I'm so happy for everyone!!

Chrys - 2 days is awesome! I'm on day 2 also, and it is so hard to start all over again, and to make it 2 days binge-free is such an accomplishment! If it makes you feel any better, 9 days was a huge accomplishment too -- you should be proud of yourself for that!!

Surfer - good luck today!! Hope you had a good day!!

Danzingurl - did you see more of a whoosh? I thought about you when I stepped on the scale this morning -- both of us hoping for the same thing! You should be so proud for making it through 3 days!! Day 2 was tough enough for me; you should be so proud for making it 3 whole days!!

Smurphy - we're on the same schedule - on day 2 today. We can do this!! We already got through day 1, and day 2 is double the accomplishment!

Annie - 4 days is awesome! Keep it up!

Xena - I hope you made it through last night and today!!!! Sending positive thoughts your way!!!

As for me, I am getting ready to tuck myself under the covers so I cannot eat anything else. I'm making it through Day 2. I did see a whoosh today -- lost 7.3 pounds of water weight (down from 154.1 to 146.8). It's crazy how much water the body can retain. I'm hoping that more water weight comes off tomorrow. I'm still up 13.2 pounds(!!!) from a week ago, pre-binge. I can't believe I did that much damage, and I'm so angry with myself when I think about how long it will take me to lose the weight. In addition, I was already up almost 4 pounds from goal weight, so I really have 17(!!!) pounds to lose! DARN IT!!!!! Oh well, at least I can be thankful that I didn't do any more damage than that! At least I stopped at 7 days and 13.2 pounds, but I wish I had been able to prevent myself from bingeing in the first place!

Sending warm thoughts to everyone for a binge-free evening and night!

Hi Ladies,

Today is Day 4 Sooooo happy that I made it through the weekend. I just had a greek yogurt and am not hungry but keep contemplating if I want another one. I think I just go to bed for now. Stupid things running through my mind.

PaintedPonies - a week!!! How awesome is that???

surfergirl2 - oh I hear you. I canīt take the sf stuff as well. My body just goes crazy!!! Very uncomfortable.

Chrys666 - 9 days is awesome, now you can get to the two digits.

danzingurl - Day 3 That means you started on a Saturday - wow!!! I always fool myself that I canīt make it through weekends, but we totally did.

SmurphyKU - stay positive and get excited. It is harder to start over than to just stay on track (that is what I try to tell myself right now).

NightowlAnnie - yay, day 4 here as well.

Doingmybest79 - I am so happy that you made it! I will go to bed as well now. We should set a goal - next weekend team work again???

Alrighty today is Day 5 - the scale isnīt too impressed from my efforts to not binge and lose weight. Hanging in there...but yeah it sucks. I wish the scale would move. I am eating arounf 1500-1600 calories, so I am not starving nor eating too much according to MFP.

Just had my favorite breakfast EVER! A Everything Bagel with half a avocado on top. It actually keeps me full all morning. Since the scale doesnīt do a thing I start thinking about going low carb tonight but I know that any efforts to eat strategically perfect to lose the weight end in a binge. So for now I just want to make it through the rest of March bingefree and then I might change some things in my diet.

Doingmybest- I did see a little more of a woosh! I'm only 1lb away from my pre-binge weight now... Do you still have a lot of water coming off?? I hope so!

Xena- thanks! I think that you are right to focus on not bingeing before you shift your focus to losing more weight. Keep up the good work

Today starts day 4 for me, but I'm nervous about how this week is going to go- DH just left on buisness so I'll be alone until I leave on Friday for a weekend dance competition.. 7 days without a hubby plus an out of town dance competition thrown in the middle of that could be a recipie for disaster. But- I'm trying to stay positive!! Here goes nothing...

I am not feeling too excited about this week either. Normally i am only in danger of binging on the weekends, but it's only Tuesday and i already feel like Monday and today have been hard. I am tempted to throw in the towel and just binge. But that's stupid right???? I mean if i'm really hungry, i should add like 200 calories. Even an extra 500 and i'd still be around maintenance. It is really stupid to think a 4000 calorie binge is my only other option!!!

Doingmybest79 -awesome!! we've got this! how is your day 3 going?

stay positive danzingurl77 and surfergirl2!! I think you're right.. adding a few hundred more calories is MUCH better than the alternative! you've got this!


Day 3 for me! I've been having a really stressful day today, which definitely always wants to make me raid the food cabinet when I get home. But I've been good so far. If I can just get through, tomorrow is going to be less stressful!

Man today is a bad day. First the scale isn't moving, then my train is two hours late and i need to prepare a seminar for a conference tomorrow.

On days like this i really wish bingeing wouldn't get me fat and I could just eat everything I want...

Trying to stay on track...

@chickie32

I totally get what you're saying! I love heading to the gym and can always eat right...at least during the week. Then I'm over a friend's on a Saturday and as soon as I walk through the door, BAM! Here come the oreos and gummy bears and there goes my diet. *Sigh* I usually end up bingeing on junk food whenever I hang out with my friends. Tomorrow will be day one for me, hope I can do it! Maybe I'll just bring celery with me next time?

Alright so I had another bagle with butter, 1 cheese stick and 1 cereal bar for dinner. Definitly more than planned and I for sure will not lose any weight tomorrow morning.

I know this wasnīt a binge compared what I usually eat during a binge, but it felt bingey if you know what I mean.

I will still give myself credit for not going into binge mode. So tomorrow is Day 6!

How funny - the scale moved today. I actually laughed this morning when i saw that.

Off to day 6!!! I can't believe that tomorrow will mark one binge free week...
