact that I am certainly not going to attempt a lifetime without touching a processed item again, but just because the calories are the same in two foods doesn't mean they're of equal value. If you chugged 2000 calories of alcohol, you may…

  • Haha it sounds like it was amazing :smiley: Makes me wish I'd used my calories on something so delicious-sounding :p
    in Do you have a refuel day? Comment by sophzhr February 2015
  • Yes, it is after one week, but it's for mental purposes rather than physical. I get emotional eating urges, and could feel them coming yesterday, and today I was very hungry. Luckily my strength doesn't seem to be suffering, but it's early days yet :)
    in Do you have a refuel day? Comment by sophzhr February 2015
  • Thanks for the answers :) That makes sense - one of the reasons for me sticking to 1500 and not deliberately eating back exercise calories is because when I was eating 1800 calories a day, I found that I was more tempted to binge :( I have no idea why though. Also, since I do have emotional eating issues, the extra…
    in Do you have a refuel day? Comment by sophzhr February 2015
  • I spend my entire day working at home next to my kitchen, so the possibility of a binge is very high, 24/7 for me. Stress, loneliness and sadness are all triggers for me, so the usual 'distracting before it happens' is what I try first. Then I've started doing this: usually before a binge, I'll walk to the kitchen, reach…
    in How do you stop overeating/binging? Comment by sophzhr February 2015
  • I haven't been on MFP very long, but I'm completely amazed by the amount of support on here :blush: Thanks a lot everyone, it makes me feel a lot more motivated to be able to say I'm doing this with people supporting me (my family knows about it, but don't really 'get it' since they've never had these issues before, thank…
