Hello,

I'm Laney, I'm 42 years old single (but looking!) and I've got a pretty big issue with binge eating. I've been doing it for 30 years!

I'm looking for other binge eaters out there who are not into the diet mentality. I eat healthy and exercise most of the time, I know that if I could just cut out bingeing, my weight would stabilize. Anyone out there like me? I could really use a buddy!

hi laney
there are lots of threads with advice and support about binge eating here. I too have binged for the past 25 years and never thought that I would be able to break the cycle. However since joining 3fc in january I have managed to lose 28lbs but more importantly I have not binged for 85 days. I dont know why this has worked when all else has failed but visiting the site daily and realising that I am not the only one with this problem has given me a tremendous boost of self esteem and will power. When I binged I felt out of control and isolated, withdrawing myself from friends and family and social situations. Now I feel supported and encouraged and surrounded by people who actually understand me.
I hope that you find this site to be as supportive in helping you to control your eating

In addition to the wonderful support you'll get on the forum about binge eating. Here's a blog from a lady who tackles that topic. She had a problem to and has been pretty darned successful!
