I just wrote this for myself. It might help other bingers if you want to read it.

 

Note to Self before bingeing:

 

Hey, before you start shoveling food in your mouth, STOP AND THINK.

Its not worth it. The temporary happiness of the food you won’t even taste because youre eating so fast. But permanent happiness will be when you can wear what you want and look good in it. When its 90 degrees outside and youre not embarrassed to wear those shorts. When you can wear that bikini you bought last year but never wore because you were gaining weight. THIN FEELS BETTER THAN FEELING COMPLETELY STUFFED TO THE MAX AFTER BINGEING. I would rather be starving than what I feel right now. Full, sick, like throwing up, heart beating fast, not able to move because Im so full. I will probly end up napping because that’s what happens after I binge. I get tired and sleep. SUCH A WASTE OF TIME. I get so much more done when I don’t binge.

Things to do:

Homework, clean room, dance, learn dances, computer, games, ddr, crochet, knit, watch movie, watch tv, laundry, stretch, read, Clay, draw, color, music, flute, go to gym, walk, run, nap, talk online, text, trampoline, drink water, chew ice, latch hook, hackysack, rollerblade, guitar hero, splits, scorpions, back walkover, basketball, piano, look at photo albums, watch home movies, gameboy, pogo stick, pilates, bike, paint nails, wash face, think, write, journal, puzzle, take a bath, walk patches, volleyball, dishes, dust, vaccuum, chew gum, plan, shop, drive

Think about how you will feel after the binge:

Guilty, full, craving more food, headache, feel sick, tired, FAT---a whole day ruined, and maybe even the next, just because you had to binge

Think about things to motivate you not to binge:

Being thin and happy with my body

Having clothes to wear that fit me and look good

Be able to have a wardrobe of nice clothes and style

Bikini body

Thighs not rubbing together, no camel toe

College

Summer-shorts, tank tops, hot, swimming, vacation

BEAT MY COUSIN WHO IS DOING WEIGHT WATCHERS

Fit into my dance costumes

Move on with my life

Not sweat a lot when I exercise

Prom dress

Improve on dance and flexibility

Clear up acne on face

Having my eating under control

I'm on day 7 of no bingeing!! That is a whole week :D  One more week and i will break my record of 11 days!! During this week though, i have gotten the urge to binge, but i fought it!! And it is so much more rewarding knowing you stopped the binge rather than giving into it and feeling guilty.

Good luck to everyone :D We can do this!!

Original Post by windexburnsmyeye:

I don't have any huge "death" stories... but I'll usually carry a bottle of water with me everywhere so if I get the urge to eat, I'll just pour water on the food and destroy it. It really works, but when you do it in public people tend to look at you weird...

 thats a good idea. i might just have to try that

I binged today and now I feel completely sick, my stomach is as stretched out as it has ever been, I feel like throwing up, my heart is pounding, and I feel like I am going to die. I just don't get why I keep putting myself through this. I keep making the same mistake over and over again. Half of the stuff I eat during my binges, I don't even want. I just eat them for the sake of eating them, and I can't stop. Ughhhhh Never again, hopefully, but I always say that then BAM it happens again. I don't even care about my weight anymore, I just want to be healthy again.

those are some good tips. thank you. I will take that into consideration. Definately gonna be drinking lots of water from now on. And i'm gonna find some new things to do to keep me occupied. Maybe go to the bookstore and get a few books to read, get some crafts, and once the weather is nicer, i'll go outside more often.

because i cannot forgive myself for previous binges,

boredom,

i love food, it makes me happy, but then it makes me sick and guilty too,

i restrict to make up for it, but binge again,

i lose selfcontrol over my life and over food,

i am not happy with my body, i am putting myself further away from my goal,

i am semi-depressed at the moment
