Weight-Loss No binge, no purge - one day at at time.

Weight-Loss
No binging today and no urge .
I would perhaps like to overeat but I’m keeping to plan .
What kind of cravings are you having Rob .
Lama hope today was better
 
Good for you Petal, any day without a binge is a good day. LaMa, I think you did better today too. LaMa, I know I eat fewer calories than many dieters, but if you look up a very-low-calorie diet (VLCD) its less. Something in the 500 to 800 calorie per day range. Maybe you can call mine the kind of super low calorie diet (KSLCD)?

The usual, its just a strong urge to eat more, a lot more. Not of anything in particular just food. That's my usual anyway.

Today the urges were strong, and I ate a whole lot of greenery as a result. Probably too much broccoli and lettuce for dinner, I feel really full right now. My calories were fine, but I consumed a lot of fiber. Is that a binge? I hope not, but it kind of felt like one.

Let's not binge tomorrow.
 
I'd say it depends on your eating speed. If you were stuffing your face it may have been a binge even if it was something healthy. If you eat them slowly I don't think non-starchy veggies count as a binge regardless of the amount.
 
Thanks LaMa, and I did probably eat too quickly, it is interesting those of us who most often post here always seem to have trouble defining just what a binge is. Maybe that's a good thing, we are more conscious of what we eat.

No binge today, and I did better, no borderline eating either. But I did have some of the urges this afternoon, I wanted to eat more.

Let's now binge tomorrow.
 
Lol let’s hope not LaMa .
For me a binge is shoving food in without tasting it . Eating quickly and anything I can get my hands on . I think I have been overeating on some stuff recently . That I am working on reigning back in .
is it complacency I wonder ?

Sorry for the spelling error, perhaps it was a Freudian slip.

Petal, you definition of a binge makes sense, and I sure remember doing that. Nothing I have done recently comes close, so I guess that's progress.

Sounds like just the opposite to me, you are far from complacent.

No binge here today, but this evening I was quite tempted, so I started writing here and now the urges are subsiding. I know the urges are getting less and less frequent, but I kind of doubt they will ever go away completely. I think I can live with that.

Lets not binge tomorrow!
 
I agree with your definition, Petal. Good job writing instead of biting, Rob! Having those urges less frequently is a victory in itself.
Let's not binge today!
 
No binge here today, I did have some urges about 11 am, so I went out and did some needed shopping, that helped.

Let's not binge tomorrow.
 
Had an excellent diet day yesterday and no urge to binge.

Well done everyone else , let's not binge this weekend

Ugh I am an emotional eater as well. I visited my parents today and we had a disagreement which got me upset. Not only did it mentally/physically exhaust me but I wanted to reach out to chocolate. Instead, I forced myself to take a nap, and ate some food before heading out to the dollar store to "buy chocolate". Luckily, talked myself out of chocolate and a binge. It is very difficult to deal with emotions.

Yes, I sometimes can overeat as well. Sometimes even the "moderately healthy" stuff can pack on the lbs. However, there is always tomorrow, we can always be better than we were yesterday :)

Good for you Petal, no binge is a good thing.

Didn't know the path one, is that Irish or UK also? From TV and movies y'all probably know most of our language quirks, will try a couple you might not.

Rarer than hen's teeth, something that is quite uncommon. My grandparents and parents said it, me not so much.

Hamaknocker a word used to describe something remarkable, usually a person on an animal. When looking at kids playing wildly you might say "look at those little hamaknockers" or when seeing a particularly large alligator, "look at that hamaknocker". I believe this one is very limited, the only place I ever heard it was in a small part of North Florida, the part I used to live in. I didn't learn it growing up, but do now use it occasionally.

I did not binge today, and was not very tempted. I stayed very busy, which helps.

Lets not binge tomorrow.

I did binge today. And then I stopped. Tomorrow I'll try not to start.

Hope you stopped before getting to far into it, stopping is good. Not starting will be even better.

Good for you Petal, no binge and no urge, doesn't get any better than that.

Hey, Glenis, welcome I haven't seen you before. Have you managed to stop bingeing?

No binge here today, and no big urges, a good day.

Let's not binge tomorrow.
 
lama hope today is better . Welcome Glenis .
Rib glad you doing good !

no binge here and no urge either . When I am eating properly and on plan I don’t have those urges .
 
Good for you Petal, sounds like you have found a great plan.

How goes it LaMa?

No binge here today, I was too busy to think much about food so no urges either.

Let's not binge tomorrow.
