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...
Okay perhaps I've hit the rock bottom of I dont care anymore!!! Im so angry right now!!! Im so freakin tired of doing so well for so many days and then just throwing it away! And of course once I do that..to get back on track is just too much. I just cant do it not right away. NO NO I must binge for at least 4-5 days until Im so disgusted with myself that I can't even look at myself in the mirror. Then and only then its restricting... until I lose it again.. why even bother anymore. There is nothing I can think of to tell myself come tomorrow morning that will make any thing better. Maybe I can try again for another 12-14 days until the next week that it all just falls apart. I cant handle anymore failing and trying. This endless circle is making me crazy!! I just dont know what to think anymore. Any advice would be great.

I know exactly how you feel. I can understand the feeling of when you go a day or two without binging and you feel really good, and then the day you binge its like you just fall apart and want to give up forever. Its the most awful feeling in the world bc it makes you feel like such a failure. I wish I could give you a better response to this post but I am in the same exact boat as you. If you ever need anyone to talk to, I'm here :)

I am exactly the same. I am rock bottom at the moment too which just leads to more days of binging. The only thing that gets me through is that I tell myself I have been here a hundread times before but Ive got through it a hundread times and can get through it again! I just have to wait for that magic day where I wake up and think "right, today I can do it", but until that day comes, I keep myself in my own little bubble and eat and hide away. Its awful, but there is light at the end of the tunnel. It just depends when the tunnel ends as to when we begin to feel better.

looks like we are all there with you lkc!! i just try to remember that just because i ate that whole pizza my day isn't completely ruined, i don't need to eat the whole box of brownies too just because i feel like i've ruined it. slowly it has begun to work so my binges are containing less and less food. but i'm completely with you that sometimes the ugly cycle of success and failure makes it hard to even want to keep trying. we're here for you!

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...
