Hang in there. I too started working on my BED before I really had come to terms with the fact that that’s what I’ve been doing my whole life, by IF and I will tell you the binge moments have almost gone by the wayside. I am much more conscious of what I am doing and what drives me to binge. If I can do this, so can you. I know how you are feeling. You get to start over anew tomorrow so let that be your hope right there. You’ve got this.
Be kind to yourself. Look at the fact that you’ve actively taken steps, healthier steps, to cope by sharing your experience here, by recognizing and identifying it was your feelings that made you binge, and the realization that nobody is perfect. Today is a new day, tomorrow is a new day. Hang in there, and remember black and white is how we may feel at times, but life is oh so full of different shades!
You got this! 🙌🏼
I’m just starting with 16:8 IM so I don’t necessarily know much, but I walk when I’m tempted to stress-eat. Walk and listen to a podcast that will fill your brain with something interesting.
Don’t know if it will work for you, but it’s essentially something you can try with no risk. It’s not going to magically cure a disorder, I’m sure, but it really works for me. And I drink carbonated water with fresh lime squeezed into it when I get home. Very satisfying.
