Place tp write down your binge without counting the cals
Some days we will binge. During those binges we might be able to log what we binged or.. perhaps we might not log at all due to the feeling of shame when the numbers start to show. So this is a place where you can write down what you binged 'today.' Anything you can remember and in whatever order. Hopefully this will help…

What does being full feel like?
When you have your meals of let's say about 500 calories. Do you feel overstuffed? Like you should probably rest for a bit before doing more activity? I know it depends on the types of food one ate as well. I can't seem to pin point what is the full feeling. Or is full before you feel anything on your stomach walls? I…

My stomach hurts so so much :(
I don't know what to do with the pain I've caused to my stomach. It hurts so much to do anything except for sit here and take careful breaths. The taste in my mouth is god awful too from all the foods. It's day 3 of my binge episode. I've been free of this for about a month or so. Had one smaller one about a week ago and…

So this is a bit of a shocker... life changing information
I did not know one could be bulimic without vomiting... somehow stumbled upon a read about this. After a binge one can have purging behaviour such as vomiting, laxatives, diet pills, fasting or excessive exercise. I knew about the first two but not the latter. I don't know in what form exercise is excessive so can't say…

How you got support to avoid relapsing? BED talk
Wondering if I should open up to a friend about my situation. I finally feel I need the support and help from a friend or someone I can count on. Been struggling with this binge problem for a while now though I've been able to handle it on my own. Been binge free for a month but I've had a relapse twice now and the second…

How much is too much protein?
It says the suggested daily serving is 45 grams - I usually ball park around 100 or 115 grams. Is it bad to consume more protein than recommended daily intake? This is coming naturally from the foods such as meats or eggs I eat and no other sources. Also, this happens to me with sugar intake sometimes as well but not as…

Any alternative suggestions for exercise due to swelling?
Hi everyone, I've been dealing with an allergic reaction from bug bites when I was in the forest this weekend. Swelling around the ankles and calves. I have about 150 bites. Basically, it's day 4 of not walking or activity of any sort. I feel a bit blah from it. Not really that it's a set back but I miss being active and…

Don't know how... just binged 5 dinners
I am not sure how this has happened.. I've been feeling a binge might come on for the last two days.. so the 2nd last day I logged at the end of the day instead of after every meal.. and yesterday I didn't log at all. I knew I didn't go over but I could tell I wanted to binge. It started slightly but I was able to stop.…

Binge free but felt quite a strong trigger tonight
Hi everyone, So tonight, I feel not hungry, I had a good dinner about 1-2 hours ago. Usually when I hit my half mark in losing weight this trigger happens. I don't feel bloated anymore and I have a tendency to miss the comfort of feeling extremely full. There is not much food to choose from which I think is the only thing…

How much does your metabolism burn on its own per day?
I did the calculation posted on the blog here: http://www.livestrong.com/article/502448-how-to-determine-how-many-calories-your-metabolism-burns/ Mine came out to an average of 1350 calories per day. The reason I found interest in this is because I was wondering how much I myself need just to go through my day. And the…

Thought I was working, so I fueled.. now I'm bummed
I was supposed to be working right now for the next 4-5 hours and so I fueled with 3-4 egg whites, a bit of lean pork and half an apple. If I wasn't working for the next bit I wouldn't have had this much food to keep me going.. and I would have made it less rushed, enjoyed my time eating and digesting. Now I just feel full…

New here, unmotivated with life today, worried to slip
Hi everyone, I am new to the community here and I would like to say hello! My question here is, how do you cope with unmotivated, uninspired days? Right now, I am not too excited about anything I used to like. I would probably go running or do some sort of exercise. Seeing as my calves are sore from an unexpected steep…
