Hello everyone. I'm always looking for a few more good friends.

I was in OA several years ago and while I did not stay for more than a couple years, I found it to be very beneficial for my binge eating. I did not get a sponsor but by attending the meetings, having face to face contact with others who are going through the same thing and reading the literature really helped me. It's…

January 2015: Me: 13 Binge: 1 Such a good day yesterday.

Speaking as a man, I can say I totally care about that and have had those same feelings. But despite that feeling, overall, sex is way better after I lose weight. Of course you are better off in other ways too losing 60 lbs. (congrats by the way). Also there is a lot they can do about that skin surgically too right? In the…

January 2015: Me: 12 Binge: 1 (binged yesterday) Long but same old story. Thanks Pudding, it's an hourly struggle right now.

Hello, please feel free to add me. :smile:

Hope it's ok to join in so late. This is the longest I've been binge free in probably a year. So a cautious "woo hoo". January 2015: Me: 8 Binge: 0

Westland, MI here. Hello everyone!

Yes at the library. The alarm went off so I was busted. Have you ever been to a nude beach?

Hello everyone, check out my profile and feel free to add me. Always looking for a few new friends to encourage and be encouraged by.

Hi everybody, Westland, Michigan here.

Thank you for reaching out, I'm sorry you are going through this. I have known this kind of deep seated pain before, as I'm sure many reading this have. But your last sentence nailed the key to moving on, very beautifully said. It's a great lesson to us, so I thank you.

Today I am not proud of myself for waking up this morning with the desire to stop the bingeing. There I said it. I rely on my feelings or desires to shape my behavior. Like a tree swaying in the wind. I do something healthy or caring for myself only when it pleases me or "makes me proud". When it's difficult, when it…

I do not see avoiding trigger foods as "restricting" or "extreme" behavior. Bingeing is harmful and unhealthy behavior and it should be taken seriously. If I have one of those trigger foods I risk weeks or months of bingeing. I have been bingeing now for 3 weeks straight and I know I need to stop but now that I have…

November 2013 Ed: 16 The Binge: 14 It was mainly the last half of November that was bad. While I'm ready to start over in December, I am cognizant that I have some issues I need to address or this won't stop.

November 2013 Ed: 16 The Binge: 8 Oh the horribleness this weekend. Need help or something.

November 2013 Ed: 15 The Binge: 6 Had a good day yesterday at least. I can go months at a time without a single day binge free, so I'm still doing good.

November 2013 Ed: 14 The Binge: 4 I feel like I am really struggling even though I am bingeing about 1 time a week. Ugh, just feel like giving up, because eating makes me feel so good. Yuck it feels weird to type that but it is just how I feel at the moment.

November 2013 Ed: 11 The Binge: 3

November 2013 Ed: 10 The Binge: 3 The horribleness of yesterday evening's binge kind of scared me (approx. 3,400 calories over). Hopefully scary enough to help me not binge for a very long time. I logged it all, which I've not done before. It's funny, the shame of logging it is another weird incentive not to do it again.

November 2013 Ed: 9 The Binge: 2 Binge free all last week. :) Not sure why though.
