Day 555 : No binge today.
Day 120 : No coffee today.
Checking in
I feel like I binged during supper since I started keto I havenāt binged in 4 days. Not having sugar and eating low carb has really cut my cravings to eat and overeat I havenāt had to hide food or feel sick. Tonight I put everything into the Carb Manager app. I have a set amount of calories per day I eat and a limit for my net carbs (the carbs I was under so that isnāt an issue, but I was way over my calories). I ate 1 extra pork chop today than I wanted to eat. And then I had to assess why I ate it. I was full at 2 but I have been irritable today for a variety of reasons so I think I binged on meat (which is sort of a new one for me lol) due to my emotions. But I canāt eat what Iād normally binge on soooā¦ I have been doing well tho. So I wonāt beat myself up. Just irritated with myself I guess. Would u all consider this a binge?
Personally no I would not consider it a binge. For me thereās a big difference between a bit of overeating and an all out binge. When I binge I plow through whatever food is available and keep looking for more until I make myself sick.
Glad to hear youāre feeling good on keto otherwise!
I hear what ur saying and I appreciate ur comment. I used to do what u described with carbs snd sweetsā¦ it was bad I did it often times due to emotions etc. I guess I think ur right tho, this was just emotional over eating. Thanks for ur insight
I think the biggest thing now is just keep pushing forward. Donāt let any guilt from a bit of overeating cause you to turn to restricting or trying to balance out those calories. Beyond just ānot bingingā, itās about establishing a better relationship with food and allowing ourselves to eat and fuel our bodies!

Ending day 10 of no binging! But I really wanted to today for some reason. I had to distract myself with tasks around the apartment and try to stay out of the kitchen. I manged to get thru it. Just need to go to bed and end the day. Late night eating is also an issue of mine. Will get thru it
Well done! Day 11 today for me. Husband went to Costco today, so gonna have to be strong!
Grocery days are THE hardest! I feel u on this one. Hoping the rest of ur day goes well tho! U can do this!
This is something I definitely need to work on. I hate grocery shopping because then I just eat more it feels like. But then I eat fast food and thats still unhealthy yet I feel I gain less weight I donāt know honestly. I used to binge eat and purge, chew and spit, theses days I do none. I just need to practice some damn self control. Because one bag of Reeseās pieces is to many and a thousand is never enough damnit. I feel myself gaining weight and I definitely need to get it under control nothing would be worse than to be clean and miserable in my own skin. I went all day without eating and itās 3am here and just had del taco. I convinced myself it was ok lol. Iām rambling and glad to see some familiar people have this issue as well . Sucks but cool at the same time.
Congrats on youāre accomplishments keep it up
Thank you!
Yes I have a 1 yr old son thats with the grandmother I have no contact with but will soon since Iām finally getting it together. I feel you thatās definitely an event I wouldnāt want to experience lol. I used to find grocery shopping early morning almost therapeutic but not no more š¤·. Thatās a good idea Iām moving into my new spot tomorrow so maybe Iāll start that as my new beginning. Meal prepping would definitely help. I just didnāt feel comfortable cooking in my roomates house but now that Iām moving in with an uncle Iāll probably be more comfortable to meal prep. in the end itās not so much the process of shopping itās the fact that i just want to eat all the food I buy be like $200 of groceryās almost gone in a week probably lol
Day 561 : No binge today.
Day 126 : No coffee today.
Wow I can relate to this. Carbs and sugary candy is brutal for me. I would eat and not stop. Sometimes feeling sick. I do find that my new way of eating helps (no sugar and low carb) as I havenāt binged. BUTā¦ I wanted to make a chocolate Keto brownie Desert and decided I shouldnt for this reason. It is healthier but not when I could potentially eat the whole damn tray.
