What do I do about my binge eating?


Question Posted Sunday December 2 2007, 10:22 pm

A year ago I took control of my health and lost a lot of weight (60 lbs.). I became completely obsessed with what I was eating (or rather not eating) and felt horrible if my weight went up even by a few ounces. Somwhere along the way I started binging really bad, and had to start marking my eating habits on a calendar to guilt myself into stopping. Since this school year started I've been very negative about my body. I've lost 10 lbs, but it keeps spiking back up 3-5 lbs. Two weeks ago I decided I was going to stop hating myself so much and reembrace my body. I felt better for a while, but I've been binging so bad, and I just can't seem to stop. I don't want to go back to obsessing over food, but I don't want to keep doing this...Help me.

I dont know how much help i can be to you, but i do want you to know that I am going through the same thing. I lost a lot of wieght over the summer and i have been binging lately and i gained it all back plus some. I've just begun cointing points like on wieght watchers and it seems to be helping a little. I plan out what I am going to eat the next day the night before, and i make sure to bring my lunch to school so that i have a healthy and small portion without any extra or unhealthy food. I also know that I bing when I get home from school, so I have been trying to make myself busyier durring that time, like staying after school for extra help or working overtime at my job, just so I dont have the option of eating. I've been trying really hard, and have done really well, except for today, it figures. But I wish you the best of luck, and I hope that you will be able to find a system that works for you.

I have the same problem. WEll, i binge eat alot. I had like 30 hersey kisses, 3 bowls of cereal.. ahh i cant even think about it. But I am a real healthy eater, and i am an althete so i am in shape too. And all this eating wont kill me because my body will just like, burn it off, but i hate it because i feel so nasty after i eat so much, i litteraly feel sick. So i know ive told myself it like 100 times, after i eat alot i go, "I will never do that agin" but i always do it again and i hate myself for it. So im just going to try really hard because I know I can I just don't try, which I need to. Next time I want to , im just going to go, "remember how mad you get and how crappy you feel, dont do it dont do it". I hope it works for me, maybe you can try it too. Sorry if this didn't help I just understand what your going through so im here if you need it.
