Food Addiction Support Group

An individual suffering from a food addiction disorder frequently experiences episodes of uncontrolled eating, or binging, during which they may feel frenzied or out of control. They will eat much more quickly than is normal, and continue to eat even past the point of being uncomfortably full. Binging in this way is generally followed by a period of intense guilt feelings...

Now JLB72 has me inspired. Even though I started my day with coffee and a donut. That donut is going to be lonely in my tummy all by itself. But it is Sunday morning and on Sundays my hubby will always buy donuts. And If I can only have one and leave the rest alone, I guess I can live with that. This time last year it would have already been 3, then I would have had a couple at church, then I would have had a couple in the afternoon. Last week I think I ended up having 2. Today I am only having one. Maybe recovery is made up of many small victories. There will be no "Eureka I'm cured" moment and I will be a lot happier if I stop waiting for it and take courage in the small victories.

Way to go, Marah!!!
And yes, you are absolutely right - recovery is definately comprised of many small victories, that's for sure. Tackle one thing at a time - and it sounds like you are doing a great job on that today!!!

Lunch-Lean Cuisine spinach pizza

One hour bike ride. Felt really good.

I did surrender to an English Toffee, but only one.

Planning spagetti for dinner. The last of the season's tomatoes.

Small victories...that's how I see it. People who have a sickness or injury don't wake up one day completely healed. It takes time, therapy, medicine, whatever.

I'm really glad I stopped BC. I've been happier and haven't had any cravings in a week. I've turned down candy and seconds really easily. Either it's the pill or me thinking it's the pill. Either way works.

TODAY
Ran in the Falmouth 7-mile road race and got an awesome time.
B- cereal/banana
L- pre-race powerbar - coffee after race
just got home and not really hungry - wow :)

Dinner at grandmas and this is usually bad - she's Italian and I'm in "celebration/tired" mood, but I think I can pull through tonight and only have one serving. I'm really wanting that to happen.

I've been binge and overeating free since I came on here three weeks ago; It's so great! But I know a binge-mood will catch me when I least expect it; hopefully I can be string when it does and come on here to get through it.

It was spagetti and a bread stick. Milk.

Followed by a 3 mile walk.

Amyuk, congratulations!! When that urge comes, we will be here for you.

    I have been here before, a long long time ago and now I am back.Forgive me for not just saying what I want to say,even under a triple dose of antidepressants it is still raw and seeping and I am hesitant at revealing it as at least under the bandages around my heart I don,t have to look at how raw and wounded.My child was cleaved from my heart by his own actions. my child of ten,turning eleven...
