Your worst binge "death" stories

I've had a few fights with food when it comes to binging.

I've thrown both Captain Crunch and Honey Nut Cheerios out my back door on 2 occassions.

I've smashed a bag of tortilla chips to a pulp on my kitchen floor

I've melted a 1/2 gallon of ice cream (or whatever was left of it) in my kitchen sink while saying "die die die" as it went down the drain.

What's your worst binge "death" story?

I dumped onion powder, garlic powder, seasoned salt, and black pepper all over the remainder of a cake (after I had already binged and purged once).  I've smooshed things into the trash, or at least made sure they weren't protected from the surrounding ickiness in the trash bin, so that I wouldn't go back and pick it out later or the next day.

One of my simplest but most effective "death" stories is when, during a previous relapse into anorexia, I had bought a whopping 2 donuts to "binge" on (because your body can honestly only go so long without donuts lol), and once I got home, I just walked them straight outside trash can, threw them in, and never regretted it.

there was a class party at school and i brought 2 family-sized bags of marshmallows, but the class only ended up eating one so i took the 2nd bag home.

i got home and put the WHOLE BAG in the microwave and microwaved it for like 2 minutes. the marshmallows melted, expanded and all stuck together in an icky, glue-like way. the only issue was that the bag kind of popped and i had marshmallows stuck to every side of the microwave?

but at least i didn't eat them ;)

I used to have a problem with eating everything on my plate at a restaurant. Instead of doing something that people would notice like pouring water on the plate, I just eat half the food, assess my hunger and if I'm done, I put my napkin on top, then my fork so that I'll odd if someone were to notice me picking at it after I've napkined it.

Other items like ice cream or chips, I do NOT buy. I've learned that the serving size is too small/unrealistic so I know I'll regret having it in the house.

Only recently I had my first "die food" moment.  I opened a Fudgesicle after having five cookies (I'm trying to gain, lol) then I ripped it apart and threw it on the ground outside.  Hahaha.

(Note: I didn't throw it away because of its calorie content, but because it was empty calories.  When I am trying to up my calories, the easy way out is to just eat a bunch of junk food, but I am actually trying to stay healthy so I had an apple and peanut butter instead.  I'm trying to eat more but stay healthy.)

Way to go okgo! Filling your body with healthy foods is better than sweets and sugars. But I'll admit, I've had my share of fudgesicles. Cookies on the other hand I try not to keep in the house :) Especially chewy ones.

I used to eat a fudgesicle every weekend morning when I was a kid. And read Archie comics.

I had one today.... I had some different snack foods in the car, little packs of Chickadees (like goldfish) and Peanut Butter Filled Pretzals.....I opened all the little packs and I dumped them all into a plastic grocery bag, crunched them up and poured water on them.  

 

Now just to avoid my parents' anneversary cake (which unfortunately can't be thrown out....)

I melt egg yolk down the kitchen sink and that really annoys my mum if she sees it.....

Deja vu!  I had Chickadees with my lunch today.  They're delicious, but I have to say it may not be worth the 180 calories.  I think the same amount of Goldfish is only 150 or something, and of course Goldfish are WAY better.  Haha, random.

I once threw away and entire brand new jar of nutella and peanut butter...

With stuff like pizza or cake I mush it up and coat it in bleach. If I don't I'll just retrieve it from the bin later. Groooooss.

hmm binge death would be nice usually though once I've started there's no stopping. although I have bought food(sometimes after driving out of town to an outside shop) and walked out of the shop dropped it straight in the bin and drove off.

oh and if you feel bad for wasteing food try my latest very unclassy move of buying the worst and most binge food I can imagine(my relapses tend to make up for lost time lol) after driving aroung for an hour to get it stopping in the middle of the road- 2 in the morning half way between shop and home - considering literally running away from the car and food but instead just leaving it in the middle of the road and speeding off(as if its going to chase me!?!) thats harsh. thought about going back in the morning to bin it but even rain and tyre marks wouldn't stop me. uk, I'm going to hell for that one

the other day I crushed a bag of chips and tossed it. it felt good :)

Once I went to the store in my binge mode. I filled a huge bag of pic-n-mix candy and paid for it... But when I was on my way home, I suddenly just... threw the bag into the dark forest. O_o Talk about waste of money.

I once put an oven-pancake in the oven, let it be there for a few mins, when I suddenly realized that if I don't do something, the pancake will be gone in a few hours... Thats over 1000 calories... So I just took it out and threw it in the garbage. It was all just hot, non-solid batter.

But usually I just destroy the binge food like this: I just eat it all.

Once at my desk, I had a jar of peanut butter and I couldn't put it down.  Opened the cap, scooped a spoonful, ate it, screwed the cap back on.  Rest.  Repeat.  I repeated probably 15 times before I got up, took the peanut butter up the elevator to the 7th floor (I work on the first floor) and thew it away in a garbage can in front of a ton of peoples' desks and went back downstairs.  That felt good!

Next time, take the stairs.  :)  It will make up for a bit of binge.  :)

To me, it is just as wasteful to binge (eating way more calories than necessary of junk food) as it is to thwart a binge by throwing away the culprit food.  The few times I have been able to stop a binge- I may "waste" the food by throwing it out, but at least I am not going to waste the next couple of days self-loathing and obsessing about every morsel I eat and every calorie I burn, waste precious time with my baby daughter who is learning new things every day because I am too preoccupied with "feeling fat", and wasting opportunities with my wonderful husband who deserves a wife who wants to be engaged in life!!!  Reminding myself of the binge aftermath is my best defense against binging- better than trying to destory the binge food!!!

Good thread by the way!

Old thread by the way!

super old thread....

But I love the dish soap idea...I usually throw the item in question out my back door into the dirt.  It works for me since I've been known to 'save' things I tried to get rid of other ways.  And the next day I clean up whatever the wild animals didn't eat.
