I believe I drank about 2 gallons today. It was hot and sticky out here.

I have not read any posts in this new thread yet... I just can't. I have been on a massive binging spree for the past 2 weeks or so, have stopped logging, and in all honesty, gained 11 solid pounds. Yes, I overate THAT much in the past 2 weeks. Stuffed myself to the breaking point everyday.... I don't know what set me off.…

Wow, The first thing to cross my mind is that I like nothing about myself. I feel fat, legs too thick, eyes too small, yada yada yada.... I've been sitting behind the screen for a few moments just trying to think about what I like about myself. I just can't think of one single thing. Hmm, I guess I really like my arms…

Has anyone heard of this program or tried it? I like the idea of skyping with counselors http://www.hungryheart.org/user.php?frm=prod_detail&pg=&cat_id=24&pro_id=19

Awesome! I need to bookmark that one

Do you ever feel like if you could just make it to your goal weight you would stop binging? I have this idea that once I reach goal weight my life will be perfect, and the urge to binge will evaporate. Probably not gonna happen. I am in my last 10 lbs of weight loss, but every time I lose a few lbs, I sabotage myself and…

Sounds like we are in the same boat on this one. If I don't pack or plan meals, then oh boy. It's the curtains for me. I struggle with the emotional part too. If something good happens, I eat. If something bad happens, I eat. It's almost as if emotions are uncomfortable and food distracts from feeling. One of the members…

Well, I blew it. The worst part is I knew it was gonna happen. This morning I left the house knowing I wouldn't have access to food all day. It actually caused a morning binge until I was forced to leave. As soon as I got home I fell snout first into a binge, and then my boyfriend ordered pizza. I felt helpless to my…

Hey guys!! I don't know how you all feel about posting links in the thread, but here's one I really want to share. It breaks down the reasons behind our cravings. For example, my weakness is CRUNCHY!!! If I start eating crunchy foods I'll usually have an all out binge. Sugar also sets me off like a gun, I can't stop at one…

Thanks everyone for the great posts! You are all so encouraging to me. Just knowing you guys/girls are out there is SO Helpful. I've said it before, but it's true. So here is my story for today. It was my mother's birthday, so I brought a cake over. I told myself I wouldn't eat any. Then of course I ate almost my entire…

How has everyone been doing these past few days? I did not so well. I baked some cookies for my boyfriend. I ate half the batch, then I mechanically moved to the chips, then the ice cream bars, then the cheese and crackers. I am proud of stopping myself before it became extremely painful. Actually, my tummy doesn't really…

My name is Kaila, I'm in induction (atkins) I have been on induction before and had great success, but I gave myself some birthday cake and completely fell off the wagon for about a month.

I'm fighting off a binge right now. I will admit that I did already give in somewhat. It's amazing how much calmer I'm feeling by just being on here and typing out this post. Today I was hit with a triple-binge-inducing whammy. Number 1, not eating for almost 5 hours (which always causes me to go crazy at night) and number…

Do you guys ever find that a binge can just keep going for a few days? I seem to do that very frequently :(

Oh my goodness.... I never thought I would find another person who felt this way. It's like my brain doesn't know how to handle emotions of any sort. When I get good news, or feel great, I eat. When I feel bad or lonely, I EAT!!!

Hi guys, my name is Kaila and I just joined the group. I'm excited to find a "live" group of people to share this with. I've been living with this since high school, but I can actually trace my first real big binge to a few months after my husband died. I was miserable and went to Walmart for 2 boxes of cookies. I…

[/quote] "bread(carbs) will cause some water weight. it's natural part of bodily function. The more carbs you eat the more water you'll retain. i beleive it's something around 3 parts of water retained for every part of carb. Not sure of the exact amounts off top of my head. I wouldn't worry about it. 2 slices is not a…
