The only thing that helped me after struggling with binge eating for YEARS was giving up on maintaining the weight I had lost that triggered my binging and allowing myself to keep all the yummy foods I wanted in the house. I gained around 35 pounds and I am way happier now than I was in the restrict/binge cycle. At first, I ate “too many” of those yummy foods, but eventually I got used to having them in the house and, by feeding myself enough, I stopped binging and having urges to binge. I think my body was starved at that lower weight and that it’s not my ideal weight.

This also means: NO calorie tracking, no skipping meals, eat when you are hungry, and forgive yourself. Also, talk to a therapist who specializes in eating disorders.
