What can we do to help you succeed?
I want to know what as a group can we do to help each other succeed? What do you feel like you would need to be successful, taking it one day at a time? What sort of things help you to avoid a binge? No fear, no judgements, no shame. Put it out there for the group, you never know what you will get in return. Please no…

Introductions
Hi my name is Mike and I am a Binge Eater. Until recently I did not know there was a term for it I just thought I really like to eat sweets and chips with reckless abandon. The bad part to this is I am a Chef and a fairly good one and I am also a talented baker of pasties as well. So you see I have the knowledge and…

Sorry Venting
Ok, my wife's grandmother lives next door to us, she has a dog, we have a dog and for years we have shared an invisible fence. 3 or 4 years ago we put up a wooden fence for the kids but since we do not have direct access to our back yard from the house we use the invisible fence to just let the dogs out and they are…

Logging Question
I really need to get better about logging my food daily. When I am at work I can log from my computer, then when I get home with the kids I just forget, and by the time bedtime rolls around I just want to relax and unwind. Maybe I should log my snacks and dinner the next day? Does anyone else log their food the next day?

Family vacation
My family is 14 days away from our vacation to Disney. I am starting to get nervous about the amount of stress and availability of foods I will have access to. I have been really trying to do good with my eating and when we booked the trip we bought the dining plan and that was before I was diagnosed with BED. So there is…

It's Friday
How is everyone's Friday starting off? Mine is a whirlwind of crazy. I had my cook call off, so I have to fill in for her, I have to make a homemade meat sauce for 1500 kids, and make a catered boxed lunch for 75 people. On top of the normal things I have to do on a Friday, like place the food orders from my vendors for 10…

Voluntary Bumble Bee Tuna Recall
Here is the link I received with the information. So far no health risks have come from these, it looks like an outside plant had an issue with the commercial sterilization process. http://www.fda.gov/Safety/Recalls/ucm491107.htm

Ewww
If you ever need a sure fire way to stop a binge clean out a front loading washing machine tray that ha not been removed in about a year. Needless to say I don't have to worry about a binge as I will never be eating again. Lol

Binge Eating Disorder in Men
I have been looking and have really not found many materials from a man's perspective and dealing with this disorder. So I did something kind of scary and I wrote a little about my journey in a blog post. Since I feel that if more men see that they are not alone in this that maybe it will help them to get treatment. I just…

This was the picture that became my wake up call.
I believe I have referenced a picture my wife sent me, this is it. The picture of me in the black shirt was before my daughter was born. The picture of me in the green lantern shirt is from a year ago. My wife sent this to me, and it was the first time I realized that something was not right, and I had not really noticed…

Check in
Hello so since being diagnosed with binge eating disorder I was given Vyvanse (it is dual purposes for me as an ADD and BED med). Since taking this is for the first time in years I feel fully in control of my eating. I no longer have the overwhelming sugar cravings I once had. I have reduced the amount I eat on a daily…

Happy Wednesday
Good morning one and all. Sorry if I post too much but this is the first group I have ever created, and with that it makes me feel more personally responsible, and makes me want to see each and every member succeed. But I have a feeling if people keep joining I may be adding leaders to the group as well. If this is…

Recipes
Hi all, I am not sure if you know this but I am a professional, trained chef and have been working in the industry for over 15 years at this point in my life. I know many people get flustered with menu planning, recipes, or just get burned out eating the same things all the time. I am offering my help to those who need it.…

Day 3
So day one was a snap, then by day 2 I wanted to eat my desk, my family, I had a splitting headache, and was starving. So far today seems to be better. I am doing my shakes back to back so I can eat a real meal with my wife and kids. How many calories is your snack supposed to be? I wonder if that is doing it.
