binginggg..

hey, im about 5'1'' and i weigh 105, i recently lost ten pounds but havent been able to lose anymore. i lost the ten pounds about two months ago and havent lost any since. i did soo well on my south beach diet for about a month and a half and just recently ive had random binge days, where i intake more than 2000 calories. my average calorie intake should be 1600 approx. but i change it up accordingly. if i binge one day the next i barely eat to make up for it and exercise as well.. buttt ive been having these binge days more and more often then id like. this week i binged on saturday and i binged last night before bed after a longg dress rehersal for my dance recital on saturday. i have to stop binging i promised myselff that i wouldnt anymore and there i went binging again last nightt. i really need some motivation, do you think ill start gaining weight from this continuous binging. and today i had a half of a calzone and a slice of pizza, the sit says that it equals out to around 500 cal. but i honestly think it is more, does anyone have any idea on how many calories that is and what are some suggestions for dinner?! id really appreciate the helppp!!!!! thankss again..

you are hungrier because you arent eating right...(just my opinion)..

you should look at the last post here...  5'1 and 105... you are already underweight...

my usual meal plan is an egg for breakfast, a salad for lunch maybe an apple with peanut butter, nuts or a yogurt for a snack and for dinner, grilled chicken or steak with beans, and brocolli i change it up everynight. i usually dont eat just pizza and calzones!!!

I used to weigh about 130 pounds and then lost alot , and went down to about 111 pounds I was very happy. I ate right eating 3 meals a day and exercising. Then recently in the last few months I started binging late at  nights with peanut butter! I am up to 117 now maybe 120 I am not for sure but I feel miseralbe! I find myself binging close to every other day with the peanut butter. I understand peanut butter is good for you. Well the natural kinds are best. And if you eat it in moderation then it won't hurt you, but how do I stop this binging and learn how to keep my hand out of the peanut butter jar?

id like to know the sameee thinggg..its almost every other day now that i binge on almostt everythinggg in sightt, at least youve restricted yourself to the peanut butter. we need to find a way to fight those cravings... i knew how for so long but now that ive started to binge, i cant stop!! its awful and i feel miserable too, tell yourself that you just can't you cantt! maybe try to eat more during the day so you dont have cravings at night, or maybe try limiting yourself to two tablespoons of peanut butter during the day so that you have a chance to burn it off... goood luckk!!!! you can do itt!

I have the same problem. Every time I start doing really well with my diet and exercise I find myself binging a lot. What kind of works for me is trying to figure out the reasons behind my binges. If you can find out why you do you may be able to stop. The worst times for me are when I am home alone and bored. I just try to keep busy with other things and projects, that helps a lot butttt... I think binging is very mental and sometimes it just gets the best of you.

Ok. This binging is getting really annoying. I feel like I have no self control like eating is always on my mind. Counting calories but then binging. I don't understand I think it is very mental. But I've been doing some research and I think I might have Obsesive compulsive eating disorder. I would have never thought that since I usually eat healthy, but since its summer lately I've been eating one hour and then going for something the next hour even if I'm not even hungry,and the thing that worries me the most is I can't tell when I am hugry or not. I hate this so much! I just went on a huge binge a few minutes ago and it was not good. If I keep this up I am going to be right back up to weighing 130 pounds and depressed. I need help.

guys seriously...5ft and 105 UNDERWIEGHT! The hard truth about all of your posts is that you are starving yes STARVING your internal organs and so you bodys e is to natural responce is to get food...Living off that few calories will harm you at the weight you are. If you just invest some time into looking up how to eat properly balanced diet EVERYDAY then you will probably lose weight and not starve yourself and binge on things which are instant fixes.

Carbo loading (pizza etc) instantly satisfys you but long term wont fill you up..im not saint either but when ever  I eat a balanced FRESH no processed food diet taking time to cook my evening meal and lunch enjoying the whole meal time process I feel a thousand times better.

Please try and get out of the binge cycle, i know its hard im struggling too but try!

All I can say is that I used to do the same thing, and it was very hard to break the cycle.  I would go 1 day eating the bare minimum, then the next, not be able to stick with 1200 cals and end up having a massive all day binge.  I wanted to up my daily calorie intake, but was scared to because I figured I would still binge anyway.  But upping my daily intake is what ultimately stopped the binge cycles.  Make sure you are eating enough, and if you aren't, up the calories.  You may not immediately be able to stop the binging, but it DOES get easier.  At least, it did for me.  Hope this helps!
