that ' s awesome didn ' t know it D <| sep |> Do you binge because you can ' t say no to certain foods or because you find the feeling of being full weirdly comforting ? I ' m kind of both , but mostly the latter . If it ' s the former what I found helpful was splitting up the prepackaged amount into small portions , e . g . I ' d break a bar of chocolate into individual pieces , wrap each individual piece in paper and label them by date one piece per day . That way I still had a full unit of chocolate , it ' s just that my units were way smaller and I didn ' t get the urge to finish the whole bar because I didn ' t see a halfeaten bar of chocolate in front of me . If it ' s the latter not to go all armchair psychologist on you , but I find that bingeing , for me , at least , is a stressrelieving mechanism . If that ' s the case for you , you need to find another way to relieve the tension . What I do is I have a heavy bag of books on the ready and whenever I feel like bingeing , I ' ll grab it and lift it over my head while doing a couple of reps of squats , just to relieve some of the physical tension , and I find it helps a lot meditation and antistress balls and all the rest of it does nothing for me , but mild exercise kind of really works .
