There is no unhealthy snack type food in our home, as I've struggled with…

  • Another bad month :'( Gemma: 7 Binge: 20 I have lost my ability to control myself lately after such a good run - why is it that I always self-sabotage when I get close to my goal weight - have put on 10kgs in 2 months.
  • July 16th Coming off the back of 4 days of bingeing so in a really bad place atm. Absolutely no logging because I have no idea what I ate if I am honest! But I am feeling more in control today but we will see... Me: 10 binge: 5
  • me: 8 Binge: 1 I don't know how I managed it but I surfed the urge to binge yesterday. I was at my friends and all I could think about was getting home to binge as I was still feeling rubbish from Monday but when I got in I literally wouldn't allow myself get up off the sofa and focused on the football and somehow managed…
  • today I am proud of myself because I seriously wanted to binge yesterday and sat at my friends waiting to go home to binge and I surfed the urge and DIDNT!!!!!!!!! WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOHOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!! lol!! one day at a time :-)

  • me: 3 binge: 0 Although weekends are my downfall so I shall see what this is Monday!!

  • June 30th Me: 20 binge: 10 number of lie days on my dairy 10 Last few days have been horrendous!! :'( Really struggling!!
  • I wish I could try treating myself with kindness but after what I did this weekend I am really struggling with the self-hate cycle. I am going to give it go though and hopefully it will work!! No idea yet what I will do but as I haven't seen or spoken to my boyfriend in two weeks as hes been away I might say screw the…
  • why are you only eating 1000 cals a day? your body needs more fuel to survive than that, particularly if you are working out - eat more and the weight will come off!!
