And here is a new thread for those who commit to not bingeing in July.
By bingeing we mean the unplanned eating of a lot of calories --by the thousand/s-- in a short time, not being able to stop till we run out of food or feel sick. It is an eating disorder, not like overeating or like a splurge, and it does not end in purging.
Join us in our journey! We want to learn to control these episodes!

I would really like to commit to this in July. June wasn't a good month for me and I gained 10 lbs. Thanks for starting this thread.

I'm in! Good luck to all.

I'm in too! :-) lets do it!

This is a very clear and true definition of bingeing -it really sets the boundaries and confirms that I have an eating disorder Thanks Inglesita .

I'm in and taking it one day at a time............ just made it through day 1

I am in - just to clarify - I can binge on v low calorie items, such as celery and salsa. They may not add up to many calories - I recognize that it is emotional eating, nonetheless. I commit to no binges of any sort in July.

Count me in as well. I haven't had massive binges in a long time, but this month I've had several episodes in which my control slipped. Back in the saddle!

F.

Yes!!!!

I'm in! I planned to do this for June, but failed 5 or 6 times... When I binge, I don't binge on a 'few' thousand calories... it's a full day that ends between 7,000-10,000 calories, and yes I get extremely sick. I need so much strength for July, I know I can do this!

Hi everyone!

So, I didn't do so great in June. It wasn't totally binge free, I had a few major binges. I've now been 5 days on track and am looking forward to taking this momentum into July!

We've got this!

I'm in for sure. I've so been wanting to binge...especially on something sweet or bread/ pasta.

Guess I don't fit in to the true binger definition. However I will follow this thread with interest as I feel like one. It really is a mental game and I need to work on not trying to be perfect, maybe I should start a thread on that:-)! I do hope you all find what you need.

It is great to be with you on this, people! My last binge was on sweets on New Year's Eve, so today I am celebrating six months without binges. Anyway, I don't think I have recovered. The very fact I keep opening these threads and logging everything I eat and counting calories speaks about disordered eating --not an eating disorder, but some issue with eating. I am very much afraid of slipping back into old unhealthy habits, as I always did in the past. Let's help one another get to August being healthier and saner!

Im 3 months binge free; hoping to keep going!!!

i'd like to give this a shot-- i have days where i'd just shove food in my mouth even though i'm not hungry.
