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!!
wooo hooo... earning day 93 today! i even have peanut butter in the house now and went to a sugar bush and a birthday party this weekend! i was close to my calories (maybe a touch over) but this instinctive eating I am trying to do is really working! (ie. only eating if i am hungry and only planning a day ahead instead of a week or more!)... have to admit, kinda proud of myself right now!!!
I'm SO frustrated because I've weighed in the same for the past 2 mondays. I've been sticking to my healthy lifestyle changes and excercising regularly. UGH - frustrated. It makes it so easy to rationalize giving up.
@ happytobeamomof2 - AWESOME, congrats on 93 days!
I had gone 20 something days, then messed it up Friday. Friday was a planned "treat day" but I turned it into a binge....and I did so again Saturday b/c I viewed my weekend as "already wrecked." Sad truth: I think part of me just missed that mindless eating, so when I did it Friday I wanted to do it again Sat.
I did well Sunday and worked out also. Just have to get back on track, even though I know on Easter I will be indulging again...but hopefully not binging.
Hey guys! I would like to join this challenge....I completed a week and on to another. I haven't ever made it for a full 2 weeks. So that's one of my goals for this challenge.
1. 2 weeks binge free
2. get my stuff situated for school and dealt with, I'm graduating in May and I have alot of stuff I've been procrastinating on.
3. No eating out this week!
4. keep within my calorie range
5. make time every night for 1 hr to spend with the bf and no watching T.V.
6. Get to my goal weight for my challenge
7. finish my comm. theory practice problems..that's the class i'm struggling with.
These are just personal goals for me but I'm an emotional eater and when I don't deal with problems in my life I turn to food so that's what I'm going to work on this week. I wish everyone a wonderful challenge and a binge-free Day.
Oh and I posted in last weeks challenge considering I didn't get to check in yesterday. I made 8 Days and I'm on Day 9!
TOM has arrived and I have been eating a little bit higher calories, but still within my budget. I find PMS to be my one big challenge. During this time, I really have to get a grip to handle the urge to binge. I just keep it in mind that this is PMS related and will only last a few days. Just gotta struggle through a few days...
jdonato- Super-supporter! Yay for not eating out and for saving that money! It really is sickening to pull up the months bank statement and see how quickly all those little bits add up. My husband still eats out for lunch 4 days a week, but the kids and I rarely eat out. I'll usually take snacks for us, if we'll be out long, or we'll pickup something at a grocery store...real food, like yogurts, oranges, string cheese, etc. Even before I started losing weight, I never liked feeding my kids fast food and would feel guilty if I did.
Hi - I'd like to join this tread and challenge myself to STOP binging and getting back in control. For the past month, I've been binging on junk food and I am sick and tired of doing it and have decided it has to stop now, today. I was doing so good with my weight loss (had lost 26 pounds on WW) and just lost control and am gaining it back. I am challenging myself to get through the week without a single binge.
Thanks happytobeamomof2. I am so sick and tired of being on this roller coaster. I have promised myself that by the end of the year, I will be at or pretty close to my goal. Congratulations on your awesome weight loss
Hi everyone! Your all doing so well, I hope I can get as far as you guys. I'm on day 4 and I never make it past 7 days. I was tempted to overeat today, and it didn't matter what I ate.(I don't buy peanut butter anymore) I got on here and started posting, the urge is gone!
