I have always known that I am a binge whatever. Before I stopped drinking I would go for weeks and even months without a drink and then I would got nuts for 2-3 days. I do that with food now except it is getting much worse than the drinking ever did. It is my little coping secret except it doesn't work. I will do fine most of the day, eating regularly, staying away from the fatty baked goods that I love so much and then something will trigger and I'll go nuts. It's about every day now. It doesn't matter how "good" I hope to be - sometime during the day I start with just a taste of something and then the next thing you know I've purchased and eaten an entire container of something. I go for cookies, doughnuts, cupcakes, etc. It's a tough battle. I'm working on it. One day at a time, one step at a time. I think it is harder with food because you have to eat something. The saddest part is I know it will make me sick (pain, bloating, gas, C) but it isn't enough to stop me. My husband says when the pain gets bad enough I'll do something about it. In the meantime...
