Sick of Binge Eating!!!
I am soooo sick and tired of doing “good” for a couple weeks and then it becomes unbearable! I want the worse possible for me at those times! I’ve been fighting with binge eating for about 2 years now. I have been to eating disorder clinics, been on meds, and talk to several therapists and nutritionists! Somehow, I still have these cravings and urges to binge! I have put on about 85lbs in about a year and half and it has made me MISERABLE! I will lose a several lbs and then with 1 or 2 binges gain it all back! It has been a vicious circle! I just want to be able to eating normal again!

wow. that’s really tough. i seriously binged out of control when I was taking a certain birth control pill. I was constantly hungry and it wrecked my head.
Binging for me is an emotional thing now. I used to do it when I was bored or anxious or upset. I have good weeks and bad weeks, but at the minute, it seems under control. I was also depressed because of it and other things, and I actually found that anti-depressants have helped calm down my binging.
Drop me a line if you want to talk it out ok?
Have you ever tried a day “off” once a week? I take one day a week to have a cheat meal but I still exercise. It relieves the pressure of trying to be 100% on plan all the time, and if I get cravings during the week, it is easier to thinnk “I will wait until my day off” instead of “I can never have that!”
Well I’m on a antidepressant now but it still hasn’t helped. My dr has tried me out on several but I have awful side effects on most. Everything I’ve heard and read say that anti-depressants help but I haven’t seen much change in me. Thats crazy that birth control played such a big role in your binging. I haven’t really ever heard that.
I agree about it being emotional, I will binge if I’m upset or bored! But it’s the times where I feel like I have 2 that just have me all confused! There’s alot about my past and how was raised that every therapist or dr I have seen say that it’s linked too. It just TOTALLY sucks! : )) There’s no other way to put it!
Thank You! I will probably take u up on that!
Kinda…I guess u could say! : ) I tried that again this weekend b/c we went to a Rangers game with alot of friends. I somehow still feel guilty the next day! I feel like that b/c of that one day I’m gonna gain everything I’ve lost that week back! I’ll get on the scale right after I eat “whatever I want” for some reason…I guess to make myself see that I should of done that??? I may try maybe just a meal out of the week! Thanks so much for the suggestion!!
