Binge Eating Disorder Queen
Yes I was the queen of binge eating disorder. I suffered from BED binge eating disorder for the majority of my life. I have not binged this whole year and do not intend to binge for the rest of my life. The first step of overcoming this disorder is figuring out the emotions your using the binge to cope with. And dealing with those emotions. I have no problem laying all this out here about my disorder because addictions and disorders feed on shame and secrecy. They don’t like totally honesty …

Yes a lot of epole think that binge eating disorder isnt a real eating disorder. i suffer from both bulimia and anorexia. i do understand thta this also qualifies as an ED. It has to hurt so bad to push the food in that much. I hope you get better
when i binge… i eat around 4000 calories as well :/ it is a disorder. it is a disease. please tell me there is a cure.
were you diagnosed with BED by a dr?
if youre the queen girl, Im the princess.
I can connect with you so much, i did a lot of things that you did!
Hahah id go to the store and buy 400 bucks of grocerys and finish it all in 3 or 4 days..I would eat so much that id look pregnant too!!!
And also, I used to tell myself, okay, I am deciding i cant go shopping, all my money = goingto food, it was terrible!!
It feels really good to know that I am not the only one who has delt with this.
OMG….I LOVE This.
Reminds me of our 3hour Phone Call the other night:)
My binges were at least that bad maybe worse, until I was about 35, & I never stopped 2 lose the weight in between. Hours & hours of eating……loved it 2….I think we R kindred spirits…..loved 2 watch TV & eat. At 35 I slowed down on “using food” & began 2 deal w/ & release a lot of emotional baggage. Difficult process, but necessary! At 40 the obsession is gone, food is fuel, I deal with the emotions as they come & my body is responding! THANK GOD! As always…GREAT video!
Your videos share so much in every one. I love hearing all that you share with me. I am sending Big hugs and kisses for your beautiful cheeks,. I hope you have a great day tomorrow. God bless you and your family.
Thank you for the video. I can really relate. I am struggling with this now.
lol! i always seem to record from my bed too! or my couch…
Sarah.
its true what you were saying though, it really was a *high* when i’d binge, then afterwards i’d feel all full and sleepy and *poof* problems gone!
it’s good to see your approach to the issue. keep it up – you can do it!
great vid.
i’m not always in bed, i’m very active, but when i film a youtube video its when i’m relaxing in bed which is not for much time during the day for me
Girl, how do you lose weight if you’re always in bed?!
I do well on a diet/eatting plan… but then one day I decide to eat whatever I want… but it leads into another day and then I have gained 100 lbs! But I have never at as much as you are saying at once. I just kept eatting more and more gradually. Never had my stomache extended either. You seemed to have gotten past the BED so keep it up! I know it is a constant struggle though! I still have some emotional quirks to overcome and face but one day at a time.
PART 2 (I also have a problem with keeping myself short in text.. obviously
)And I do eat with my feelings, whe i´m sad, worried or especially when I´m angry (sorry for some bad spelling but I´m not “an english speaking person”)
But… I will follow you.. and you will be part of my motivation… You already are… If there´s a will there´s a hope…
You are talking about dealing with your emotions. And that´s the BIG problem for me! I know I have to deal with them, but how? How do you do that?? I´ve just found you here with the help of 5awesomeoptimists I have been watching some of your vids and I´m so impressed. You´ve done such a great job. I would like to do it myself, and I tried… oh my god did I try… but as I almost reach my goals I tend to lose my motivation and everything goes in the opposite direction… so frustrating!!!
Glad you made this video. Nobody ever wants to talk about any of this. WHY??? If we talked about it more we could start to try and get better.
GREAT vid. I really enjoyed listening to what you had to say.
thank you and I agree
all of those things are related but for me it was just food
thank you for making this video, the more people talk about this issue the more others will understand it. i could relate to a lot of what you said!
Do you think that the addictive aspect of B.E. has affected other thing in your life? Like shopping or drinking etc.
