binging

okay so i have been binging all night tonight and feeling really really bad and guilty about it, which has in turn made me eat more ...

i stopped now and switched to tea, but can you guys make me feel like i'm not alone here? i know this is a bit of a selfish thread but i'm feeling really down! 

thank you xx

It's normal to lose your cool from time to time. Heck it was my b-day last week and I went stir crazy with the b-day cake. As hard as it may seem, you can get over this episode. Just put it behind you and have a healthy day tomorrow.

Yes I felt like total crap after I ate all that cake, but I just had to put it behind me as that was pretty much all that could be done.

 

 

I know how you feel. I am a binger too. I have been snacking on quaker cheese quakes and ate way too many and feel bad about it. Veggies don't always do the trick.

Binging is a terrible habit and you are not alone. I struggle with it every day and I exercise just about daily to compensate. I am still about 15 lbs heavier than I would like to be because of it. I am not considered overweight, but pretty darn close! I am a yo-yo dieter as well. I have been heavy and I have been thin...it is always a battle.

Hang in there!

Nice to know im not the only one =)

i did exactly the samee!! i always do it cos i get bored and im not sure what else to do so i eat :|

Nope not the only one out there. I felt awful for going slightly over last night (I've been too far under my goals this week so I didn't stress too much) but it set me up for a really bad day today. I'm WAY over today and I'm angry but I know we all just have to just let that part go. Otherwise it's right back to where today started.

Easier said then done, of course but I guess that's why we're all here....support.

Tomorrow I'm going to do my best to start off right and see if I can break the cycle before I'm playing damage control getting back under on weight. I know I can correct this slip and just find ways to avoid doing this so much in the future.

Hang in there everyone. We'll all get through.

one night of many days of healthy eating is okay, don't think too much about it because it'll just make you feel worse and want to eat more, throw that mentality away; it's dangerous.

when it becomes a regular habit that's when you really need help.  do you know what  started it? why you started it?

YOU ARE DEFINATELY NOT ALONE!!

Heres a bingeing forum I created, which has tons of support and interesting links/info for bingeing.

Remember tomorrow is a new day!!!! We're all here to support you!

forgot to post the link lol..

After a day that included lots of exercise and nutritious eating, I just ate a ton of strawberry ice cream, a huge brownie and 2 sugar cookies.  Big ones.  I think it's the onset of Fall.  All I want to do is eat high fat high sugar.  Ugh!

I go through PHASES of this.  

I have no advice, but I've been telling myself that I'm not a bad person.  I brushed my teeth when I wanted to go back to the freezer for more ice cream! I brushed them really thoroughly, too, with flossing and everything.  I think that's the end of my junk food blitzkrieg! For tonight, anyway...

 

aww thank you guys i feel so much better aleady! and thank you for the thread posting, loseweight!

 

helpless, i never buy sweets or cakes but my mum had sent some things over and i knew they were in my cupboard...i guess i was just curious to try it more than anything else! and then because i watching tv it just became 'a thing to do'

I have been binging as well. I either eat in my car or sneak it in my purse up to my room. And I tell myself not to do it yet keep putting it into my mouth. I don't carry my debit card with me anymore so I can't make a pit stop before I go home and load up on crap. So you are not alone and we can defeat this.

of course curiosity kills the cat.  that always does it for me.  i look at a food and wanting to try and to know what it taste like i go for the kill and get hurt instead.  it might be best to just keep those foods you're likely to  binge on away from you dorm/apt.
