I have never posted on this forum, but am a binge eater. I really need to get this under control. I have never told anyone about my binge eating until recently when I opened up to my therapist. We are working on this in therapy, but I also need a lot of support outside of that. I did try OA on the phone, but it really just wasn't for me. I believe in a higher power, but all this leave it solely up to the "higher power" really freaked me out.

I do have support from my husband, but sometimes it's tough love...so, I figured you ladies would be able to be my support when I need it as you probably better understand me.

My last binge was on Monday. I did great yesterday and commit to not binge for the rest of the day and if I have the urge, then I will first ask myself how I am feeling and why do I want to binge...is it out of boredom, frustration, anxiety, etc...

Ok, well thanks for letting me vent and I look forward to getting to know you all.

Good luck LizzieBee! We're here for you!

Good for you for opening up and admitting that you are a binge eater. It's not an easy thing to say and to be honest, until I found 3FCs I wasn't as comfortable admitting a lot of things about my eating habits. But as I saw others had the same problems, I didn't feel so odd and alone about it.

I also binge eat and struggle to control it so I empathize with you. Glad you're here talking about it and we're here for you.

thanks ladies!

Hi Lizzie Bee,
thanks so much for sharing with us, we are all here for support, I really love this community because everyone is so supportive and positive, just reading other people's tips and experiences has helped me out a lot, it really helps to know that you are not alone. I know that we are all working on learning, growing and in some cases healing. (emotionally)

LizzieBee- I am a binge eater as well. We can help support each other. Thanks for sharing!!
