One thing that stricks me as I read your heartfelt posts is that this struggle with binge eating is not just for people who are obese... It is almost comforting to know that "skinny" girls are out there too who have the same self-talk and binging issues as us "big" girls do.

Thank you all for being brave enough to admit you have an eating disorder and for sharing your triumphs and tough-days

Day 3! I'm so excited!

Hi, everyone! I think that this is where I should be--I've been fat and I've been thin but I've always been a binger. Nights are the hardest. (No surprise there.) So congrats to all of you who are doing so well, and I'll be happy to have one day behind me tomorrow.

Made it through Day 1. Day 2 seems to be going really well.

First day of class today, busy busy. Holding strong on day 72, feeling really good about the not bingeing. I've been looking forward today to coming home and cooking a nice, healthy dinner, which is a complete change from the normal eagerness to get home to binge. It is exhausting, though!

Day 2 for me.

I've made it 15 days! I am SO EXCITED -- I woke up today and realized "wow, I've made it half a month! I can totally make it a whole month!" I can feel the difference, too, my snug winter coat is no longer quite as snug

RIGHT NOW: Trying to MAINTAIN day 6 and not cave due to 2 things that are really stressing me out. . . . picturing Richard Simmons saying "food will not solve your problems."
(He was on discovery health channel one time)

Lol. I saw him on TV not too long ago. He is looking older..... but still wearing his short shorts!

I almost made it 9 days but then I binged yesterday. I managed to stop myself before it got TOO out of control though and now today is going extremely well. I'm still proud that I made it 8 days binge-free because that's longer than I've been in quite a while. Here's to making it longer this time!

Day 3 down and on to Day 4. I was so busy yesterday that I barely ate. Not good. I will be more careful today.

RE: Richard Simmons:

I know, so funny! He really seems to care about his clients though.

Day 7 today! I was good yesterday calorie wise but did not work out....

day 3!

I did really well yesterday! I almost binged this morning, but I held strong. I ate a scone that my boss offered me and felt like I'd screwed up and might as well binge, but I stopped myself! Maybe it's not the healthiest breakfast but one scone is not a binge, especially since I was hungry when I ate it.
