I am on the tail end of day five. I had pizza for dinner (but a reasonable amount) AND I ate it in front of the TV (not such a good idea--it is my trigger for binging).
I am in a funky mood and I am worried. I hope I can hang on. If my sweetie wants to watch TV together tonight and pulls out the ice cream I am not sure I can take it...

Karen -- stay strong with me. I've felt shaky today, too, and I nearly binged on Oreos tonight. I even started crying during my workout because I thought I looked awful... so maybe I'm not the best person to give support right now, but I want you to know that I'm experiencing the same thing and I want both of us to MAKE IT! Make it through tonight! One day, one hour at a time. Tell yourself: I AM NOT GOING TO BINGE TONIGHT. I won't if you won't.

Karen and Skyra - you can do this - I will second what Skyra said - "one day, one hour at a time" and add - one MINUTE at a time. That is really the only way I am pulling through right now.
Day 5 for me. F-I-V-E. I am truly amazed. Thanks to everyone here for the support you've given!

Finished with day 5! Haven't been here in awhile, my internet sort of died. I had some ice cream yesterday, but it was a small portion in a restaurant with more fruit than ice cream. I am excited because I don't feel guilty, therefore no urge to binge. So often I binge when I eat one "bad" food I feel like I might as well throw the whole day away. And I didn't!

You can do it Karen and Skyra!! You'll feel sooo good when you successfully turn away from the food. It's so empowering. *hug*
D, I tried the peanut butter and jelly oatmeal this morning. It's so yummy!! Thanks for the recipe 
Today's going to be a hard day. I'll be on a 5 hour car ride and my parents pack lots of snacks that will be sitting next to me in the back seat the whole way. Last week I didn't stop eating them the whole time I was in the car. I'm planning on which snacks I'm going to eat every 2 hours. Other than that I have to make sure I stop myself. I can do this!

Jessica good luck today! Throw a blanket over the snacks or something so you won't see them lol You can do it! Congrats lost! See it IS possible!!! One day at a time girl. This is the start of day 5 for me and I started it with an awesome workout and yummy breakfast of kashi cereal with cinnamon sprinkled on top along with a yogurt :-) It's Friday ladies! Let's end the work week on a good note!!

at dinner out, I just took a couple bites from my favorite molten dessert and then passed the plate to someone else and I've been binge free so far all day, I really think I'm making a breakthrough

Hooray for EVERY SINGLE PERSON on this board. It's really awesome to hear all your success stories.  I could have binged on Reese's today, but I didn't! Partially because I wanted to get to the end of the week with everybody else! I ate edamame instead, which was still satisfying. It's so great to know this is DAY SIX of eating sensibly. I haven't done this well in such a long time! Thanks to everybody ... and here's to more binge-free days.

Hey ladies! Unfortunately, binge free week was quite binge FULL. It's definitely not a good feeling because I know I'm stronger than this, but I'm learning my lesson this time. I have to! It's time to reign myself in and take control! I'm an adult for goodness sakes! So my binge free week starts today. Lots of temptations around but my plan is to avoid them altogether because I know if I go for moderation today, I'll set myself up for failure. I'll be back tonight to report on day 1. Wish me luck!
