binge eating is awful. itâs stressful, extremely upsetting, and it can make you feel out of control. but overcoming binge eating is possible. there was a time when i thought i would never beat the binge cycle that i was trapped in, but with hard work and dedication i was able to fully recover. iâve grown so much through my experience, and i picked up a lot of useful tips and tricks along the way. so i put together a bunch of resources that will hopefully help you get through this too. itâs a long post, so buckle up. letâs get into itâŠ
beat cravings:
drink water
or peppermint tea
chew mint gum
gargle mouthwash
suck on ice cubes
brush your teeth
find healthier alternatives to the foods that you crave. fruit instead of candy, miracle noodles instead of pasta, frozen yogurt instead of ice cream, dark chocolate instead of milk chocolate, popcorn instead of chips⊠etc.
distract yourself:
study or do homework
meditate
exercise!
clean your room
paint your nails
do your makeup
take a shower or long bath
shave your legs
do a face mask
write a story or in your journal
work on an art project
read a book
make cute diy gifts for your loved ones
organize your closet
go for a walk or run
try on/plan outfits
take a nap
go shopping
run errands
just get out of the house and away from the kitchen
call up a friend
volunteer
binge prevention tips:
tell someone! having a support system can do wonders for your recovery. they can hold you accountable and encourage you.
get rid of all trigger foods. seriously, go through your kitchen and throw out everything you have the tendency to binge on. i used to binge on ice cream every single day until i tossed it out. chocolate, cereal, peanut butter, whatever your vice is⊠say goodbye. âif itâs there, youâll eat it.â
tip #1 can be tough if you donât live alone. opening up to your roommates about your problem can really help them understand the seriousness of it. one thing you can do is keep all of your food in a separate area, and train yourself to eat only from your own stash. in binge eating disorder recovery, i kept my food in an entirely different room from the kitchen (thanks, minifridge) and it helped me so much!
also, donât buy food products youâve binged on before. never go to the grocery store hungry, because youâll be more likely to fill your cart with things that arenât great for you (or your binging).
crash dieting often results in the development of binge eating. donât restrict your calories too much if your goal is sustainable fat loss. furthermore, youâre gonna need energy to get through your workouts!
if the urge to eat is strong, make food that requires cooking/baking. i usually toss a sweet potato or some into the oven because itâll take an hour or so to be ready to eat. by then, the urge to binge has often subsided.
always stock up on high volume foods, like vegetables. one of my favorite binge prevention techniques is to buy giant bags of veggies that i can just throw in the microwave. theyâre huge- for a very small amount of calories, so if i eat a lot, itâs totally okay. (i like the ones from greengiant.)
meal prep meal prep meal prep! make your meals beforehand (in cute lil containers if you like) and this can help you stay on track. if you want to take it a step further, you can even buy the ingredients you need day-by-day to completely eliminate any chance of binging. (although this means going to the grocery store every day.)
set alarms for when you eat your meals. i just use an app on my phone for this. it helps because when i get a craving i am able to tell myself, just a little while longer until the next alarm and then i can eat.
include plenty of protein and fiber in your diet. they help keep you full! but itâs also important that your diet includes carbs and fats as well. a lack of any nutrient can cause your brain to send signals to your body that you need to eat. besides, you need all of these things to function!
donât completely deprive yourself of any food you love. moderation is key.
get proper sleep! you should aim for around 9 hours of sleep per night. not getting enough sleep is linked to overeating, a slowed metabolism, and an increase in appetite.
never skip breakfast! every time i skip breakfast i always end up eating way too much later in the day.
and of course⊠stay hydrated. đ§
how to make an anti-binge box:
itâs a good idea to keep a stash of helpful items somewhere in the house. i keep mine in my room because i tend to binge at night. hereâs some ideas for what to put in your anti-binge box.
gum/mints
bottled water
flavored sparkling water (good for soda cravings).
tea bags
jump rope, dumbbells, or other exercise equipment that you can grab and go
motivational quotes/pictures
journal
low calorie snacks like rice cakes, applesauce, jello, etc. (sometimes the act of chewing/eating will help ease the urge to binge.)
books
important phone numbers in case you need to call someone to help
intermittent fasting for binge prevention:
ah, intermittent fasting⊠itâs all the rage these days. normally i would roll my eyes at such diet trends, but this is what finally helped me get over my binge cycle!
i use the 16:8 fasting method, which in my opinion is the most effective for binge prevention. you have an 8-hour eating window in which you have all of your meals, and then you donât eat for 16 hours.
my eating window is from 8am to 4pm, because i am more likely to binge in the evenings. even if i start to compulsively overeat during the day, i am able to stop at 4pm because itâs become a habit to do so.
your personal eating window can be whenever you want it to be, but i highly recommend the majority of your fasting to be during sleep.
intermittent fasting has several other benefits, but it can also cause health issues for some individuals. you should do your own research before determining whether or not intermittent fasting is for you.
what to do after a binge:
donât panic. it takes 3500 calories over your basal metabolic rate to gain one pound. most people burn around 2000 each day, so if you binged on 4000 calories today, you wonât gain even half a pound! remember this if you step on the scale and it says youâve gained several pounds overnight. i promise that you have not- the weight gain comes from water retention, food, and waste.
step away from the kitchen. go to a room where you can calm down and recuperate. your bedroom, a cozy den perhaps. just get away from the source of your distress.
find some way to relax. take a shower or soothing bath, watch an episode of your favorite tv show, curl up with a good book, exercise if you feel up to it.
if you are having a panic attack, move to a space where you will be less likely to hurt yourself. make sure there are no sharp things around. then just float along with the panic attack until it subsides; recognize that you are not dying and that this panic attack cannot hurt you, and just roll with it. ride the wave until itâs over instead of fighting it. (and call someone to be with you if you can.)
donât try to starve yourself the next day, as this will likely only lead to another binge. trust me when i say that binge-starve cycles are the worst. besides, one single binge will barely impact your weight. just accept that it happened and move on.
dealing with the physical pain:
binge eating can be painful and very uncomfortable. it may feel like youâre about to burst. here are a few of my tips, researched and learned from experience, to help with the bloating and other physical symptoms that might occur after a binge.
drink tea. peppermint tea is excellent for soothing a bloated belly, but all teas have benefits. though i would suggest that you avoid caffeine right now, as it can make your anxiety worse.
try a heating pad. this can help with the pain.
sit still, close your eyes. lie down and allow your body to recover from the shock it has just received.
take a hot bath or a warm shower. relax, baby.
drink water. but donât drink too much too quickly, or you might get nauseated.
do not force yourself to throw up (purge) because binging is already a shock to your body. vomiting is even more of a shock. you can do a lot of damage by purging, and it can be really hard to stop once you start. just donât do it.
try to do some light yoga/stretching if you can, but donât do strenuous exercise yet. allow your body to digest the food.
go to sleep. hit the reset button and start fresh tomorrow. sleeping is great for settling your stomach and healing your body.Â
treatment options:
often times, binge eating is triggered by an emotion or stress. consider talking to a therapist who can give you strategies to combat this. therapy can help you get down to the root of the problem and find out whatâs causing that stress. compulsive eating can also be helped with therapy.
work with a dietician or nutritionist. sometimes when another person plans out your foods and meals, it can help you stay on top of things. it can be good motivation too.
if things are really bad, consider seeing a psychiatrist who will prescribe you meds to help you stop binging. some meds can help with impulse control and appetite. itâs totally ok if you need prescriptions to help you out⊠thereâs no shame in taking medicine!

