Venting

Thank you so much. i think many people over eat for a number of reasons. This is just how my habits started. It has been rough but i would like to take control over this addiction and be a better me. I have let my weight hold me back from so much and I am tired of life passing me by.

Sadly, I know exactly what you mean about food being like a drug. That was a very brave thing to post, thank you. We can do this, though, I know we can. The healthy way. Stay strong!!

That' what this program is for!! Scroll through the blogs and find someone in a similar situation and send a friend request. The beauty of this site is every one is striving for essentially the same thing. Don't give up. Find your support system here. :)

It does help.... I also hide my binge eating from people. For the longest time my mother couldn't understand how I gain so much weight so fast. I finally was honest with her about my eating.

I think I am right with you. I spend so many hours watching amazing weight loss stories on youtube and now instead of feeling motivated to get out there and eat right I just get depressed and frustrated that I will never have success. I am really good at planning a diet and exercise regime but have no motivation to even start. Instead I have a gym membership with dust on it and about 100lbs to lose. I wake up at night so upset all I want to do is eat. I eat at night to hide it from my husband so he doesn't know why I am so overweight. I hope it helps to know there are others out there who may not be going though exactly the same thing (as we are all different) but you are definitly not alone.

I thought that if i wrote things down that my binge festival would calm down. It has somewhat but for some reason I am dependent on it when I am upset or overwhelmed.

Hello fellow binger. Im a stress binger I could follow my diet on the weekdays where the routine rarley got messed with but then the weekend with the family all there, kids home all day and up my rear ect ect had me eating close to or over 4000 cal per day. Never gained too much weight but I never lost it either. Keeping this running food journal on fitclick has really helped me think about it before I eat it. My weekends are still 5-600 over my weekdays but that's still a 4000 calorie savings per week.
