  • Yesterday I met with a nutritionist for the first time in probably about twelve years. Now I am super nervous. We didn't talk much about what I should be eating and how much or anything like that, but she mostly asked about my history and eating habits and stuff. Anyway I will cut to the chase: SHE IS RECOMMENDING I EAT…

  • BUT you made it nine days without a binge, and prior to that I believe you had made it at least five days without a binge. That is incredible and even though you're disappointed, please forgive yourself and realize how awesome you've been doing. Like you said the other day, it's unreasonable to believe we will just…
  • My weekly weigh in: Up 16 pounds from last week, but according to my weight trend I'm only up about 3 "real weight." I binged every day this week, so I'm surprised not lore damage was done. Many of them were somewhat smaller than usual, like around 5000 calories. So I guess I should be positive about that. I need this week…

  • This is the first time in a VERY long time. I will post in "treatment" at some point today about it!
  • Doughnuts and muffins, and yes...it's all downhill from here. I rarely start the day off this badly.
  • I think today is going to be bad for me. It's one of the few days I can get to the gym, and I decided not to. I've also cut down on my exercise a lot lately, which is unusual for me since it's usually a crutch. Now I feel like I've just given up. So I woke up and got doughnuts and muffins. Only a few since it was cash only…
  • Oh my god Irish...I just now realized your name is Irish JEEP girl. All along in my head it's been Irish SHEEP girl. Haha!
  • Irish, that's so nice of you. Thank you. And I find it fascinating that you're such an introvert but also a radio personality. I guess I would normally assume that's more of an extrovert type of career, but I guess now that I think about it I can see how you could be an introvert too! So cool. Msty that is so incredible,…
  • Oh I love greys anatomy! Although I kind of dropped off when Christina left, not so much because I wanted to but because that's when school started. So I have some catching up to do. I'm glad to see you are trying to write as an alternative to bingeing. I like your plan of drinking water and then having fruit of you need…
  • Welcome to the group! If you feel like it, please post in the introduction thread so we can get to know you a bit! I anticipate today being hard for me. I have one internship and then from there I had to go to my internship class, which I'm really dreading. The class only meets once every two weeks, but because of spring…
  • I know how you feel, but at the same time, it's kind of nice that they'll be strangers! You may feel more compelled to share things you might not otherwise. I bet that after your first appointment, you will feel some sense of relief.

  • That is so true! I am just back from the grocery store where I didn't get any on sale chocolate, but I can feel another binge coming on. I don't get it. Six out of seven days last week were binge free. That was the longest streak I've had since December. But now I've binged every day since Friday. The second I got out of…
  • That's great that it's worked so well for you. I've had mixed results with keto. The first time it was awesome, but the second time I felt a lot more deprived and obsessive about carbs, which I feel actually set off this bingeing cycle. I may have to give it another shot when I'm not bingeing so frequently. Respectthekitty…
  • It wasn't the worst but it wasn't good. I binged both Saturday and Sunday and today have consistently over eaten but haven't binged. I need to stop now because I just keep gaining weight and it's causing me more stress, which makes me want to binge more. All I can think about is how all of the Easter chocolate is probably…
  • I am so impressed, what is your secret?!
  • Great job, both of you! I have no Easter plans but have managed to fall off the wagon on my own regardless. It hasn't been horrible, and actually I wouldn't say I've been bingeing. Just consistently eating when I'm not hungry and not really craving the food I'm eating. I think I'll be going out to dinner a bit later.

  • And here I am again! I think I may binge again. I got the day started on the wrong foot, and luckily I don't have much food here. Because I'm feeling bingey, I think we will go out to dinner to celebrate but also like that whatever I eat is controlled. I think I'll probably overeat today but if I can just keep from…
  • That sounds very stressful! I despise public speaking/presenting and so I can see why that, coupled with feeling like your poster is unprepared, may have triggered a binge. However like sloth said, you still have plenty of time to get it done. Try to focus your feelings on something productive instead of bingeing (easier…
  • I slipped up a bit and then got it together but I can feel it happening again. In fact I'm going to a bakery to get doughnuts right now. I won't buy more than a few because last time the person made a comment about it and it was awkward, but I might grab some chocolate at the grocery store on the way home. I made it a…
  • I've never had peanut butter pie before but that sounds right up my alley. Good luck with that!

  • That is SO sweet! I think that is great to banish the scale. It sounds like it's for the best!

  • Up to four pounds in a week?!?!??!?!?!??!?!? I have gone up twenty pounds from morning to night before, after a particularly horrendous day! Granted, that's not "real" and mostly water, but still. It is hard to get back on track, I agree with you. I think we are all struggling with that. If you think the scale might be…
  • If people feel like it, they can just check in on here. Or the regular check in. Whatever, as long as people have a place to vent!

  • I would like that. I don't really have any major plans, but considering the way I'm thinking now I think it's going to be a pretty bad day.

  • I'm feeling kind of bingey today. I think part of it is in anticipation for tomorrow, and I always do this. The thing is, I don't even have a family event to go to tomorrow since I live far from family these days. It's just me and my husband, and it's his first Easter in the US. I've never cared much for Easter except my…
  • Thanks, I appreciate that. I'm really hoping this means my bingeing cycle is coming to an end, but I don't want to jinx it!

  • -0.8 from last week I have to say I'm disappointed. I only binged once, had a really good week, and barely lost anything. I think my weight is stabilizing and so hopefully after this I can start losing. I don't know if this bingeing cycle has ended or what, but I'm going to keep the same goals as last week. I'll probably…

  • If I make it through today, then I will have only binged one day this week and it's was pretty minor!
  • I came in at 3213 calories yesterday which is actually pretty good. I'm hoping that I got the urges out of my system and that I can be on track, at least for a few days. Today is an internship day so it tend to be more difficult, but I'm going to do my best. I hope everyone has a good day!
  • Great job, congrats!