ask me anything | my answered asks
if youâre in eating disorder recovery, you may find that youâve started binging. relax, breathe, and go with the flow. i know that itâs not fun and itâs emotionally stressful, but your body is very smart and will do anything it takes to keep you alive. it needs nourishment. it needs fuel. and chances are, you need to gain some weight before youâre healthy. your body will know when itâs time to stop eating so much. right now itâs trying to get as much food as it can, because it doesnât know when itâll be starved again. when you reach a healthy weight/replenish nutrients youâve been lacking, you will stop binging. trust me⊠iâve been through it myself. it is not forever.
and if youâre in recovery, try to keep in mind how much your body is healing right now. (if youâre not recovering, youâre dying.) also, your metabolism is returning to normal- which is pretty cool!
binge eating is not your fault. itâs an actual disorder and that means that itâs an illness. you are not a failure or a loser, you are suffering and your pain is very real. what youâre going through is valid. you are such a badass for getting out of bed each day.Â
i remember feeling so hopeless during the worst of my binge eating. i thought that it would never end and i would never stop gaining weight. i didnât want to live anymore. fast forward six months later and iâve never been happier. please stick around kiddo, cuzâ life really does get so much better.Â
it doesnât matter if you donât think youâre sick enough. you deserve treatment, you deserve help and a beautiful life. youâve got this! stay strong my lil warrior. â€

