Hey Maria :) Hey everyone What motivated me: a combination of a new high on the scale, school stress, isolation due to moving to Europe from Canada (alone), feeling like crap in the winter, and boy problems. I decided that because I couldn't control most of that, I'd finally stop making excuses for not looking after…

Me = 0 B = 2 I just got back from a three-month practicum where I took a break from logging due to a lack of time/resources. Now I'm back home and I have to get back into healthy eating and not binging. I'm hopeful that I can get back to healthy habits again, and I'm okay if the B wins more times that I'd like it to, at…

April 5th: 105.5 kg, down 0.4 kg (as expected, since I've been sick for the last week and haven't been able to hit the gym) April 12th: 105.7 kg, down 0.2 kg <-- whelp, I need to work harder to make school + fitness work together better, so hopefully next week I'll be out of the red and down some. April 19th: [I missed…

Kim: 20 Binge: 3 (April 2, 11, 23) Back from Belgium. Two words: Belgian chocolate. My downfall. UGH I feel like crap now and there's still a lot left, so I'm going to place it far out of sight.

Great job! Thanks for posting this, I just started a C25K program and I too have knee problems that hinder my running, but I'll just remember your progress when I want to throw in the towel :)

Kim: 15 Binge: 2 (April 2, 11) Currently in a 6-day run of good decisions, and was able to resist the last few times I've been out and able to binge. Considering how often my binges were in March and before MFP, I'm going to guess that buying less crap/things I binge on is the key. I do miss having sweets around sometimes,…

I've been in Germany for 6 months now (originally from Canada), and it's been a bit of a challenge so far. There's so many new/unfamiliar veggies and meat cuts here, whereas all my go-tos are considered exotic XD. So right now I have a fairly boring selection of veggies, but I'm hoping things will get better in the summer…

Kim: 9 Binge: 2 (April 2, 11) I must say, 8 days was a pretty good run. Today was just small bad decisions that added up to some sweets binging. I'm still crap when it comes to social situations -- I can hold back the Binge Monster at home, but it's like I ignore my good sense when I'm out with friends (and it's truly…

I don't know if they have an H&M where you are, but they come in super fun colours and the material puts up with a lot of wear. I've had mine for nearly a year, and it has survived workouts as well as a solid month of use while I was backpacking around the continent. I needed the largest size from the normal ladies line,…

If they're good quality, special occasion, or just in good condition, try consignment. Everything that can't be consigned, women's shelter. You can also sell them on ebay if you have the time/patience/ability to ship things.

Kim: 3 Binge: 1 (April 2) Being sick may have made this month easier so far, we'll see!

Kim: 1 The Binge:1 (April 2) UGHHH my hangover is enough to tell me that I drank more than I ought to 've last night, but then logging it and the food I ate after was definitely the key to vowing moderation, especially when I'm already near my calorie limit.

Current Weight: 106 kg Goal Weight for the end of April: 102 kg 4/01/2013: 105.9 Personal goal(s): Figure out a work-out/eating/school balance now that my semester break is over Thanks for making the challenge (and for making the google spreadsheet) :)

Kim - 25 Binge - 5 (13th, 14th, 24th, 26th, 30th) Two of those days happened while I was on vacation in England, so I'm willing to forgive myself for that. Also, the 24th was my birthday so what the hell. Today was mostly due to being sick and having candy in the house. A devastating combination. Tomorrow is a holiday and…

SW: 111 kg CW: 105.9 kg GW for April: 102 kg (~ 8lbs to lose) UGW: 75 kg How I plan on doing it: Keep up with exercising and eating healthy. My semester break is over so I have to figure out how to make things work all together. Hence the relatively meager goal.

I'm a late night eater, self-sleep deprivator as well, and I'd never thought of using MFP to track my sleep. I'll give it a go :)

Kim - 16 Binge - 2 (13th, 14th) Some close calls over the past few days, but luckily I either ran out of binge items, or was able to control it.

Found a deserted town in northern Germany that seems to have emptied before the outbreak spread there. Been here for about a week. Sticking to my bike to get around for the most part (2.4 hrs), I had to leave it behind for reconnaissance into rougher terrain to avoid puncturing the tires (1.6 hrs on elliptical). Ransacked…

Kim: 13 The Binge: 2 (13th, 14th) Today went much better, partially because I received "Hungry" by Allen Zapoff in the post and it really helped me put my problem into perspective. :) thanks for the support the last couple of days

I have to make a list before I go, both to plan out my week of groceries and meals accordingly, and so that I save money and avoid impulse buys. I try to go for groceries after a meal so that I'm not shopping hungry, either. I also write the list in the order that I go through the grocery store. That may seem weird, but…

Thankfully, peanut butter and nutella haven't every been a binge food for me, so I'm still able to have both in the house. Instead I tend to avoid buying: - white bread - chocolate - pastries - cake - granola bars - chips - anything fried, really - yogurt - whipping cream - pudding - pie filling - icing The last two are…

Kim: 12 The Binge: 2 13th, 14th My old binge habit is rearing it's ugly head after some solid work for the last two weeks. I thought that yesterday was just a blip, but I binged yet again this evening. Because I've been able to log it, and looking back on my old habits, this isn't a total loss though. I've been able to…

Challenge accepted.

Hey all. I'm relatively new to the group and MFP in general, and I hadn't posted my binge score yet because I thought I may have been able to control it, but I was wrong :( Kim: 12 The Binge: 1 (today) Today just started on the wrong foot food/calorie wise. I went to breakfast at a restaurant for a friend's birthday, and…

Alas, blocked in Germany re: music content :\

Also sent a FR. I'm 23 (24 in two weeks!), just started out here as well, and I have to agree with Ramberta re: your profile pic :)
