Today, I pulled out of the internet dating sites I was on to get a break from the insanity of trying to make legitimate connections with only a picture and some words to go by. There has got to be a better way to meet people. So many guys I was in contact with only [...]

For the past week, I have not binged at all, which is amazing because I’ve been to a ton of restaurants in the past week and a half (Greek, Japanese, Cajun, Vietnamese, Italian, Asian fusion, and American). I ate at a restaurant nearly every day. Usually I avoid restaurants because I think they make me [...]

…and I’m going to bed soon so I don’t get tempted. Today it was easy not to overeat because my day was full of wonderful stuff. I was able to leave work early, go for a run, and then go to my improv class. Laughing for two hours is great for the soul. Told a [...]

I haven’t been posting on my blog because what can I say…I continue to binge and I am gaining weight fast. I hate the weight gain, but in a deep way I don’t want to stop because I believe overeating is the only way to get comfort in my stressful life.
I’ve been honest in my [...]

It has been seven days since I resumed bingeing again and got on the scale for a wake up call. Gain of one pound, which isn’t terrible. So, it is Friday and I am recommitting myself to a binge free existence. One month with very few binges felt wonderful. I don’t want to go back [...]

I am coping with some major fear stuff today, not directly related to my eating. Fear wears me out and tells me I won’t be able to do it so I should not try. Fear creeps into my eating in that I have been successful for the past month in curbing my binge eating and [...]

Day One on the binge count has come again. I binged yesterday. Twice. Not the worst binges I had yesterday, but time to come clean. First one came at 5 am when I was coming home from a club after dancing and listening to music. I felt the need to eat. I was only a [...]

A few days ago I wrote a draft on my spoken word piece for my eating disorder event. Tropical Storm Hannah did not wash it out and it was wonderful. Two of my friends went and were fine being the only men there. It was great having a reunion with my sister’s from Renfrew Center [...]

To deal with the need to eat extra food I took a long nap, then I took a walk, then a phone call. Then I dug into my pickled hot peppers. At about 5 cal per pepper, they aren’t a big deal…or are they? They are loaded with sodium. And eating one after another isn’t [...]