-60% calories ketchup (or just ketchup light)
mozarella light
toppings, i used mushrooms and then spinach

just make sure that you put a lot of toppings instead of lots of cheese, mushrooms and spinach are safe for sure

Think you eat too much to have a problem?
Many active people (women included) eat 3000+ calories a day and stay plenty lean.
The recommended daily calorie intake is 2000 for women and 2500 for men.
The recommended daily calorie intake for weight loss is 1500 for women and 2000 for men.
A 5-year-old needs about 1400 calories or more every day.
The minimum daily calorie intake for a long-term diet without medical supervision is 1200 for women and 1800 for men. Eating less than that eventually leads to starvation mode (a realâyes, realâstate of biological stress characterized by decreased metabolism, increased cortisol production, and heart, brain, organ, bone, and muscle damage).
A 2-year-old needs about 1000 calories or more every day.
Most people canât even imagine eating 1000 calories in a day. Youâll get 1,357 Google results if you search for the exact phrase â1000 calories is way too lowâ or â1000 calories is way too littleââŠbut youâll get even more results if you Google the same phrases for 1200 calories, because few people consider dipping below 1200.
A 3-digit daily calorie intake puts you at high risk for binge-eating, slowed metabolism, bone and muscle loss, nutritional deficiencies, gastrointestinal issues, infertility, hair loss, mood swings, and depression. Ohâand sudden death.
900 calories is less than what a completely sedentary, 5'0", 80 lb, 70-year-old woman burns daily (keeping in mind that your metabolism slows with age).
A very low calorie diet, also known as a starvation diet, is 800 calories a day or less. It is prescribed by doctors to obesity patients who need to lose weight quickly, is specially formulated to be nutritionally complete, and is monitored by medical professionals to prevent sudden cardiac arrest and death. It is considered an extreme diet.
600 calories a day or less is literal starvation.
500 calories is less than the daily calorie needs of the average 1-month-old.
400 calories is less than the daily calorie needs of the average newborn.
300 calories is less than what the adult brain alone burns every day.

Ana tip
Cleaning.
Yes, I am serious. Clean as much as you can, as often as you can. Why? It burns actually a LOT of calories (itâs hella exhausting), and attracts a lot less attention than secretly working out. If your parents/roommates/whatever ask why youâre suddenly cleaning so much, just say youâre tired of living in filth.
What you can do: literally everything. Sweep your floor, hell, sweep your entire goddamn house or appartment. Mop the floor. Make your bed. Clean your windows. Remove the dust from your shelves. Clean out your cupboards. Clean the bathroom. Remove every single speck of dirt and dust from the sink, the bathtub, the washing machine, the mirror, EVERYTHING. Wash the curtains and carpets and pillows and blankets. Do the laundry. Clean the dishes, your kitchen, the fridge, the oven, the microwave, the sink, and whatever else there is. There are ways EVERYTHING can be cleaned. If you already cleaned everything, then rearrange shit. Take every single book from your bookshelf and put them back in another order. If they are a bit dusty or dirty, clean them up a bit. Also, you can move around your furniture, and if someone asks what the hell youâre doing, explain that you are tired of the way your room looks.
There are ENDLESS possibilities to get moving and burning lots of calories without anyone getting suspicious. Be creative

