Me: 13 Binge: 11 BW: 36-17 DBF: 4 So that DBF is an extra motivational number you guys inspire me with. Guess I'll go back to adding it to my challenge here. And @Moxie42 I like your DABF tally if I understand it as a (2) drink minimum ... but might wait on that one too many numbers. Hey lets start Monday with a victory.…

Me: 12 Binge: 11 BW: 35-17 A rare Saturday Night victory ... staying optimistic

Me: 11 Binge: 11 BW: 34-17 An optimistic pre-day victory entry to help power a challenging day ahead.

Me: 10 Binge: 11 BW: 33-17 @moxie42 So I have the same rule {2 drink maxium}. And yes fully understand the issue with alcohol and how it weakens me to the BINGE. But I cannot give up food and cannot give up a great craft beer. Both are a necessity to a healthy life for me if held to the rules. I like your new tally best of…

Me: 9 Binge: 10 BW: 32-16 @mae918 Awesome! @branbuds know that BINGE well.

Me: 8 Binge: 10 BW: 31-16

Me: 8 Binge: 9 BW: 31-15

Me: 7 Binge: 9 BW: 30-15 @mae918 Sorry for the emotional pressure of a breakup. Even us folks married can understand that stress to our disorder. A negative time for a spouse can pull down the other. @KnitOrMiss I'm just trying to keep a longer tally than the month. For some reason I have the 100 day number in my head. I…

Me: 6 Binge: 6 BW: 29-12 @moxie42 Thanks but look at you guys. You folks seem to have a handle on our battle right now as well. All the regulars here WOW!

Me: 5 Binge: 6 BW: 28-12 Obvious my numbers of victories against the BINGE this month don't reflect it but so postive right now. Maybe it was the long walks along the Gulf coast last week and getting away. Maybe its just spring, it was gorgerous yesterday here even from my office window. But rescripting this bad habit we…

Me: 4 Binge: 6 BW: 27-12 The BINGE is such an easier opponent on my own turf. But maybe having a few days of rest and relaxation gave me a new approach to thinking about how to change the habit that allows the BINGE any victories at all.

Me: 3 Binge: 6 BW: 26-12

Me: 1 Binge: 4 BW: 24-10 Vacationing on the Gulf of Fl. Too much sea/see food for a mountain man to avoid with the BINGE shouting "Hey your on vacation have a ...". Did win 1 yesterday finally.

Me: 20 Binge: 5 BW: 25 @branbuds great advice ditto to @moxie42 and it does get tiring fighting our disorder but most of us know where it leads and those options are not worth giving away our health. I hope you can talk yourself thought this period. @RunawayCurves that was good advice. I begged my wife to not buy those…

Me: 19 Binge: 5 BW: 24 I believe the BINGE used my EGO to talk me into the last 2 defeats. And maybe some battle fatigue.

Me: 19 Binge: 4 BW: 23

@branbuds I see you found it. I think many of us have this issue. This is one that I also believe men and women both share. I realize men and women have different issues with calories and weight loss but this one is universal for the sexes. @moxies42 funny ... I do stop at going to the store on a BINGE but would definetly…

Me: 19 Binge: 3 BW: 22 It worked but not suggesting to anyone the approach. Fasting until you go to a bar, having a couple of beers and eating an Ahi Tuna Salad with dressing and a bag of popcorn. Then saying NO to the BINGE the rest of the evening. If any of you guys didn't read that article about BED {Binge Eatting…

Me: 18 Binge: 3 BW: 21 A return battle to the Carolina Ale House and the NCAA basketball tournament today. Have an new stragegy not sure it the healthiest approach but if I can keep the BINGE pressured from attacking tonight a victory is a victory right?

Yes a good article I am that rat that would eat the cookies! But as that rat I found if I just make a rule that changes that cycle of night time eating and fight it like a battle of my worse enemy it works for the most part. It's like if I don't win and eat a simple bag of popcorn the BINGE wins and 2000 calories later I…

Me: 17 Binge: 3 BW: 20

Me: 16 Binge: 3 BW: 19 Spring is in the air lets keep that BINGE on the run.

Me: 15 Binge: 3 BW: 18

Me: 14 Binge: 2 BW: 16

Me: 13 Binge: 2 BW: 15 It wasn't the basketball, it wasn't beer it was an unexpected carry out that my wife brought home from a soul food restaurant that somehow got the BINGE talking about the food of my southern youth. I guess this war we fight with BINGE cannot always be planned. I'm not on retreat though just doubling…
