Has anyone successfully overcome this?

Hi all, I have known for a long time that I have significant problems with my relationship with food. I go through the same cycle all the time; starve, binge, starve, binge. You know? Last year I dropped 85 pounds over 5 months and then regained it back over 3 months this year (I managed to maintain for a few months). I just feel like it's all or nothing and I so just want to be normal. Has anyone here successfully managed to overcome binge-eating or any other eating disorder? How did you do it?

Please help me - I'm fed up of reading around libraries and the internet for advice. I want real advice from real people

Cheers

Hi There, I just wanted to say I know how you are feeling. I do the same except I keep bingeing but dont starve myself so my weight is going up and up!

I feel like I'm searching for an answer, and then a light will come on and I'll be like 'hey this is what I need to do' and it will be easy, but I'm slowly realising that this isn't going to happen, and I worry that I am going to battle with food and weight until the day I die.

Sorry, not really an answer to your question but just wanted you to know you are not alone!

Thanks for the reply. Don't be fooled - I am VERY overweight! I said I go through cycles of binge and starve but I've been stuck in binge mode for months! The easy thing would be to say I just want to get back into starve mode, but actually, I just want to eat NORMALLY you know? I just need to feel that other people have done it but it's still nice to know that other people feel the same.
