Well, it's official... those 3 lids of peanuts did not cause me to be sick for 3 entired days... especially the exhaustion.... I musta caught something visiting my friend in the hospital last week, everytime I go to the hospital, I end up sick.

So, I'm finally getting to respond to some of the posts... a bit late

Julie Nope, don't talk about my binges, once in a while I will binge in front of someone, but very rarely... and never an all out binge.

Tatiana idk why I was eating them... my daughter was snacking on them... they were there, and yeah, I'm taking vit/min supplements... I think it was more of a texture thing, I love to crunch!

Kama I think that 6 cookies could be a binge, especially if it's several times a day... kind of slowly working on the whole package... I think that the smaller you get, the less food it takes to be a binge cuz the less food you need in general

Debbie My trigger times are BEING TIRED that's my all time #1 by far! The others are when I have no "me" time, or have been doing to much for others and not getting anything for myself... like I "deserve" to treat myself (lol, and we all know what a treat a binge is...especially the next day!) and, like you, the rebellious thing, if someone comments on my weight, size, portions, whatever... I eat to "show them" (uh huh... show them what? that they are right? duh )

The consequences are weight gain, feeling like crap, physically, guilt sometimes (but I'm not too big on guilt, cuz after all, I "deserve" those treats) isolation... if I'm wanting to binge I gotta get away from ppl so I can. My best (worst) thing... going on a food run (alone) I'll hit one place, eat that in the car, ditch the evidence, get food from the place we're getting from, and eat that with the group/family... that way the receipt matches what "we" ordered

Dara Yep! 1 container=1 serving (not so much now... I count, measure, portion... but I still do the multiply the cal per serving by the # of servings... to see if I can eat from the container... knowing that it will more likely than not be single serve... but so far, I've been doing very well in getting my portion and getting away from the container. I don't really count the days... only the first couple... takes me about 3 days to get back on track after a binge, to where I'm not thinking constantly about eating what/where/when/how much...

Rachel Sounds like your binge trigger is something smooth that you can dig your spoon into over and over... I'm a big cruncher... dry cereal rocks!

Well, I feel more caught up now, and I'm feeling pretty decent today, although I'm bloated... I think maybe due to my tummy troubles... I'm down a pound and up a size the last 3 days!
