People think that because Ive lost a significant amount of weight that I dont struggle with eating anymore. But I DO! Goes to show that sometimes it more than whats on the outside!

=( poor tea cup!!

This can totally be our over eaters annoymous! My name is Vanilliabeanseed.. and I am a over eater (at times) lol

I actually had something on the weekend that was TOOOO rich for me!? Thats nearly impossible! haha I made homemade peanut butter rocky road squares, and they were just too rich! WOO! haha

This sounds like an excellent idea! I too sometimes restrict foods, and then when I do eat them... I let the whole day go to ****.

Personally I dont think an extra piece of cake is a binge. It probably brought you over your weight loss calories, but not your maintenance cals. So at least you shouldnt be gaining! =) Ps. cake rocks! LMAO

So last night was my party! Lots of booze,food,and laughs. My friend even surprised me with a birthday cake! And now all the excitement of October is over.. Today the cake was still calling my name, and I had a slice (counted it into my daily cals) My boyfriend got take out (I ate a few pieces of his left overs, no biggie)…

For me, I hope this No Binge November, kick starts, no binge dec, jan, deb,mar.. etc For me anyway! =)

First - I hope that steak was amazing! ;) And I agree that when you finally get to spend some time with a loved one.. it can often lead to FOOD! Join us and we'll all help each other stay on track in November!

Ive notice that when I over eat, it happens to be on days when Im getting little water intake. Perhaps I am confusing hunger with thirst?

Sometimes during a binge.. I dont even like what Im eating. but I keep eating it.. whats with that? LOL

Thats it! I totally believe in moderation. Enjoy a treat, just dont let it go to far! =)

Very true! Sometimes the urge hits, and I cant concentrate on anything else. I cant sit down and just be.. I have to eat.. its a terrible feeling.

Today is my birthday bash! I will be having treats and sugary alcoholic beverages with my friends! This will be my last hoorah before no binge november. I have made peanut butter rocky road squares for tonight, I have chips, oreos, lemon merigue vodka, and probably other treats along the way! Life is about having fun. And…

Ps, my food diary is always public for people to look at!

Thanks for the add! Just accepted!

Created the offical group today. Tried to add most of you (although some of your names are cut off) please click the link if you did not get an invite! https://www.myfitnesspal.com/forums/show/51691-no-binge-november If you find us half way through November, feel free to still join in the motivation and support!

What ever a binge is to YOU! And I agree, over our personal maintenance calories is a good definition!

A treat meal a week is great!As long as it doesnt turn into a treat DAY! And happy to have you on board!

Haha no problem!! Me and Joey went out for dinner and I had an awesome piece of cake. It was called chocolate explosion!!

I prefer not to make it private, as I want people to be able to join in at any point. But we can still check in everyday and offer support! Thats exactly what I want! Support and accountability! =)

Loving all the responses!! Tomorrow is my birthday bash, this will be my last hoorah before no binge november! I will be having people over for some snacks and drinks - no guilt. Then we all join together and make november our no binge month! But! I do agree with an above post that if we DO slip, we should post it here.…

Thanks! Hard work and dedication!

HEY!! Im at work too! Been here since 5:45am! Whats uppppppppp?

WOO!! But dont be afraid of fruit sugar and healthy fats!

Tea with sweetener! 0 cals and feels like I'm 'eating'. Also flavoured water! Other than that I take low cal snacks to have throughout the day: apples rice cakes yogurt watermelon (LOTS OF WATERMELON!)

For the most part I eat to get full. I get as many low cal options on my plate as possible. Usually tons of veggies, that way I feel like Im eating alot but not eating crap! I generally hate eating something small that is really calorie dense. Just doesnt satisfy me!

Im on a very low budget when it comes to our food. There is just me and my boyfriend and I go shopping once a week and get $60 dollars worth of groceries. Sometimes Ill have a little extra money and throw that in too! I shop all the sales and make sure I get the best bang for my buck! =)

best thing for home made meals at the relatives is to watch portions sizes and estimate calories by looking for similar items in the database! Join us anyway to keep track of how many days you are binging!

HAHA my number one reason for you.. ITS COLD OUTSIDE AND ICE CREAM WILL MAKE YOU COLDER! hahaha Im always so cold!
