Hi everyone!! Welcome to the binge free challenge!! You can come in here and post your weekly successes and struggles and keep track of your binge free days. You can also vent about anything and everything you feel like getting out. We are here to share our feelings and to encourage and inspire each other. No negativity! We are strong chicks and I KNOW we all can do this!! And we don't have to do it alone, we have each other to get us through the rough times.
ALL chicks are welcome -- no one is excluded! If you are trying to lose weight, not trying, maintaining, recovering from an eating disorder, in the midst of one, or have ANY kind of problem with food, we would love to have you join us!!
I'm on day 9 today--I overate yesterday, but didn't binge. I was able to stop myself in the evening, and this morning I woke up very hungry, so that's good--I feel that it's important to let myself get a little hungry sometimes (but only when I have a plan and can eat before getting too hungry, of course!).
I'm in. Today is day 1 for me. I feel so guilty and horrible for bingeing on Saturday. I know if I stop feeling guilty I can continue another long binge-free streak like I had going. It's so hard to stop kicking myself and feeling guilty. But now I have to look forward, right? Not back.
This is day 1 for me. I haven't had a real binge in a while, but I have eaten out of a "binge reflex" if that makes sense. I just managed to keep myself from going all out. So now I want to keep myself from putting any food in my mouth that I'm not supposed to.
I am going to do my VERY best this week to be conscious of what I eat. I am on spring break and will be heading home to Willy Wonkaland (aka my parents house) for a few days. Saying how scared I am of going home because of all the junk food does me no good. Saying that I am going to super restrict myself does nothing but backfire on me and make me binge. So this time...I am going to not think about it. Sure there will be cookies and chips and lord knows what else there but will I up and die if I don't eat them? No....and it's not like I've gone months and months without eating those foods so there's no reason why I need to stuff myself silly with the idea that "since I don't normally eat this stuff, let's just pig out". I would love to be able to go home and just enjoy the time with my mom, dad, and my dog and NOT be terrified of what lurks 10 feet away in the kitchen. Here's hoping... :-) Everyone have a FANTASTIC week!
Hey guys! It's been a while, well I had spring break this past week so I'm on Day 2. I've been doing better with watching drinking and snacking. Today seems to be OP. Yesterday I did great and I joined another Calorie counting challenge. I want to lose 5lbs by april 30th, which I think is a great possibility. I hope everyone has a great binge-free day and I will hopefully get to everyone later.
not sure what day i am on... more than 75 and less than 90...struggling a bit right now, just had some popcorn and really want to eat eveyrthing in the house right now...and i dont even have any junk really... i just want to eat eat eat right now... and i dont really care what... oh man... i know this will pass...right!?!? ... it will pass!!! breath in, breath out... i've eaten enough today...
i'm going to sip my tea and keep this computer on my lap so i cannot get up and eat...
thanks, ladies, for being a second conscience for me!!!
I ate liberally on Sunday, but really only compared to my current eating, not the past when I could have eaten more in one meal than I had all day Sunday. I didn't binge though and during all 3 meals I quit when I was full!!! That's big for me as I have a terrible time leaving food on the plate even when I'm stuffed. I'm working on that and trying to adjust my mindset.
Monday was stellar. Stayed within my calorie goals with no real desires to go off plan.
I'm hoping I can make it 6 weeks binge free! This has shattered all previous records!
