worst binge experience?
Just out of curiosity...what was your worst binge experience? i dont mean like 1000 calories, i mean like serious binging like over 3000 calorie binging? Heres mine: i ate my usual meals untill dinner. but then my housemate brought some kind of banana with chocolate fudge for desert. i normally dont like fudge but i thought id have something different than usual. and i guess that triggered it. i was having a sugar crave all night after that. i snuck into my housemates room and had bars and bars of his chocolates, and handfulls of cookies from someone else. then i decided it was all too sweet, so i made myself instant soup, and then as if that was too salty and so i had like 3 huge slices of cake (which was like half the cake. and it was one of those huge hazelnut/almond chocolate cakes) then i felt i oought to eat something healthy to make up for it, so then an apple, but then felt like something salty again, so i had a big toast sandwich with butter, cheddar chese, ham, bacon, and salami. but ofcourse, that made me want more sweet things, so i had one of those big 150g bar of marzipan chocolate.
Yeah, thats never gonna happen again, i was like sick the next morning. and that night, i felt soo bad i felt soooo thirsty but i felt like the tiniest bit of water would make me vomit, because my stomach was so full. my stomach was inflated like over twice its size. i even woke up several times in the night feeling lke i was instantely going to throw up. but ofcourse i didnt (my stomach is very strong i guess). so yeah, never again. now i have something to remember next time i get the urge to binge!
so people, write your worst experiences, and remember how bad you felt, so u dont do it again!

3/4 container of a turkey hill gallon of frozen yogurt 6 tablespoons of peanut butter 6 or 7 bowls of cereal 1 100 calorie pack 2 pieces of toast with margarine a bunch of grapes a bunch of crackers a banana a bowl of oatmeal some cottage cheese
It happened b/c I was stressed with midterms. By the time the weekend came I was like "oh i have been good all week - ate good and hit up the gym, myaybe i'll cheat a little." And I only intended to have like, maybe a little frozen yogurt and a spoon or two of melted pb on it. Then it snowballs and I'm like screw it, I might as well eat whatever I want. I really need to get this idea that a "bad day/cheat day" is ok bc it makes me feel awful the next day. And the next day I felt awful. And for some reason I weighed myself that day, and I was like 4 pounds heavier than I usually am. My tummy was hugggeeee and I felt like my pants could barely button b/c I was so puffy. Although I didn't feel hungry at all the next day I forced myself to eat lightly b/c I didn't want it to be like 11pm and be ravenous.
wow i just had a binge and was feeling sick and terrible from it, and then i re-read this post...now i feel great, cuz i just remembered how bad that binge was before. i should re-read that post more often:P
I've had many binges that lasted over several hours where I just systematically ate my way through the kitchen, but I don't remember the components. The only one that I remember EXACTLY what I ate is this:
A fish and fry platter from Captain Ds.
A double cheeseburger and large fries from McDonalds.
A medium fry and McFlurry from another McDonalds.
Unidentified amount of cookies from the grocery store.
Oh, and that was after having a loaded salad at the college cafeteria.
For the first time in three years, I just took the time to figure out the calories for that. 3742. Shoot. That's disgusting.
A few weeks ago I went to my mom's house. No one was home and after making a record 5 days without binging I went crazy:
-Large amount of peanut butter filled pretzels.
-A chicken stir-fry
-2 bowls of cookie crisp cereal
-Toaster strudel
-Half tube of raw cookie dough
-5 pieces of fudge
-3 slices of toast with butter
-2 Chewy bars dipped in honey
-6 Cheese cubes
-Multiple scoops of plain peanut butter
-A few hand fulls of cashews
The sheer variety was enough to make me sick. After that I curled up in a ball and wanted to die. But my lesson was not learned...about 4 hours later I went for round 2! I headed to Dairy Queen and got a medium Reeses blizzard and a brownie explosion sundae and of course I ate them both!
I have no idea how many calories that was because I'm not 100% sure of my amounts..but the next day I was 7 pounds heavier.
The bad part is I haven't been home since. I plan on going home this weekend and I'm so scared this will happen all over again!
i ate a whole 12 x 9 inch pan of cream cheese brownies with a half tub of peanut butter and a handful of chocolate truffles.
later i had a bowl of 10 potatos (mashed) drizzled with soy sauce. it really hurt....
Ok, here goes...
3 Glazed Donuts
1 batch Chocolate Chip Cookies
6 Pop Tarts
1 Batch of Biscuits
3 Jumbo Peanut Butter Cookie/ Ice Cream Sandwhiches
A bunch of other small things I can't remember.
Once I at all of my boyfriends Hawaiian Bread (2 large loaves) in one night. The next day he went to eat some and I ahd to confess I ate it all. He was shocked.
I also used to go through boxes of cereal, jumbo bags of pretzels, bags of Chex mix, Loaves of Bread, packages of flour tortillas, gallons of ice cream, cakes, muffins, cupcakes, frosting etc.
It is so sad. I re-gained 25 lbs. from that. Happily I am through the worst of it now. 
