My goal is to be a healthier, happier active 61 year old. What happened in the past is in the past. I do not have to binge eat my life away.

Believe it or not, I watch my 600 pound life to keep me from binge eating. I am afraid that could be me one day.

Set small goals and celebrate small losses. I set 5 pound weight loss goals 46 pounds ago. Read as many inspirational weight loss stories as you can. When i feel like binge-eating, I watch my 600 pound life, And that usually keeps me motivated. I believe in you. You can do it. Do not think of this as a diet. Think of this…

I am 57 years old and remember binge eating as a child. I knew i was different from other people. I am so happy that this disorder has a name. All of the guilt and shame i felt was just awful. MFP has been so helpful for me. I am 1 month binge free.

I have not been diagnosed either and your story sounds familiar. I was on weight watchers too and gained a lot of it back. When I binge, I feel guilty and ashamed.

Most of my family have BED. I am doing well on MFP, but it is still a daily struggle, especially at night. Good luck with PT and MFP. I look forward to hearing from you again. I know we can change our lives with lots of support.
