I keep binging at night TW

No purging. Will see my pdoc next week. I will ask him for a referral to eating disorders specialist. I’m tempted to purge bc I don’t want to gain more weight but I don’t purge

Are you still fasting during the day?

A little. I haven’t eaten yet today but yesterday I made sure to eat a bowl of soup for lunch. Beans for dinner at about 1700 (5 pm) but I just kept eating them. I wanted to eat a bowl of Ramen noodles last night but I refrained from doing so. Thanks for asking.
@Ninjastar. I find that if I eat during the day I don’t binge as badly. Right now all I really have in my house to eat are two backs of Ramen noodles, a packet of microwaveable rice and a bag of dry beans. Oh and deer and pork meat

You’re probably binging at night because you aren’t getting enough calories throughout the day. Looking for an eating disorder specialist might be a good idea for you. They can encourage you to eat more throughout the day so you don’t feel so hungry at night.

I definitely don’t want to purge again. I did that as a teenager and it was awful.

I’ve found that dieting is very dangerous for people who have struggled with eating disorders, and should only be done under close guidance of an eating disorder specialist. Otherwise, people get triggered into obsessing over everything they eat, and weighing themselves, and it overtakes their mental health.
