Hi chickies!! 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. This is a positive thread, so I have to enforce the "be careful about being too negative" rule. We are here to share our feelings and to encourage and inspire each other. 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!!

If anyone has any questions or concerns, or you just need to talk privately, don't hestitate to PM me.

Let's have an awesome week!!

Bleh. I was horrible this weekend so it is back to day ONE for me today

Hello All,

I'm happy to say I'm on day four today (count 'em). I missed going to the gym at noon, because I'm T-I-R-E-D, but if all goes well I may be able to wake up and go after work.

Chin up Leigh ! It'll be better today; I'm sure of it!


Hope everyone has a great afternoon.

It's ok, Leigh. It happens to everyone. Just get back on the horse.

Good job, wistful.

I am on day 8.

Don't worry, Leigh. Being accountable and getting back on track is what's important. We all have our bad days. *hugs*

For the first time in a very, very long time, I bought a box of Timbits (Canadian for donut holes) on my way to a playdate and did not eat a single one. They sat on the table and I let everyone else polish them off.

What's more startling is that I had no desire to have one. None whatsoever. Wow. I don't think that's ever happened before. I would normally binge and eat an entire box. How I got from there to not wanting a single one is beyond me.

I'm now sitting here eating cherries. A much healthier alternative. Yay!

Yesterday I made it, I resisted the craving, after several weeks of autodestructive behaviours =) So... 1 day for me!

Day 18, and feeling a little struggly..

Day 3. Going to cinema tonight, taking carrot sticks with me so I have no excuses.

Stay strong all

Good Morning!

Day 8 WardHog!!! You go Girl!

Welcome Diva... glad to have you! The more Divas the better I say .
Welcome Epica!
Mongoose, hope you make it through the rough time, because day 18 sounds great! Hang in there


I did overeat yesterday (TOM and I just hit the couch for a day), but I don't think it fell into the binging category. On the days I overeat, I feel guilty (and bad and sad and mad), but it definitely isn't the same thing as binging. I guess I need to go ahead and give myself credit where credit is due. Soo, that make it day six for me

does anyone have any advice on how to avoid binging? I am so weak!!!! I have no will power, how do you get some?

Day 2 for me!

I'm sorry, Vak. Good job getting right back to it, though.

My husband and I had a huge fight and I want to eat everything in the house because I am mad and hurt, but I am just not hungry for anything. Hopefully it will blow over. I am on day 11.

Day 19...

Personally I can't always depend on my willpower either. To prepare for those times that willpower escapes us, it's a good idea to remove all possible binge foods from your home. You'll think about them much less.

Went to fair yesterday and had:

Nachos
fried oreo
bite of fried white castle burger
funnel cake

But you know I had been planning for this, allowing it. Doing super well so I'm not bummed about it. Back on track!
