i have been struggling with binge eating for a while now and want to STOP! there have been so many times where i have said im going to diet and exercise, but it will only last for a day or two. Im sure you all know how this can affect you and make you depressed, so im asking for some motivation to get my butt in gear! I would love to start a plan, (i think by calling it a diet it wont work as well) and i would love to have someone to join me!

the only thing i will say to help u is that perhaps the binge eating is due to underlying issues?perhaps if u sort them out u cud then start a diet in a healthy manner
does that make sense?

Make a reasonable mealplan for each day and only shop to have just that much food in the house. I know that might be time consuming.
And maybe get an exercise buddy so you kind of have to go.

    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...
