Do you have days were you seem to Binge?
Hi....
I have noticed lately that I seem to go in a pattern with eating....
for a couple of days I have hardly any appetite and then for a few days I could just sit and eat and eat. Does anyone else seem to notice this same pattern? It hasn't affected my weight loss....although now it is slowing dramatically. Just curious to see if anyone else seem to have this binge pattern?

Yep, I've noticed I've been getting bad about snacking, or at least WANTING to snack a lot, usually, I can resist. What worries me more is that I'm making bad choices more often than I like and the last couple of days I've over-eaten. This morning, I ate an entire breakfast sandwich, with English muffin, knowing full well that 1/2 was plenty. But I did it anyway...
Starting tomorrow I'm going back to logging and measuring my food for a while until I get this under control...
I know what you mean. Some days I can eat probably more than I should then other days I dont even want to eat and a couple bites and I am full. Was fun last week in San Diego, they feed us well on our company trips and well lets just say I didnt listen to the pouch and some days meals didnt stay with me, like it was telling me hey you I told you I had enough!
Without a doubt! Granted, I can't eat the $15-20 worth of McD's like I used to, but I'll eat some - feel a little full, wait about 30-45 minutes, eat a bit more, wait 30-45 minutes eat a bit more and have done that more than once. It's usually in the evenings when I'm bored or watching tv or something. I'm definitely becoming more conscious of it and 'listening' more to my pouch. I'm also working on trying to recognize my triggers whether they be food or emotional or whatever. I know I've been eating poorly for 36 years, 8 months is a good amount of time, but not enough to undo 36 years of practice. It is better than it was, but could still be better.

Boy I thought I was the only one feeling this way. I too have days where I want to just eat away and there are days where I can control the feeling. Whats up with that? I am 8 months out and have only lost about 65lbs. I am working out now but its getting so hard for me. I think that I am not going to lose anymore. I think I'm thru.
