Hey. I used to be primal and lost like 20 lbs with ease and felt so healthy. I am transitioning back to that lifestyle and am 3 days in. I already feel better, probably the decrease of sugars. I'll add you.

Everyone left really helpful and insightful comments. I notice that there I am really unhappy with the way things are in my life. Instead of confronting these things I bottle them up. I think that's where this imbalance is coming from. Its so hard to confront this because binging is embarrassing. I don't want to expose it…

I find myself doing this most days of the week lately. It like this cycle that repeats itself.

If I drink regular cow milk I get sick from lactose intolerance. I drink either coconut, almond, or lactose free milk. Mostly I drink almond milk because I like it.

I had those issues when I was a teenager. I got pregnant when I was 16 and ate healthy through the pregnancy and that really reset things for me. I gained a new perspective on things and realized that I should not starve myself. I was not "fat" but I was a healthy average weight. I always wore black and had horrible self…

I use organic apple cider vinegar (with the mother). I put a tsp or two in a cup of water everyday. I had an overgrowth of yeast and it helped rid me of that. I also use it to control acne breakouts.

I have the same problem and in the past I have found eating pickles, or drinking a cup of grapefruit juice really works to kill cravings. If its a chocolate craving buy more than 85% dark cocoa chocolate to get your fix. It is not mere willpower that will cure this problem. You have to find another way.

What is the wild diet?

This is a very inspiring post! Thank you for sharing. I also have a problem with binge eating and even have told my therapist who told me to "just chew gum" . This is a real disorder than can consume your life! I am at the heaviest I've ever been in my life. This posts helps me so much.

I think it is something I started as a kid and it got worse as an adult.

Stealth fail

I have a food scale. I can admit I haven't been logging everything. I have had changes in medications that I think messed up my body chemistry. I feel like I'm in a pit and don't know how to get out because I'm to heavy to pull myself up.

Its water weight from all the sodium in the fast foods!!!

What is phentermine

I drink all kinds of tea. Green tea, black tea, lemon ginger, and chamomile mostly. It can help curb appetite when cravings come. Increased fluid intake does help with weight loss as it makes you feel full and keeps you hydrated. Sipping on green tea is a lot healthier than sipping on soda if you don't use sugar.

Good job to everyone who is doing this! Your working your way to a healthier happier you!! Its been pouring rain here too so my plan has been delayed a bit. Let's just keep going. :smiley:

Hey everyone who is doing this! By Saturday I will be starting week 2. Today is week 1 day 2 for me.

I picked the three days I am going to do it. Day 1 is Saturday, Day 2 Monday Day 3 Thursday. I might add an extra day and just do day 3 twice to get 4 days of cardio

I love this app! I use the simple c25k app. It has the least glitches for my phone. It really eases you into jogging and it gave me a love for it. I made it to week 6 and stopped a few months ago. I want to start anew with others this time!

Sounds good but I don't know how that helps.

This worked for me! First successful day in awhile :)

Sorry I'm not or I would. Add me we can be friends.

I'm kind of ocd when it comes to cleaning. I also have a hyper 6 year old and my husband doesn't clean up anything. I like things neat and organized. I have had it set at lightly active and was having a hard time losing. I was eating way over my calories the past two weeks and have not gained anything! I think I needed to…

I have tried taking it but it made my stomach burn and I felt awful after the first week. And now when I take probiotics my stomach hurts horribly.

Thanks for all the helpful advice! I will look into those books recommended and talk to a counsler. It seems like its hard to do because I don't want to admit that I can not control myself sometimes with food. If I could I would go back in time to when I was younger and prevent myself from developing a bad relationship…

I don't know. Is this an eating disorder?

What I mean by clean eating is eating fruit, vegetables, meat, dairy, nuts, and whole grain pasta or bread. Not things like chips, box food kind of things. On a binge I will eat ice cream, candy, chips, snacks I usually wouldn't eat.

I use to have that problem. I realized I was restricting myself too much on "good" days. You have to find a good balance that can keep you consistent.

You are probably losing muscle if your not maintaining healthy nutrients for your body on a long term basis and yo yo dieting can cause muscle loss. Also your body is a very efficient machine that will adjust and become more efficient at using the energy put into it with minimal loss. You should mix up your routine and do…
