i binge ate again yesterday because i had a migraine and was in bed all day. i went to speed way to run an errand. i was hungry so i wanted a sandwich. there weren't any left, so i grabbed a slice of cake, candy, cookies, i binged because i was hungry. i must've been somewhat in my right mind, because i recognized that i needed a r'eal meal, but that didn't stop me from buying and bingeing on the junk food. now, i am scared to eat. all i've had are the two cookies i didn't finish yesterday.
i guess something that i've done to try and control this problem behaviorally (on the days that i can control it) is not letting myself get too hungry and i've been pretty strict about trying to plan my meals so that i don't skip and start feeling impulsive. accordingly, i suggest you go out and eat a real meal. something healthy that you won't feel bad about- maybe a salad or a big bowl of fruit to start.
good luck. this tough moment will pass.
