Pudding - Even if you had a few bad days, all your efforts are not undone and nothing is ruined. Forgive yourself and know that you can do this. October 2014 Me: 18 The Binge: 1

toadqueen - Welcome and congrats to you for fighting the urge to binge on a trigger food. :smile: Our brains learn to associate certain foods with binging, and those are some tough patterns to break! Today I am proud that I participated in a 10k race for the first time and finished it under my goal time. I did not put that…

You're absolutely right. I need to lay off the scale for a while. It does me no good these days, and in the end we all know that a number doesn't dictate whether we're worthy or not.

Me: 15 The Binge: 1 Pudding - Congrats! I think there comes a point when a binge can truly be a learning experience. You learn that you can control the urge, and that in the end you feel so much better when you don't listen to that voice. Weight is only one facet of it. Like you, I feel that I am a better person to be…

Me: 14 The Binge: 1 Fantastic! :)

Crepes - Congrats on your four day streak! You can do it :smile: Lift4Tats - After a binge, it takes tremendous strength to fight the urge the next day. You managed to do just that, way to go! Dennis - I like what you said here: "the binge did not control me". That's really something! As for me, I would say simply say that…

October 14 Me: 13 The Binge: 0 Still no binge so far this month. For the past week or so I've been eating at maintenance level. Not so much because I want to, but because I can't seem to stick to a deficit.

Marathon training is so impressive to me! My first ever official race, a 10k, is two weeks from now. I ran 8.4k this morning. That's only 5.2 miles and it still felt kind of long! lol Way to go on the no snacking at night, that's the toughest part of the day indeed! shortly2Bthin - Good for you, stoping after your dessert.…

Dennis and Crepes - I've also used that method! Actually, I even bought a little gadget a couple months ago called the "Kitchen Safe" that takes it to another level... haha. It's a box with a lock and a timer on it, so if I feel vulnerable, but still think clearly enough, I'll put certain food items or my credit and debit…

Last day of September was a struggle, but no binge! The final score: Me: 28 The Binge: 2

WillLift4Tats - I know all too well about that guilt the day following a binge. I am actually going through it today. I binged yesterday after a fairly long binge-free streak. Like you, it wasn't the worst I've had, but it's still hard. Hang in there! Dennis - First of all, congrats on your wedding anniversary! 26 years..…

Didn't make it through today. September 2014 Me: 26 The Binge: 2

Thank you guys :) I struggled quite a bit yesterday but managed to avoid a binge. Me: 24 The Binge: 1

September 25 Me: 23 The Binge: 1 This month has been going well so far. Only one binge in over three weeks is a gigantic improvement over the way things have been in the past. I feel really vulnerable today, though. My relationship of nearly 10 years is going through a very difficult patch and I don't know if we'll pull…
