Checking-in with yesterdayās numbersā¦
I binged again yesterday morning, by having breakfast x3. I also had an extra sandwich late last night. I hate how Iām feeling at the moment. I donāt know how Iām eating so much and still feeling insatiably hungry, itās just like alcohol, cocaine, and vaping; the more I have, the more I want, and Iām axious by having food in my fridge. Iāve gained 8lbs too and feel bigger than ever. I wish I knew what was going on with me under the surface, driving me to binge. Iām so disconnected from my emotions and feelings, Iām just extremely anxious and depressed all the time, thatās as far as my awareness goes.

Iām sure there is a lot going on under the surface and that youāre coping w by the binges.
On the physical level tho, I think youāre also inexperienced regarding what foods are filling and will keep you full, cos you couldnāt have them for so long. So that in the long run you could even begin to do what say acromouse is doing and begin to connect w your hunger and other feelings again.
Sandwiches and toast for me are ātriggerā foods as well or they would be if I ate them. Same as crisps for me, I just want more, Iāll never get full by eating soft bread and mayo or cream cheese (tho itās nice, ofc!)
Hard foods (I call them, chewy, bulky), wholegrain and lots and lots of protein keep me full. If I have room in my belly or doing a lower food day, vegetable soups or steamed veggies.
Itās not only the psyche, itās also the nutrition itself that is making things hard for you atm I think. Hoping you find something to break the circle very soon!

Mind is in f**k-it mode, and wants to get rid of the remaining groceries as quickly as possible so we can end this experiment. I have learned that I still cannot control myself around real food, and that having food in my fridge makes me pre-occupied and anxious.
I still have a very healthy fear of what my blood glucose levels would be after one of my usual binges, with unhealthy food and sugar etc, so I am hoping that this will prevent me from going to any shops or bingeing like I was before.
I just really hope thereās not too long to wait until I start having sessions with the psychiatrist again.

Thereās nothing left to binge now. Last night wasnāt too bad but I still class it as a binge. Things should improve now.

Itās a real struggle this eating disorder. I feel all of you guys, Iām struggling too.
Today I was thinking about how I used to do intermediate fasting not a long time ago. My last food had to be before 8pm. It was the only thing which worked for me until I slipped and never got back. Not sure why? Maybe because itās more comfortable to just give in to my cravings, despite knowing that itās just short term pleasure and that Iāll feel defeated and not good on the long run (physically and mentally).
Itās every day that I wake up with this awful feeling after the previous night binge and itās every day when I feel like this when I make all the promises how today will be different. I always look sceptically on them, because of the experience built up for so long, knowing I never keep them. But thereās also this small hope that maybe today is the dayā¦
Sometimes I look at the date and say to myself: āThis could be a good day to start!ā Like today. 1st of June sounds cool, doesnāt it? Iād remember the day which has changed my life and eating habits for good.
Who knows how today will go. So far so good. But itās the evening what I struggle with the most. I will try. Every day I will try. I will not give up

It feels like way longer ago that I last had junk food. Had some cravings today but they can FRO. The shops have just closed so Iām safe.
I went for a walk for the first time in a while today.

Good morning everyone.
So 1st of June 2024 will not mark for me a day when I stopped binging. And I was so close! 
However. Now weāre in a new day. And who knows - maybe 2nd June is The day! 
I like even numbers better anyway 
6 hours no binging

@CATMANCAM I really am impressed by your days without junk food. Do you think eating real food had something to do with that?
@Jana1988 Donāt give up hope friend. Has there been anything in the past besides IF that has helped you with your ED?

The Brain over Binge podcast and especially the book have put me in a really new mindset about overeating/bingeing. Letās see how this goes.
