Hi Chicks, I haven't posted for a while cause I'm pretty busy taking care of my elderly mom. I am not doing as well as i was before my mom moved in with us. I find that if i have just 1 minute to spare it has to be spent on eating! I binged two days ago, but not as bad as usual. Then today was going well until about 3:00pm. All **** broke loose! I ate everything I could get my hands on. Again not as bad of a binge as usual, but it sure was enough. Before my mom moved in I was 104lbs. Now I am 107, and I'm not going to let binging beat me! I'm starting day one tomorrow. I can't go longer than 7 days without binging until I'm sick. But I sure am going to try!!!!!

Day 5 for me. I feel so much better than I did on day 1--all that heartburn is gone, my eyes don't feel so dry, my fingers are swollen--the difference is amazing, and quite motivating!

Starting day 5....praying for strength this weekend since I'll be at a friends dinner/bday party tonight and a superbowl party tomorrow. I feel so good right now I'm dreading the bloating and swollen stomach I might get if I binge. Hopefully this is motivation for me not to. Hope everyone has a great weekend!

Day 1 for me, I did good today, I hope I can keep this up. I feel so much better when I don't binge.

Sorry I have been MIA. Today was my day 6.... and I feel good! Not cocky but good!

Today was the first Saturday in forever that I did not throw out my counting points and just eat whatever or the "B" word! I am satisfied with what I ate and very content. It is a great feeling.

I am not sure if this has anything to do with it or not.... but I have PROMISED myself I am not going to weigh until March 1....NO MATTER WHAT and it seems like the weight of the world is off my shoulders. I am staying within my points (so I don't have a shocker when I do weigh). I can tell in appearance of my stomach that something is going on.... I am curious, but I made this vow to me.... so I am sticking to it.

13 days down!

I craved a binge today - fast food and sweets to be specific. I knew it wasn't an option and I never really considered doing it, but I know part of me wanted to.

Day 18.

Last night I finally gave in, went to the kitchen and reached for the cereal. My brother entered the kitchen at that very moment, looked at me and said: didn't you say those cereals were junk and we shouldn't get them anymore?
I told him this was right and he had better take the box to his room or Id throw it out.
He took the box to his room...and I'm sure he thinks I have gone crazy. But after that the urge to binge was gone. I'm glad he surprised me.

Lizaly, that was awesome! And, if you are crazy-- I am too. My son's room seems to be the last stop for junk food in our house.

just need to make it through a few more hours and the binge-free week is complete! i realised yesterday that having a boyfriend (I have been single/divorced for about 15 months now and am with my second boyfriend since then) really sends me reeling... will he understand? what do you i tell him? how can i make him understand? what do i eat when i am at his place? is he offended that i bring my own food to make sure i am not hungry or eating junk?

well... boyfriend #1 didnt understand and i did try hard enough to help him get it... i think boyfriend #2 might actually 'get it' enough to let me calm down about it... its amazing how MY problem affects EVERYONE around me!

oh to be 'normal' and not use food this way!!!

provided i stay on plan in the next few hours (which I will gosh darn it!!!) i am finishing day 43 today.... I soooo want to see 45...!!!

thanks for letting me rant!

Day two for me, and I did well surprisingly. I guess I'm so afraid I'll gain more weight that binging is out of the question for now.

-Edited to update-

Turns out I did not make it through the day. I feel weak and ashamed, but here's what happened: I had been liberal with what I ate today without going nuts. Then I was in Wal-Mart, a non-food aisle, and I looked up... Two words: Cadbury Eggs. They were stored up high waiting for Valentine's Day to pass before getting their spot in the seasonal aisle. They are a weakness, I love them, and I knew I had to have them just once! So I got something long and knocked down a package to bring home. I didn't intend to eat anything else tonight, but I started to get hungry. I went to the fridge and got a Lunchable. I ate it and thought I would have one cream egg then put the rest up and certainly not have more than one in a week. Well, I couldn't stop with one and I ate ALL FOUR!!! My Lunchable and eggs total 940 unnecessary calories. I have definitely had far worse binges, but this one was mindless nonetheless and I feel quite guilty.

So I appreciate having this thread to vent my mistake, even though I fear I am a disappointment. I know that I have to stay focused! I can not let this binge throw me off track like binges have in the past. Tomorrow is a new day, a new week, and I don't have to fail!
