What should i do about this?! i need help!?
Posted by adminSep 6
I eat good for monday to friday..then saturday and sunday roll around and i binge..nearly every weekend for the past month.(ive gained like 10lbs doing this but i needed to gain cuz i was severly underweight..5ft 7inch and only 92lbs, yes i was anorexic)
everytime i binge now, its ALWAYS on WhiteRice, Honey, Chocolate, Dried fish, Nuts, yogurt and…yeah thats about it. i mean i SERIOUSLY binge. Ill eat until im a little more than full..stop for the next few hours, go out to eat with my Dad sometimes and end up eating not too much but its usually calorie filled (he Does not know i do this).
I dont understand why i always binge on Rice and Honey..and I know thats what has contributed to my weight gain. i needed to gain weight so i started to eat it. but now it seems if i get near it i cant stop.
What should i do to stop this? ive already reached my goal of gaining 10lbs. im 105lbs now..still a little too small but not in the danger zone.
(i noticed i do it and i know that there are TONES of calories but i dont care, i keep going back for more.)
Any idea on how to help me?

First of all, its great that your recovering from your anorexia and i wish you luck. I have this same problem, however i am trying to lose weight because i used to be severely overweight and this bingeing is ruining my hard work. Even though its good that your gaining weight, i understand why this habit is a problem. One thing i did that actually helped was pack my lunch in the morning like i am going to school (even though im on summer break). It helps me because ive realized that while im cooking something, i eat everything around me too. When i have my lunch made already, it prevents that. Another tip is to do something productive, thats far away from your kitchen. Even being near the kitchen may cause the slightest bit of temptation. Try taking up a new hobby to distract you from bingeing. Im really into crafts and that helped me alot. I really hoped this helped and again good luck on your recovery!
