I've had a really bad couple of days at home. It's really unsettled here. Lots of arguements. My Mum has kicked her partner out the house now. But instead of going down my usual route of not eating to make myself feel better, I've gone all the other way.
Restricting takes too long and just isn't going to give me that rush that binging does. I went out and brought a load of binge food this morning. Trouble is, I'm eating it, and having no oppertunity to purge. I've never done this before. I'm comforting myself with the thought that, I've lost weight over the past couple of days, so if I have a binge weekend and put it all on. I can just lose it again next week. This is a really dangerous cycle to get into but I'm just not sure how else to cope!
I know what i'm doing but I cant stop myself :(

All I can say is that I'm glad you don't have the opportunity to purge and I beg you to not even start this dangerous behavior. Your body has been through hell and back and can't take any more abuse. Look at it this way, did the binging help in any way with your problems. Didn't think so. You probably feel even worse than before. Let your mom fight her own battles. You have enough to deal with.

My 6mo twin DD's are EBF and just started rice cereal on the first. Everything has been going fine except this morning one of them had a diaper rash (lots of redness around her anus). I read this as one of the signs of an allergy. BUT I did just buy a different brand diaper yesterday (which they have used randomly before w/no issues). Do you think its the cereal or the diaper? Im ready to start...
