New from Portland

  • Hi there,

    I'm a stay at home mom from Portland and I'm approximately 60 lbs overweight. For me that's a lot since I'm barely 5'2". I'm an overeater. It seems like this is something I could do by sticking to a diet, but I'm a serious binger. I hide my binging from my family by waiting until everyone is in the living room or sneaking food in my laundry room and eat while I work on clothes. If it's sugar, I binge. Its like I can't stop myself.

    I'm desperate to eat better and take care of myself. I'm miserable. It's like the sugar is poison and I don't know how to stop poisoning myself, if that makes sense. So, I'm trying prayer. I'm actually going to ask God for the strength to beat this. I want to be healthy for my kids and attractive for my husband. I want to be proud of me!

  • Welcome!! We are glad to have you! <3

    I've had problems binge eating & hiding it also, so I know how that feels... horrible! There is a spot to post about binge eating, or about any type of diet plan you'd like to try or just for general support.

    I just started a 30 day challenge chat if you'd like to join! :

  • Hello there and welcome! There seem to be a lot of Oregonians on this site (unless you're from Maine, lol).

    A lot of people have difficulty with binging, myself included, but this site is really great for finding support and new ways of controlling it.

    Good luck.
  • Here is the part of the site specific to binge eating...
