- I have just opened a packet of oatcakes from a store I don't normally shop in and discovered they've added sugar to them. Why? Oatcakes are naturally tasty and certainly don't need added sweetness. They are not sweet biscuits! Sure it's a...
- Hi all. I've been a member of this group for years, but only posted on and off. It seems a bit dead, so hoping more will start posting soon and we can help each other. I've been on a major binge since August and currently trying to wean myself...
- Hi. I'm Mel. New to this particular board, but been on DS for years mainly for eating and depression. I've been on a binge since August last year, but with 2016 kicking in, am trying yet again to get myself under control. I'm a compulsive...
- I seem to have used Christmas as an excuse to start binging again, but was doing so well before this. Guess I need to remember one doesn't need to eat junk constantly to have a good time! Am now struggling to get through the cravings.
- Does anyone else have very specific emotions/feelings that precipitate a binge? I know I do. I wouldn't really describe mine as comfort eating as I can feel down and not do it. I felt suicidal a lot of last year and didn't binge and lost weight! ...
- I know I've done it before. Last year I stopped bingeing and my cravings subsided. I had one takeaway a month, the odd treat, ate slower and enjoyed my food and lost weight. Since the second week of the new year been back to my old ways. ...
- I just want a pill to take the pain away, so I can sleep and have some peace. I feel totally alone, no significant other and no-one apart from my parents who care about me. I did used to have my best friend, but now she's in love, I feel like I've...
- Really my question is do i HAVE to do them to keep a man? I know it depends on the individual, some can't do without them some may be okay with it. I've never done it and i've also never been married or lived with a guy. Had boyfriends obviously...
- Well I've kinda split up with my boyfriend, have problems with my house, am frustrated at work and can't afford to do the degree I long to do, but I didn't binge today. It popped into my mind, but I remembered it solves nothing and I had a bubble...
- I should be able to resist all the time! I'm in the kinda mood where I don;t feel happy with anything in my life, work, house, boyfriend and feeling pretty down. These are usually the top times I turn to food and it's so hard not to, it's like...
- Everyone else around me seems to be dieting and losing weight. Two friends who have always been bigger than me are on a mission and doing really well. I'm obviously pleased for them, just wish I could get a grip on this addiction and do the same. ...
- Anyone else feel they suffer from other forms of obsessive behaviour apart from eating? I'm a bit obsessively tidy at home, constantly tidying, lining things up etc, kinda borderline OCD, and it's just occured to me that this may be related to my...
- Anyone else like this? When i have given myself permission to binge on any food I want, I tend to find I can't decide what to have, but when I'm trying to abstain I know EXACTLY what I'm craving. It's like your desperately searching for that one...
- Anyone else who has put on quite a bit of weight kinda dread seeing old friends/work colleagues/family members etc they've not seen since they put the weight on? I saw an old boss of mine today, known to have a pretty sharp tongue when she wants,...
- A work colleague who is tiny, size 8-10 at the most, said to me yesterday morning "why is it when your trying to cut down your hungry all the time"? I was a bit taken aback and I said to her "who, you are?, your tiny" and she pointed out a...
