This is really nice to hear . I ' m glad you ' re enjoying yourself . I hope I can have something similar next year . <| sep |> I can ' t think of any end that I want that justifies aggression against peaceful people . That doesn ' t mean there aren ' t things that I want , but I refuse to be a hypocrite and then call out others for doing the same . Centralized power grows by compromise . <| sep |> This isn ' t a car dummy <| sep |> Binging can be the result of restriction you get so hungry , you just devour things . Some binging is emotional , but some especially among people who regularly restrict is a physical response . If at all possible , try to eat a moderate intake . I ' m not pushing recovery 3 I mean , just for a while . Just try it for a couple of weeks to see if the binging stops . I have planned bingescheats every Sunday , and for a long time they worked well for me . I restricted during the week , had a large amount on food on Sundays to get it out of my system , and I would still lose weight . However , as I lost more and more weight and bodyfat as well as increasing my activity , I started binging more uncontrollably and being ravenously hungry during the week too . I was binging too much to lose weight , and felt totally out of control . I found the best way to stop it was to have a week or two of higher intake , to my TDEE , and let my appetite sort of ' reset '. My point is , I ' ve done this myself and it ' s REALLY worked Even going back to restriction , I did not feel the need to binge all the time . I now try to stop it before it starts by including diet breaks when I feel the hungerbingeyness coming on . You wont believe how much of a difference it can make to lessen the urge to binge going forward . but it really does . It ' s not just mental either just as it ' s likely your binges arnt . When you fastrestrict heavily , your body becomes more and more deprived of nutrients . You cannot at all control it , but your body knows what it ' s doing . it will make you more likely to seek out food , with a high change of binging , to rectify this . It ' thinks ' food is scarce , it just wants to eat . The urge will get stronger and stronger the longer it goes on . Once you resume a more balance intake , healthy foods to your TDEE every day , your leptin levels that control appetite will balance out more and the urge to binge should lessen , and you wont be so desperate to seek out food and eat a whole bunch . If you choose to carry on restricting to resume weight loss after that , totally your call . But you will feel less inclined to binge either way . I know you may be desperate to restrict and lose weight I know I was but without shaking it up a bit , you may be caught in this cycle for a long time . Even if you find yourself continuing to restrict after , a little while at your TDEE may do you the world of good . Even in regards to weight loss , this is a marathon and not a sprint You ' re only human 3 It ' s okay for it to go slower than you planned . So , I would say not restricting or fasting for a while from this point on if you can possibly manage it and that includes NOT trying to ' make up ' for the binge tonight with any fasting or restriction . Stick to healthy , low cal foods if you like , but allow yourself to eat meals and snacks and make sure you feel satiated . If you find it hard to manage this , say to yourself Just two weeks , just try it for two weeks . Again , not pushing recovery , but a suggestion of temporary measures to stop possibly restrictioninduced hungerbinging
