Said on page 3. Also. I am not promoting my behavior nor am I telling people they can binge and lose weight and remain fit. Said on page 4 Also I know eating until I couldn't walk like last time is not a good thing so I was waiting for food to digest before getting another plate giving myself time to digest to see if i was…

@igfrie Thanks for sharing. BMI is a useless measurement in my opinion and many other peoples. While it works for most people, it doesn't work for people with large amounts of muscle mass. The only number I care about is body fat%, my blood works numbers, my cardio vascular health and if I have enough strength to do things…

True, but for me, going to the park every week for a get away isn't as enjoyable as going over seas for vacation. :smile: And I don't think I have it all figured out. I just don't think I'm in denial of a problem that I need to seek professional help.

@briscogun @novusdies I agree, i'm going to stop saying binge since it probably isn't exactly what I am doing. But my form of dieting is to eat in a deficit to have a nice meal much like what you guys do. My opinion is eating at maintenance will just lead to weight gain. There are always going to be occasions that you will…

I only binge when I plan on doing it. Outside of AYCE places, I will goto carousel sushi places and binge until i'm satisfied. Sometimes that could be 20 plates of sushi or more plus udon plus desserts. So that could be counting as i'm paying a-la cart. There are other times where I have unlimited amounts of food for free…

I asked.... Does anyone else purposely plan binge eating meals? I have a habit of going to ayce places and binge eating until the point where I can't move or about to puke. I don't feel bad about it after do it like most people. I do this about once or twice a month. Is this considered an unhealthy relationship with food?…

According to web md. I would answer yes to 3 out of 12 of their symptoms. https://www.webmd.com/mental-health/eating-disorders/binge-eating-disorder/do-i-have-a-binge-eating-disorder#1 BED Diagnosis You can be diagnosed with BED if you: Binge regularly -- on average, at least once a week for at least three months. No Eat a…

I was saying some other person with those stats. But that’s ok. The point of the thread was just to see if anyone else plan binge eats not if it was good or bad. I guess the answer is nobody else does it. My takeaway is people don’t think it’s healthy and it will lead to problems. Which may be true, and I’ll keep it in…

Ok let’s say it’s not a diet. If someone tells you they are at 5’8 140 lbs with 14% body fat would you tell them they need to diet or keep doing what they are doing?

I’m not looking for justification. I simply wondered if other people did the same thing. It’s just part of my diet. This is the results of it over past 3 years.

I will definitely look into the diabetes things as I wasn't aware this is something you can develop. I know this habit isn't normal, and I probably do have a unhealthy relationship with food. However my friends hat tell me I shouldn't diet the way I do are also the ones that are struggling to meet their weight goals. But…

I have concluded that if 2000 calories is really not enough for most people if they are trying to eat healthy. Then if you are trying to do a calorie deficit of 500 per day like what a lot of people say, it's practically impossible. So I can totally understand why without exercise, you would be over your calories. I…

I'm not doing OMAD, as I have eating 2 more times since that meal. This is not my normal diet, but it is part of my normal dieting routine that I do. I know it's a lot of food which is why I wonder if other people plan binges like me. You hear people talk about how they lost control or fell of their diet and feel bad. I on…

I'm not trolling. And to be honest, some bakery good right now as we speak before I head off to bed. My diet for the next 6 days will be 5 meals totaling 2200 calories each day. This is what i'll eat tomorrow. Banana, oatmeal, almond milk, tilapia, chicken breast, edamame, black beans, pamelo, broccoli, rice, sweet potato,…

https://www.popsugar.co.uk/fitness/What-Happens-When-You-Binge-Eat-42747063 The summary on one hand says go for it, as long as it's not a "regular" habit. I just don't think i'm losing control as I can get back on a clean diet the next day until my next planned binge.

I initially only got 1 slice of cheese cake and some other cake. After eating it, I decided the cheese cake tasted good so I went back to get 2 more and an ice cream bar. Like I said before, i'm not force feeding my self. I am eating because it taste good, but just the fullness signal hasn't reached my brain. Since my last…

As much as you hate doing boring cardio, I wouldn't recommend doing things like burpees or jump squats or kickboxin. Unless you have already been doing burpees and jump squats on a regular basis, you will more than likely get an injury at some point and derail your weight loss. See…

So I’m back from my meal. Didn’t eat till I couldn’t move but I was pretty full at the time I left. However that might have been because I inhaled 2 slices of cheese cake and ice cream bar in 1 minute because the waiter came over and said time was up. It’s been about 3 hours since my last bite and I feel like I could eat…

To be clear, I am not force feeding my self at these meals. I am simply eating until I feel satisfied. I guess when all the food finally expands in my stomach, that is when I feel like I overdid it.

Wow. Not exactly the response I was expecting. I just saw it as a cheat meal that is almost universally accepted by people as something that everyone will do. I do this with family and friends, so also see it as flexible dieting in some aspects. Eating out is one of the few things I enjoy so is the activity of choice when…

Of course watching video's like this doesn't make me feel like I it's an issue. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WmCAp4vJFkI

For example, tomorrow lunch, I am going to an ayce. I know i am going to eat 10x more food than I should. What I hope don't happen is what happened last time. Last time, when I was done, I literally could not walk and had to sit outside on the sidewalk for 15 minutes.

I'm early 40's. I don't plan on eating until I feel bad physically. It usually just happen because I feel like I can eat another plate or bowl of ice cream. But after eating for 90 minutes to 2 hours straight, it suddenly hits me that I am stuffed, and that last plate was a mistake.

Being able to stick to your diet that is working for you is all that matters. Keep it up.

I'm curious as to why you wouldn't count the calories if your making it at home. There are only a few ingredients and you can weigh it all out before you make it. Save the free meals for when you are not preparing your own food!!! Even when I went out for sushi last weekend for my meal off, I found that counting sushi was…

My experience with weighing foods is that it is far too complex and all just an approximation. I still do it though just to be clear. Just googling some of the basic foods will net you all kinds of different values, so how do you know which one is right? Even all the TDEE numbers an calories burned are all estimates. So…

My recommendation is you track body fat instead of weight. My wife's weight has stayed consistent, but her body fat has been dropping steadily. She has dropped 2% body fat and is closing in on 20%. Currently, it is taking her about 1 week to drop .1% body fat, but her weight may go up and down. But knowing that the weight…

Thanks for the honest reply. I don’t think I’m the best version of my self yet. My goals are to live a long healthy life, but a long healthy life doesn’t require a person to have that elusive 6 pack or defined muscles. While those were never my goals, they happened and all my friends and coworkers are shocked when I show…

Don’t focus on losing weight. Instead focus on losing body fat. Carbs is not the enemy. At the end of the day, it’s calories in vs calories out. How you make it though the month with less calories eaten than you burned is the goal. Day to day or even week to week is not significant when you look at the big picture of this…

I too have found that the lock down made it easier for me to diet. As you stated, the constant pressure of office get together and junk food disappeared. I eat a pretty clean diet and get plenty of protein. I am not a picky eater and don't mind chicken and broccoli and egg white. Other things I eat are things you find on…
