Diary of a binge eater.

[kel86]

Helloo, so I went to that OA group on Tuesday! There are a few weird things that happen like all the 'readings' or certain prayers, and the holding hands at the end. But in general found it really supportive, and thoroughly enjoyed going through all the reading material they gave me.. very helpful!

I've decided to book the next two weeks off SW as holiday and just focus on normal healthy eating without having to think about synning etc (recently if I use near the full amount it tends to send me on a binge for some reason) and also this will take away the pressure of weigh in. Just going to count the days in a row I can go without binging... day one.

Hope everyone's doing well!

Hannah well done, it must of taken a lot of courage to go to oa. I think a break from sw will do you good. All the stuff I've read it tells you not to diet whilst trying to stop binging. If ya keep with oa keep us informed how ya get on xx

Hi kel I know i won't ever be able to eat my trigger foods again but if I can get to target weight again (& stay there lol) its a small price to pay ;-) & I'm not missing out completely cause I can still eat the no added sugar choc & mikados yay. Try cutting out ur trigger foods & see how u get on ;-) good luck xx

T- tomato pasta bake, ww garlic bread

Hex a- milk & cheese
Hex b- tuna & wheatabix

No snacks.

Syns- wm bread 7, garlic bread 9, mayo 3. Total- 19

I've messed up a bit just realised I've had 3 healthy extras so I've sinned the bread.

Exercise- 1 hour body pump.

For me it would be crisps, chocolate and bread. I may give it a try next week.

Hi Hannah. Well done to you for going Yes, I know it can seem weird at first, which is why we say to give it 6 meetings before deciding if it is for you. I really enjoy the calm and peaceful feeling that the meetings give me. I like the regular readings such as the steps and traditions: it sort of grounds it for me. I like listening to other people sharing - I remember at my first meeting having this sudden realisation that I was NOT the only one who felt like I did and behaved as I did around food.

My triggers which I don't eat are cheese, crisps, sugar, white flour, and fast food.

Hex a- milk & cheese
Hex b- bread & wheatabix

Snacks- apple, full punnet of grapes.
