What kind of treatment, if any, have you guys pursued? And how effective did you find it to be? And for those of you on meds, are you combining it with any kind of therapy?

Great idea or recipe for disaster?
I'm considering taking a break from logging. I feel like if I exceed my calorie goal, which I've continually increased to maintenance, I just end up bingeing because I feel like I've blown it. I wonder if not seeing the numbers would help me. I would continue weighing my food on a scale and writing it in my food journal as…

Anticipatory eating
Am I the only one who does this? When I have a big meal coming up or lunch/dinner plans, I get anxious about it derailing me. I then binge in anticipation of the meal, overeat at the meal, and then binge afterwards. As a result, I try to avoid any kind of social eating but it is inevitable. I'm going to dim sum on Friday…

Sweet tooth
Sorry for all of the postings, but I've been having a hard time lately and this is a welcome distraction. How do you all deal with a sweet tooth?
