Ugh! Kids can be sooooo horrible. I was ridiculed all throughout elementary and middle school, so I know how bad it can feel. BUT good for you for not caving into binging! :flowerforyou:

Well, I can't say I did great this weekend. I craved sweets and allowed myself to have a couple, but I wouldn't say I had a full blown binge because I was able to control myself and really didn't feel guilty for the sweets that I did have. Hope everyone had a great weekend! As of Aug. 20: Me: 18 Binge: 1

I'm 5'3." My original goal weight was 125lb but now that I'm there, I'm shooting for 120 since I still have a little belly that I don't like. I've also focused more on strength training exercising to see if I can tone my body.

WOW!! You're such an inspiration! You are proof that with faith, patience, and guidance, almost anything can be done. I tip my hat to you to a job well done!

I'm 5'3, plateaued at 125 lbs and upped my calories from 1200 everyday to 1400 on weekdays and up to 1500 on weekends. I started losing after 3 weeks of increasing my cals. I'm sloooowly losing, but I'm losing. I weighed myself Sunday and lost 2.5 lbs. Edited to include that I work-out 5 days a week and recently started…

Happy to have all of you here! I started having issues with binging when I had anorexia a few years ago. I would not eat for days and then have about a day a week and binge, sometimes eating up to 4000 cals a day. Well, I've mostly recovered from anorexia but still have issues with binging. My biggest triggers are boredom,…

Doing better and did not binge this weekend! Me: 12 Binge: 1 (8/4)

I Did It! I was so nervous because I was going to a birthday get together and knew there'd be lots of food and alcohol. I had two drinks (rum and diet coke) and 2 beef kabobs. I ate all the veggies and gave most of the beef to my sis. I guess it helped that the birthday boy is also trying to lose weight, so there was diet…

Had a strong urge to binge yesterday at 8pm. I warmed up three mini vegetable egg rolls in the microwave. Ate HALF OF ONE and threw the rest. I know, I know, I shouldn't be throwing food away but that was the only way I was able to overcome the feeling and it has been really strong lately. I can't figure out why I'm having…

So, so sorry about your job. I wish you all the best in everything you do. I don't know if it'll help, but when you feel like binging maybe you should start writing about your feelings (at the time) whether it be on here or in a journal. It'll keep you busy along with having to take those proactive steps in finding another…

I get the same mindset when I've made a bad choice on foods. Then, I just keep eating and eating. It happens where there is an abundance of food (bbq, buffet, baby showers, festivals). I need to figure out how to have my one plate and STOP eating. I've even thought maybe I shouldn't attend these gathering, but I hate for…

As of 8/7: Me: 5 Binge: 1 (8/4 baby shower and bf's gig. Access to Lots of food & alcohol :/ ) Still mad at myself for binging Saturday. Went over my cal count by 1300 cals........

I schedule my work out at the same time every day...........right after work. I know if I sit down when I get home, I'll never get up to go exercise. You said you think of all kinds of excuses not to go after work. I used to do that, but now I just don't think about it. I just go and after a while, it becomes a habit and a…

Me: 5 Binge: 1 (8/4) .......and I was doing so well. Saturday, I had a baby shower to go to where there was food (nachos), cookies, and cake. I did pretty good there and did not have a bite of cookies and cake, BUT the shower was in the same city as my bf's gig (he plays in a band), so I decided to go see him play where…

I have a bf who constantly grazes and it makes it so hard for me, especially toward the end of the day when I've already met my calorie goal. For me, it's ok to have 1 or 2 bites even if I go over my cal count a little. I rather go over by a little than have a full blown binge where I can go over by 1000-3000 cals. And if…

Logging my binge has helped me tremendously along with these monthly challenges. I was flabbergasted at how many calories I can eat on one binge day, but logging all that helps me (1) to stop because I don't want that number to go up any more and (2) to see what type of foods trigger it. Good luck to all! As of Aug. 2: Me:…

Fantastic! Such a great accomplishment...........Congrats!

I did pretty good in July: Me: 28 Binge: 3 Hadn't binged since 7/15. :) Challenging myself to not binge for the whole month of Aug!

Oh, I love San Antonio! One of my fav. cities to visit but you're right, those Mexican restaurants can get ya. I can gain 3lbs just going to San Antonio for a weekend trip :/ I live about 3 hrs away.............San Angelo, TX :)

Most of my binges occur when there is a large amt of food available (bbqs, restaurants & buffets, baby showers) since I don't keep any, what I call, trigger foods in my home. It happens when I've gone over my calorie amt. for the day. I'm thinking: -well I've gone over, so I might as well keep going -I don't get to eat…

I'm in! :flowerforyou: Starting today: Me: 0 Binge:0 I'm just curious what everyone considers a binge day. For me, it's probably going over my calorie allowance by 1000 cals or more.

San Angelo, TX :drinker:

Me: 26 Binge: 3 I can't say I ate great over the weekend, but I did not lose control and binge eat. I stopped and for me, that is the key......knowing I have that self control to tell myself no more food when I'm not hungry. :)

Nope, according to that 5 weeks projection, I should've surpassed my goal weight months ago. :grumble:

Great Job!
