I bought a 4 1/2 pound bag of candy to give out at Halloween and ate the entire thing. I am more and more out of control (no purging..but big time binging). I need to get a handle on this. Today I almost finished a whole batch of brownies. I am so sick and disgusted....UGH!!!!!!

I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
Advice given to me (which I try to follow but am not always successful at)is to stick to fresh stuff, usually found around the outer edges of the supermarket. The packaged foods (fattening stuff) is usually found in the inner isles.
I try to shop around the outer edges. Maybe this can help. As for snacking, once you start it's difficult to stop - I know, because I do the same.
Please don't punish yourself too much, just think of this as a momentarily relapse and pick yourself up and start over again, without too high an expectation.

I would agree - don't buy too many things and don't keep much in your house. Have only enough food for 2 days or so in the fridge... kinda helps.
Don't despare. You must feel awfully sick. Hope you are better tomorrow.
When I put my sensible head on though, I know to just take it as a reminder notto keep sweet stuff in the house...I've learnt from my mistake and rather than go out and buy more, or face the kids empty-handed tomorrow, I have decided to call and see a friend for a few hours instead.
I know that's probably not much help, but just wanted you to know that you're not alone.
