I had an Xmas party yesterday and I didn’t drink, nor binge after coming home at midnight (I was thinking about grabbing a small snack but resisted!).
I hope that is my start to ‘no binging’ life :pray:t2::pray:t2::pray:t2:

Dude I don’t think that’s helpful advice to post on THE thread where folks are struggling with food restriction and then overeating.
Maybe pick your audience.

@Jana1988 success!! Love to see you check in!
@Scorpn congrats you are making a real effort to be consistent with food and change, that’s great!

Oh Faugxh
Exactly what I thought :upside_down_face:
Although immediately taking the advice as…
“Okay that’s it maybe”

Just ate delicious breakfast.
Stepping on my path.

Love

Good morning to you! Have a beautiful day :desert_island:

I’m glad you’re feeling better today :blush:

Your meal looked very good (yesterday?) With the squid. I’ve never tried it. Is it similar to/ same as calamari? I’ve heard it’s good :blush:

Yes it is like calamari, just a smaller size :octopus:
They have it in a lot of variations here.
Today I will make a soup at home in the afternoon and maybe go out at night to have some tapas (eating outside therapy) :sweat_smile:

It’s 9 am here and after that coffee I will go to the beach and do some Yoga first of all. My body is a bit tight. I could also do hiking, but the weather is just so perfect right now, i can still do that if there are cloudy days :smiley:

Sounds like some really nice options. Yoga on the beach or hiking. :relieved::relieved:

Soup and tapas sound good too :blush:
I hope you enjoy your meals and yoga near the water.

Hi @ToufTouf . I understand that your intentions are good, but @Faugxh is right, it could actually harm someone instead of help :pensive: I am sorry but I will have to ask admin to delete your advice from here from that reason.

Don’t take it badly or personally, please. We’re happy having you here and checking in :blush:

Robin is the only admin, so tagging @ admin will send a notice to him, not to the moderators. The logical way to get our attention is to flag the post you think is in violation of the rules. It was flagged before but that flag was ignored by me. Meaning it could be flagged again and reviewed again. Three flags will automatically hide the post.

I was sooo long time down on the beach…
9 am till 5 pm :ocean::running_woman:t2::woman_in_lotus_position:t2::swimming_woman:t2:

Had breakfast, spelt toast sandwich with cheese, tomato and salad, a persimmon on the beach, a lemon waterice on way back and then I cooked soup with fresh local veggies for dinner.
I am okay with that day and now… Just tired :panda_face:

Ah I see. I was looking for something like this but couldn’t see the tool for flagging the post? :woman_shrugging:t4::see_no_evil:

I can see the flag now, but didn’t see it there before :blush:

I missed the post completely but looked at my email log and I completely agree with you guys : ToufTouf’s advice was completely out of line on so many levels. I’m sorry you guys had to see that. :disappointed:

Checking in after a weekend of close calls and really struggling with disordered eating. My family had a little holiday gathering and I’m drained. Everyone was drinking, drugging, and overeating leaving me feeling very on the outside. I kept myself busy cooking and cleaning for two days to avoid any slips in all three areas but as soon as we sat down to eat dinner last night I started mindlessly filling my plate :persevere:

I overate a bit…not to the point of a binge but definitely overdid it, felt the guilt and the urge to purge. Went outside and sat around the fire instead and narrowly avoided letting the ed have control over me. I haven’t felt that close to a slip in a long time. Our fridge is full of so many leftovers and it’s still a battle in my head today between eating nothing or eating everything.

The shock from this close call is still v palpable through your words. But what I read is: big ass win.

Sounds stressy af. Rest recluse and relaxation will hopefully restore your strenght. :heart:

Also I gotta add: your family was drugging at the Christmas get together? That’s hardcore. Bonus points for you. :white_circle::white_circle::red_circle::large_blue_circle:
