confused about binging........

Ive been struggling with binging recently and i wanted to do better/ feel better so ive decided all ill eat is fruit, veg and cereal because i love cereal so much but i only eat multi or whole grain cereal not sugary stuff.

I can eat anything up to about 15 pieces of fruit a day, I limit myself to 3/4 bowls of cereal a day. but i just munch on raw veg and fruit all day, quite lieterally!

Would this be considered as a binge? I thought I was doing well but ive just read something that makes me think im not doing so well.

Can someone comment?

i dont think it is would be a binge, but i think it's unhealthy to tell yourself that you can only eat fruit veggies or cereal. if you can stick to eating a balenced diet and listening to your body when it is full, you will resist the urge to binge on less healthy foods. if you feel the need to eat something, i think it is good that you are having fruits and veggies as your only options. idk if you purge but if you binge on fruit, you probably aren't going to want to purge that from your body.

im alot like you are, i tend to mostly eat fruits, veggies, multi and whole grain foods. i dont eat much either. do you take vitamins, becuase you arent getting enough of nutrients into your body with just those. um what do you usualy drink daily? i drink mostly green tea and some of my own fruit juice mixes.
do you feel weak alot or anything like that? i havent. i have lots of energy. do you feel overall okay? i am borderline anorexic. i just recently been craving liek chocolate and i think i binge by only eating few pieces. i wanted to purge myself and still do, but so far havent. anyways just ask yourslef do you feel okay?
