    I just joined here and this is my first post. It is so reassuring to know that there are other people struggling with the same problem that I struggle with every day.

    I need help or advice.
    I can usually detect when a binge is coming on. I know what I need to do to stop it. Distract myself, do something relaxing, get out of the house, etc.... But when it comes down to actually DOING these things, I just.. don't.

    It's like my hands get a mind of their own and I lose all control. The worst part is the guilt I feel during and after my binge. Mainly because 9 out of 10 times, I knew it was going to happen and it was my responsibilty to stop it.

    HI piggiepie: welcome to the forum.
    There is lots of good advice in Andrew's free newsletters and also in his links at the bottom of the page. Keep posting in your journal and people will be able to comment and support you. A journal is great for trying to get to any emotional and physical roots of why your body wants to overeat.

    hi piggiepie. i hear you. i just finished a binge that i could have easily avoided. i bought 2 packs of my favorite cookies supposedly for a party and i ended up eating the whole 2 boxes. my brain told me not to buy them and dont go near them and they are bad for the cholestoral but i caved in anyway. i feel weak and a loser and physically sick, after eating so much. thank god i can write about and try to understand what made me do it. i guess what doesnt kill you makes you stronger. susie
