DON'T DO IT! funny..i have the same feeling. but I know I'll regret it later and beat myself up about it. Try going for a walk if you can, that's what I'm about to do and it usually helps. Or do something else you enjoy for 15-20min that will keep you occupied and give you time to think. Ten days is a long time, congradulations!, but stopping the binging cycle is only going to get harder if you keep going back to it.

 

I hope this helps- I know how hard it can get. But we can ride it out. :)

I don't know if this is appropriate.... I'd try to work out what it is that you're drawn to food-wise and think of a healthy way to get the same kick/fill/flavour from something a little healthier.  If you're just looking for the sensation of a full tummy.... something lavish but vegetable-based can be really filling and satisfying. 

ok. i think i'm ok. i can still feel that feeling down in me. but not as overwhelming and out of control. i just need to make it through 2 more hours - then i'm off to the yoga studio.

gi-jane: it's not even about the food, with me. it's completely a mental thing. i have no idea what brought the almost uncontrollable urge to well up inside of me.

just breath. just breath...

 

thanks guys - for your responses. this website and subsequent forums helped me a bit too. some cleaning distractions. some conscious breathing. some of my anti-anxiety meds...

*another big breath*
