The October issue of the Awake! has an article called "Do I Have an Eating Disorder?"
Listening to the description on binge-eating on an MP3 disk...
"Like the bulimic, the binge-eater will consume a large amount of food. The difference is that she will not purge. As a result, the binge-eater may be overweight. Some will, however, starve themselves after a binge, or ingage in rigorous exercise. Sometimes, when weight is maintained in this way, family and friends remain oblivious to the binger's plight."
And it goes on with some quotes and such.
Yeah...that sounds like me.
Tonight...I did terrible. Book study again. Book study = a meeting then, in the case of my book study, food.
I ate a bunch of crackers, a few slices of salami, a tontonton of chips, with salsa, and about 7 or 8 mini candy bars.
I couldn't stop eating, even though I really wanted to!!!
My mom even tapped me on the shoulder and said "Let's go" in a rather knowing tone when she saw me packing away even more chips w/salsa.
I feel stuffed. And my tummy kinda hurts. ;__;
I have a problem...a lack of control. I hate it. I wish I knew what I could do about it...
I feel sick just thinking about how much I ate tonight.
I'll continue listening to this article. And I'll listen to the next one in the series, too. It should be a continuation. Maybe it will offer suggestions...stuff I haven't heard yet. Yay. <3
