Oh, you were doing so well in your post until the last two words!!
Of course you can do it!!! We can all do it, one day at a time, slowly or quickly, we can all do it.
Good job on making it through the one day! Major step forward.

Well done. Just keep doing ONE day at a time.
Health Magazine is going to be publishing an article about overcoming binge eating in the next few months.
How do I know this? I'm in the article....
Stay strong... don't seek solace in the food....

You can ABSOLUTELY, positively do it..
I for one used to have a major binge eating problem.. and I don't mean just overeating by 1000 calories for the day... I would consume thousands over in a day...
the most important thing for me was to PLAN... being hungry is the WORST thing you can experience for someone with this problem..
you CAN eat 6-7 times a day (this is what I do).. and not ever be hungry..
one day at a time? well.. more like one meal at a time..
I have been binge free for a year (except for two small slips, and the key here is to NOT try to make up for it by starving yourself the next day)..
you can do it.. absolutely.

YESSSSS!!!!! Day one under your belt is HUGE. Then it'll be day 2 and then 3 and then a week and 2 weeks and a month and before you know it ..........
You most certainly CAN do it. There are loads of people right here at 3FC who have DONE it and are currently DOING it. You are no different then them. So don't ever forget that it is DOABLE. Ahhh, yes and you are now one of them currently doing it. Keep up the good work. It is so very worth it.

Oh my gosh! Thank you for posting this message!
First of all, Congratulations on this victory!
Sometimes I feel like the only person in the world with this problem. It's nice to know I am not alone and that other people have overcome it.
