I didn't read all the comments, so I'm not sure if this has been suggested...but Jessica Seinfeld (Jerry's wife) has a book called Deceptively Delicious, Simple Secrets to Get Your Kids Eating Good Food. Her black bean brownies are very good. Do you like salsa? There are many different types of salsa out there. They taste…

I agree. I don't classify a binge as a little of my calories. A binge to me is going ape crap crazy and eating everything. It's a complete loss of control and an "eff it" attitude. Sometimes I cry during it because I can't stop. I hate it. I'm embarassed. It usually adds up to around 3k over my daily allowance. Sometimes…

April 10 Me: 8 Binge: 2 (4/4; 4/6) Last night was hard. My daughter's ballet class ran long and when I got home I was starving. Trying to help my husband made me a trigger food, which I ate. I tried to eat really slowly but whatever chemical is in that stupid food just made me think of all the other stuff we had. Usually,…

April 9 Me: 7 Binge: 2 (4/4; 4/6) feeling strong. I upped my calories a bit. Not enough to go crazy, just no crazy calorie control. Trying to find a balance.

April 8 Me: 6 Binge: 2 (4/4; 4/6) hopeful...

...I'm curious - How does everyone classify a binge to themselves? I guess it's fairly subjective :) My feelings before a binge are awful. It's like I can't sit still. I want the people around me to leave so I can eat, eat, eat. I have never binged in front of anyone. Usually if my famiy is home, I sneak into the kitchen…

Me: 5 Binge: 2 (4/4; 4/6) Feeling stronger. I logged my gain for the week. I will do better.

Me: 4 Binge: 2 (4/1, 4/6) Last night I had a good talk with my husband. I confessed all the sneak eating I was doing. We bought a dozen cookies from the cookie company and my kids and husband each had one and I had the other 7.

me: 4 Binge: 1 (4/4) I feel like another binge wants to come out and I have been thinking about food constantly. Trying to tame it and hoping to get stronger. I am bigger than this.

I hope it's not too late to join. I need this. I am really struggling and need to be accountable. I feel lost. Me: 3 Binge: 1 (4/4)

Thank you for all the input, I so appreciate it. I am still learning about what I should be doing. I guess as simplistic as this sounds, my goal is to continue to make wiser choices with my food and not just look at calories only but at the overall scheme of what I am eating. I am about 10 lbs away from really feeling like…

I get my cardio at the gym during my lunch breaks from work. I do get outside on the weekends, but at the gym I can workout and shower and life is good. Everyone is different and at least we're all doing something. That's what counts.

Thanks. These are great ideas. If I got in my mindset to watch what I eat, I can for sure get in my mindset to make better, more natural choices w/o all the sodium (I hope!).

I have 4 kids. It's hard! I feel your pain! I live your pain - lol! Do what you can do. Concentrate on your diet now and then one you have that mastered, figure out a way to incorporate fitness. I know you know this, but as the baby grows, you'll have more time to exercise. Give yourself a break. It's hard being a new mom.…
