But I do think everybody binges every now - and I think before I cared about foods/etc I didn't even consider stuff like this a binge.

Like i feel like when I was at my highest weight, I just ate ALOT and didn't care at all if I finished that box of cereal or not. I didn't consider it a binge. (which led to crazy weight gain but) and that's not because I wasn't getting enough nutrients from my normal foods or from me depriving myself.

It's only when you start to count calories/care about what goes into your mouth that you consider it a binge.

But anyhow, if you want to stop binging, stop buying junk food around in your house and if you want something sweet, get it in small packages from like the vending machine. Keep healthy snacks around the house like fruits/veggies because even if you do binge on carrots for example, you wont feel bad at all. actually you'll feel pretty damn proud of yourself for eating that many carrots instead of cookies

Man I had that feeling today due to writing a paper for like 12+ hours... and a horrible week. It only lasted for like 10 minutes though and I had no food to binge on exactly... I ate a serving of strawberries and peaches, what I had in my apartment with a carrot and a cucumber. LOL. And then I chewed gum pretty heavily, because I felt like I wanted to chew something more than anything else!

I put in either soy milk or skim milk in my coffee instead of a creamer. if your coffee is around 300 calories, something needs to change, lol. I like plain black too, it's an acquired taste but once you get it, it's really delicious. :)

Yeah I don't know why, but this certainly happens. I do treat myself quite often (only with healthy foods usually, like fruits, cottage cheese, etc) and eat occasional candy and so on. I just realized I don't really have a gigantic urge for them anymore though, sometimes they are wayy too sweet. However, I definitely know when that happens because it happens to me too!

I just don't keep stuff like that in my apartment. I have healthy treats, like yogurt, cottage cheese. I go and eat those things along with carrots on top of my daily caloric intake on certain days so I'm eating more than I should, but I don't feel bad about it because it's cottage cheese! If I have stuff like chocolate, I tend to avoid it entirely until one day where I empty the entire thing (Like I said, I don't have a huge desire for chocolate until it hits me one day, leading me to binge.)

I also used to have huge binges - I hate how my stomach feels and looks afterwards. So after I eat, I just think "Am I getting close to that feeling again?" then usually I stop eating. I know it's hard to do that during a binge though. Just after it happens, don't worry about it too much. Just go running the next day and cut down a LITTLE bit. (not too much, or it'll become a cycle). Just relax, and live on :D

Go for the vegetables first... pack your plates HIGH with vegetables and salads. THEN pick up little pieces of meat and other things here and there. It always worked for me.

Thanks for all the help! :D Since I have these key words now (choice, select, prime) hopefully I'll be ok on my own.. LOL.

Kriklaf- Well, I know it's possible but the reason I couldn't really do vegetarian diet before was because I can't really keep up with all these numbers. I rather just eat meat and get it over with since one portion of meat has like 25g of protein compared to tofu around 15g for the same amount, I think. I also eat alot of cottage cheese to make up for it, but I can't keep up with all the numbers. sigh.

Since I don't eat meat that much I just go for the grocery store stuff.. I'm a poor college student *shrugs*

Usually vegetables make me bloat along with fiber... I was really bloated lately but then I ate some avocados and it went down alot. I wonder if fat makes bloating go down? I have no idea but it worked yesterday....

Hmm, I don't know but I think my bloating reduced alot today.

I ate alot today (around 2000? I stopped counting) with around 40-60 g of fat. (some avocados and ALOT of oreo cookies today...)

Could fat REDUCE bloating?

Tiramisu all the way home. I love this stuff

sauerkraut chocolate cake or avocado cookies?

They both exist btw and Iheard both of them were actually surprisingly good ROFL

I am still taking them, but I have been taking them since May without this much bloating.

This started pretty recently so I'm wondering what's going on. I drank alot of diet sodas before this without this much bloating I think...

I think it's probably the raw veggies I've been eating. I just grab celery and carrots these days and chow down on them. or i lightly sautee them. I think I need to cook them more throughly....

Or just pure increase of veggies in general. I'm eating a high vegetable diet now because I realized I LOVE vegetables! I didn't know they could cause so much bloating... or could it be the cottage cheese?

I don't eat breakfast.... or pretty much right after I get up is right when I leave the house so this question doesn't really make sense to me. I would eat breakfast right after I get up which is right before I leave the house.

I guess I would eat before I put on clothes and brush my teeth... so first choice.

for cake alternatives (even if you would rather just have the original thing)

tofu cheese cake or cottage cheese cheesecake? DUN DUN

I'm your height with same exact numbers.

Girl let me tell you, it doesn't matter if you are 110 lbs or 105 lbs or 99lbs. You'll always feel fat. Girls will always have that "Oh i can lose another 5 lbs" feeling. I definitely had it every time I lost 5 lbs. I actually gained 5 lbs and everything fits fine. I hope I can lose 5 lbs again but let me tell you it doesn't make that much of a difference.

Today's not count my calorie day so....

lunch - korean mixed rice with vegetables, spicy sauce, and sashimi pieces. YUM! cake and fruit afterwards.

snack - cottage cheese, frozen banana, frozen peaches, apples, sucker, cookies, fiber one... This is throughout the day not in one sitting.

dinner- rice with black bean, tomatoes, cabbage, onions, green bell peppers, salsa, vegetable stock and cheese.

I suggest buying it in person because I know things dont fit right/look right when you buy online... I wouldn't risk it with this kind of purchase. You might wear it once, but the pictures will be around for a LONG time...

tealparadise- yeah I used to hate it, but after my metabolism got screwed up, I'm really happy to feel the hunger- i just feel like my body knows what the heck it wants and when it wants it :)
