I see this thread as a safe place to talk about binges, to support each other, and to learn to stop bingeing. I tried Debbie's "eats'' thread that made me binge like there was no tomorrow because I wanted to "eat right" and "be good." That thread triggered me big time. Well, here I am going to post whatever comes to my mouth, like a neutral observer without any judgment.

Being a binge eater is like being an alcoholic. I notice that people talk a lot about a hangover, or "the morning after" the binge, about feeling bloated and sick, but almost never about the actual binge... even in blogs it remains a dark secret.

Dark secrets die when the light is shone on them. Time to face the monster.
