I'm a 41 year old mother of 4 who struggles with binge eating, consistency my food plan and the " All or Nothing " thinking when I mess up. Evenings when my family is home and weekends are hard for me to eat well. I wanted to have some accountability here as well as learn from others. I have 12 pounds I'd like to lose by…

SW 132.2 CW 131.4 CGW 120 UGW 117 I hope it's ok if I join. I don't have 20 pounds to lose (about 12) but I need some accountability. I have been losing the same few pounds and gaining then back plus a little more for a long time now. So tired of the yo-yoing. I just wanted some accountability and support . I figured the…

You are truly an inspiration! Thank you for sharing your story and giving others hope and the drive to keep going! I loved reading the entries on your blog. Lots of wonderful advice and things to remember and do along this journey! Keep it up!

You look GREAT! Thanks for the post. I am also short and I get discouraged really easy. Your story and photos remind me that all the exercise and eating right will pay off and my body can change if I am patient and consistent. Now am I off to do the 30DS I have been putting off all morning!

150 days! Thanks for sharing and giving others, like me, more motivation!

It was good for me to find out it was actually an eating disorder and not just me having a lack of willpower. I felt like such a failure after each new diet would fail and I'd start over again and again. Now that I know it goes much deeper I can work on understanding myself more, why I give in to food and what I need to do…

Going camping after lunch today until Saturday afternoon. My only goals for the next few days are: 1. Eat as healthy as I can 2. No sugar (from lots of experience, even one bite does me in. Just have to stay away.) I'm taking some Kashi granola bars and yogurt to eat when I get a sweet tooth. 3. No bingeing Wanted to start…

You are on the right track. I think that is the best way to approach it, one day at a time. Sometimes one hour or minute at a time!

So happy for you! Unfortunately my weekend was not good. I am having to pick myself up, dust myself off, throw all the negative thoughts out the window and make today a success. I don't know why I do this to myself. It is so frustrating!

Today is 11 days binge free for me. That hasn't happened in quite a while. I am just taking it one day at a time. I knew today was going to be a struggle when I wanted to eat my trigger foods first thing in the morning. I was able to stay in control by reminding myself how good abstinence feels. Each day I am binge free…

Yesterday was a good day! Today's goals are: 1. Stay within my calories 2. Keep my thoughts focused on the big picture - Each day I eat well, I get closer to my goal. One day at a time. 3. Work on to-do list and be as productive as I can. 4. Don't be so stressed or busy that I don't ENJOY TODAY!

Met all of yesterday's goals. It feels so good to wake up in the morning knowing yesterday was a good day of eating. It gives me more confidence that I can do it again today. Today's goals: Run at 5:20 am - DONE! Stay within my calories No bingeing or trigger foods

Yesterday's goal of getting to bed by 10pm didn't happen:( Went over on my calories slightly but not too bad:) Didn't binge:) Today's goals are: Stay within my calories Drink more water (I usually do good, but going to try to increase it even more.) No Bingeing

Accomplished my goals for today! Ended up doing a long run of 11.87 miles! I am proud of myself! Tomorrows goals: Stay within calories No bingeing Get to bed by 10pm

Accomplished all three of my goals! As long as I don't eat anything else tonight! Tomorrow's goals are: Stay within my calores Long Run in the morning No bingeing!

I feel like it is a total Jekel and Hyde thing!

Your story is my story! I too have had to cut out certain foods because if I eat them, I eat a lot and then go for anything else I can find. Usually it starts with something sweet. Then I have to have something salty. Back to sweet, back to salty....... I am having to take take it day by day. "I can abstain from my trigger…

Thank you for this post. I too am a food addict. I loved the last 2 sentences. They gave me hope and encouragement.

Met & exceeded all my goals today: Had 229 calories left over, exercised 40 minutes over my goal and chased away the negative thoughts about myself. Goals for tomorrow are: Exercise at least 30 minutes Stay within my calories No binge eating

My story... I started binge eating April 22nd 2007. Physically, I was in the best shape of my life. I had run my first marathon the day before. It was on my mom's b-day, who passed away in 12/02. We were very close, as I was the only daughter, 1 other brother living and my mom was divorced. I've decided that running the…

Everything thats been posted, I too have thought.

I struggle with binge eating. I'll lose a few pounds and then have a bad day of eating. Sometimes those bad days turn into 2 or 3 or 4 days and then I put the pounds I lost back on, plus a few more. I can't seem to go more than 10 days before the cycle starts all over again. I would love to have a month of binge free…

I too am trying every day. Some are easier than others but it is still such a struggle.