Then I had a ding-dong. Only 160 calories in one ding-dong, but it made me feel an immense sense of guilt for eating something 'bad'. So, on came the binge:
1 bagel toasted with cream cheese, 1 jos louis, 14 raspeberry fig newons (at 55 calories a piece), 1 ding-dong, 1 full moon pastery, 1 viva puff cookie, 1/2 a can of alphaghetti straight from the can, 2 granola bars, a handful of almonds, 14 rice crackers, melba toast with hummus, 1 cheesestring, 1 bowl of Fiber 1 honey clusters with 2% milk and 1/4 cup of dried cranberries, all eaten from 4:30 pm to midnight.
plus I had eaten food up til then within my planned calorie alotment.
ai yi yi.
time to update. i finished another binge and it hurts so much. my binge came up to 3500-4000 cals.
it was made up of creamy peanut butter, then i went in the pantry and "ooh! chunky peanut butter!" then a box of graham crackers, uncountable bowls of mini wheats and corn flakes with milk and sugar.
i finished off with three packets of oatmeal and (i'm scared to count) bananas.
hmm, oh! a pudding cup and cheddar cheese. i didn't think those two would taste good together.
damn, i just remembered i had cookies too. ugh!
My worst two binges:
1. 1/4 lb. dried mangos, 1.5 cups yogurt covered raisins, .5 cup chocolate covered raisins, 1 cup frozen yogurt, 2 chocolate chip oatmeal cookies, 3 bowls of raisin bran. All in about two hours. Probably about 3000 calories. I wish I'd spread it out over the whole day; it wouldn't have made me so sick then.
2. This was the worst. Every time my stomach got full, I purged then filled it up to the max again. 1 box peanut butter flavored puffins, 2 cups Almond Breeze, 2 cups raisin bran, 1/2 gallon ice cream, some chocolate sauce, a couple spoonfuls of peanut butter, a baked potato with cottage cheese, yogurt covered pretzels, six fig bars, a homemade cookie, 3/4 cup mac and cheese, dried pineapple, and chex mix. No idea how many calories, especially with the purging. The whole thing cost me a fortune, though. Gah. My parents don't kepe that type of junk in the house so I had to go out and buy it. I think being totally broke would solve my bingeing problem, lol.
Normally my binges just involve like a couple cups of cereal and whatever frozen desserts are at hand, but sometimes I get really, really out of control. XP
Sad, I used to beat myself up for binging on grapes or eating more than 1 serving of fruit, that's seems so long ago and distant, I've gotten worst.
I remember halloween of 2006. I figured "it's halloween, might as well take advantage of it", I was also anorexic at the time, soI went a little overbaord with my "free day"
For breakfast I had 2 packaged sprinkle brownies. Lunch was a spicy crunch KFC chicken sandwhich, popcorn chicken, gravy, and mozza sticks with ranch. a coffee crisp and twix for snack. for my last class I bought a bag of famous amous chocolate chip coockies with choco milk. After school I stopped at the store and bought pizza pops. I ate 2 with ranch dressing. Then I had 2 more sprinkle brownies. Went out to something to eat before trickor treating and ate 1/2 large dish of chicken fried rice. (by this time it wouldn't even go down it was sitting in my throat) Then we when trick-or-treating, I drank a pop along the way, and when I got home I gorged myself on chocolates and candies, put myself into a sugar coma, woke up in the middle of the night and gorged myself again..
it's wierd that I can still remember that....
I've had a few big binges in my time. But one of the major ones I had was:
After dinner at one time, I just went crazy and had the following within 30 mins:
- 6 Packet of crisps (potato chips)
- 2 bars of 100g white chocolate
- 2 packets of chewitts
- 4 slices of brown bread with jam and butter
- Sweetcorn
- 5 chocolate digestive bars
- 5 Chewee bars
and I think that was it :x
Whew, reading these makes me feel a little better about what I just did
I was feeling antsy when I got off work because I hadn't had dinner... so I went to get an apple juice from the nearest coffee shop and ended up getting a peanut butter cookie... then stopped at Dairy Queen on the way home and got a chocolate brownie sundae AND an oreo blizzard and ate both (haha ...) ... than went to the grocery store and bought a box of almond crunch cereal and ate half the box... well regurgitated some of it...but still ... it's kind of sitting there like a rock and the moment...i'm sure I'll have a fun time digesting all of this!
Oh...lord. One terrible night in January:
- at least a liter of ice cream, candy cane flavored, with chocolate syrup and brown sugar
- 3 peanut butter and jelly sandwiches
- large portion of chocolate brownie cake
- shake and bake chicken
- potatoes, macaroni salad
- 500g toblerone
- curry rice stuff
- packet of mr. noodle
- chicken pita thing
- pizza pockets
- 2 cream cheese bagel
I was home alone with all that food and it was definitely my worst ED moment. I ate and purged and ate and purged until it was all gone and my throat felt like it was gonna fall out. Disgusting. Not very proud. There have been other situations, but that was the worst in one sitting.
Binge eating is a serious problem and can affect your health in a significant way.
