Here's my advice that has been helping me as I'm getting over binge eating and eating better lately: If you're walking and you fall, you dont just lay there and give up. And you certainly dont purposefully make yourself fall because you fell before. So why on earth would you purposefully binge eat or over eat just because…

Thank you for your response!!! I really appreciate you taking your time to write this and share it with me! Have a wonderful day <3

Hi all! Nice to meet you guys, I'd love to be part of this thread, I think it's very cool. About me: Height: 5'1 HW: 220lbs LW (as an adult): 150lbs CW: 174lbs GW: anywhere between 99-150lbs lol. Today my goals are: ~ to eat 1400 calories or less ~ to exercise for 30 minutes/or burn 200 calories.. or at least exercise even…

That's great! Yes, cutting out the self-soothing with food is such a biggie for me too. When I do that, I eat so much less and lose weight and feel so much better long term. It's very hard in the moment for me when I have a binge urge or intense craving for high calorie snacks when I'm upset but it's SO SO SO worth it for…

Hi! I love the Walk at Home with Leslie Sansone videos :) Also, I like MadFit, and I use other vidoes from other channels but I can't remember at this moment the names! I like the ones with BTS music in the background haha, oh and Blogilates is good too. and the 10 minute solution vidoes! and just searching for whatever…

Thank you all for your responses and insight, I appreciate you guys taking the time to comment on my post!! <3 have a great day

thank you for the tips! I'm going to try them. I'm sorry you're feeling self conscious about being out, that's such a terrible feeling to feel stuck inside the house because of these feelings.. I hope you can find confidence to be able to go outside of the house and feel good about yourself soon. you're worth so much and…

6.5 months dude.. you're such an inspiration!!! That is incredible work and you look happier!!

thank you everyone for your answers!!! So kind of you guys to take the time out of your day to write the answers :smile: It's good to see how other people who've found some success with this area handle this. :smile:

Hi there, I also have troubles with binging and sometimes with purging. I'd love to have some buddies that understand... I am 23, 5'1, 200 pounds. Looking to lose around 80 pounds and stop binging and purging.

aw, I'm sorry you're feeling bad @trulyhealy :( you dont have to feel ashamed about it, it's not a moral failure, it's just food. But I totally understand feeling ashamed, I eat as a coping mechanism a lot too and the shame and self-hatred can get so so bad. Something that helps me is to keep reminding myself that it is…

Thank you everyone for taking the time to answer my question! :) you guys rock!

whoa really? that's awesome! do you mind sharing what activity level you were at, what/if any exercises you did?

I agree, that was really well put :) :) have a great day!

I think shaming fat people does not help them. I think bullying is not okay no matter who you're bullying. I dont think fat should be 'glamorized' anymore than I think smoking cigarettes, or any unhealthy habit, should be glamorized. But the person shouldn't be shamed, either. I dont see making plane seats accommodating…

I can't speak for anyone else, but in my experience, the only times that I have successfully lost weight was when I didn't have a scale in my house to even check. I weighed in at doctor appointments and sometimes at grocery stores that had scales. But every time I bought my own scale, I immediately became obsessed,…

hi there, not sure if im doing this right.. Oct 19 Me: 1 Binge monster: 0 Days binge free: 1

im sorry you struggle with this too, and everyone else who commented!! i feel the same. it's really difficult.

I feel like crying after reading this. this is very insightful and I think 100% true for me when it comes to binge eating/emotional eating :) This post is so kind and gentle. I *never* treat my binge urges with gentleness. Maybe it will be better if I try doing that, and like you said, dont give it food because that's not…

Great job!! :) that's awesome!!!

wow great job, i can see a big difference!!! you're so beautiful, in both pics. this is inspiring :)

I'm so sorry you're feeling so bad!! I've been there a so many times before. that feeling after a binge when you're trying to lose weight is just one of the worst feelings ever in my opinion. the self hate is real.. i dont know exactly what to say to help, other than that you're not alone and you're being too hard on…

inspiring!! you look amazing! :) thanks for sharing, congratulations on the weight loss!
