Please help - I'm binging as we speak!!?

Question

I told myself that since today is my stepfathers birthday I wouldn't care about what I ate. I thought I had it under control and I don't. Here's what I had:

breakfast: oatmeal

lunch: 2 egg whites and banana

now heres where i messed up..

dinner: meat pattie (empanada, not a burger pattie) and rice & beans but it had chorizo and vienna sausage and everything. wasnt just white rice and beans.

dessert: slice of ice cream cake and bites of my sisters as well.

out come the snacks, so far i've had 2 small slices of french bread with fresh mozzarella (as well as mozzarella by itself), tons of carrots & broccoli, some bourbon chicken snack things from tyson, ughh i cant stop, i haven't eaten things like this in a while, i'm going crazy on everything! i know for a fact i'll be on the treadmill tonight, but I still can't control myself! should I just let myself go today and keep snacking with everyone or deprive myself? I'm not normally a light eater but I don't normally eat ice cream or anything SUPER fattening.

PLEASE HELP.

p.s. i'm not overweight, i was underweight last month, gained 5 pounds. i lose weight quick. which only means the weight will come right back. i really need help..

Answer 1

I go through the "binging phase" as well. What I like to do is look at a picture of myself when I was happy. Then I say, "Why I am doing this to myself?"  Binging is not going to make me feel happy, quite the opposite. I usually binge when I am avoiding something or get into an all or nothing attitude. Try and tell yourself that you are in control and that binging is going to make you feel terrible about yourself. Take care!

Answer 2

Answer 3

Soooo, the question was how to stop eating?

Assuming that's the case, just go for a walk. Get yourself away from food for a while.

Answer 4

Enjoy yourself.  Eat what you want to eat.  It is a special day.  Why are you stressing so much about it.  One day in the overall scheme of things is no big deal.  Just go back to normal tomorrow.  One day makes absolutely no difference.