PSA: đ©
why Iâm vegan ana forever
đ±âšâšâšâševerything is low calâšâšâšâšâš
đ±raw vegan is lyfe
đ±the poops
đ±can eat more per cal, QUANTITY+
đ±nutrient density
đ±health, better for your heart/less likely to get cancer/diabetes (bc, tbh, weâre all a little orthorexic)
đ±your food is lighter
đ±you poop as much as you eat. Fiber lax
đ±apps: daily dozen+myfitness pal= what you should normie eating+calorie town
đ±cheaper
đ±the animals
đ±most fear foods are straight-up forbidden, and once youâre vegan long enough they wonât be worth it or enticing at all (re: constipation/stomach pain/puking up dairy)
đ±zero cal dressings/spices
đ±youâre helping the planet
đ±if you want a more junk food type option, youâll have to pay more for it/eat out. Everything else is cheaper
đ±clear skin
đ±feeling full for 15-75mins, but then SO empty BC YOUâLL BE RUNNING FOR A SHIT
đ±like, just drink caffeine, eat all the leaves+aminos, and everything is fine
          âšâšđ±đ©đ©đ©đ©đ©đ±âšâš
đ„đ„đ„đ„đ„đ„đ„đ„đ„đ„đ„đ„đ„đ„đ„đ„đ„đ„đ„đ„đ„
đđ±itâs a lifestyle change, so there is a learning curve. Have to learn to cook/what to make/how to shop, but weâre all so food/calorie conscious that it doesnât take longđ±đ

vegan safe foods
đđđ
obviously most fruit and veggies are safe foods, altho this can vary for people. my fave fruits are strawberries, raspberries and grapes xx
breakfast foods
marmite rice cakes - only 28kcal each and they're Big!! they can be a whole breakfast for me
almond milk - 13kcal/100ml (i know cashew milk is also good but i'm allergic đŹ)
unsweetened alpro yoghurt - 43kcal/100g and i sweeten it with skinnyfoodco's caramel syrup which is no cal!! đ„°đ„°
greek yoghurt alpro - 5.8g protein in 100g! and 68kcal
kallo salt and vinegar rice cake - 33kcal
hovis crackers - 27kcal and SO yum
lunch/dinner foods
shirataki noodles are actually amazing, only 10kcal/100g and they leave you so full. i like having it with tomato sauce or soy sauce and vegetables as well as protein
nakd banana bread bar - i know this one could be breakfast or lunch but honestly i normally have it as my lunch n it's only 94kcal
warburtons crumpet - 97kcal and a good way to look like you're eating normal people food at lunch hehe
hovis wholemeal sliced bread - 64kcal per slice
quorn vegan ham/chicken slices - only 12kcal per slice!!
vegan cocktail sausages - i get mine from waitrose and they're only 19kcal/sausage
tofu - my fave brand of tofu is tofoo and i really like the smoked one as it's already flavoured. one 75g serving is 103kcal but it's high in protein so i don't mind!
baby broad beans - 50kcal/100g
potatoes - 61kcal/serving
linda mccartney meatballs - 114kcal/4 meatballs (i normally have these with shirataki noodles and tomato sauce as this makes a relatively lowcal dinner but it looks like and feels like a lot so i can eat with my family)
jackfruit - 27kcal/serving
linda mccartney pulled pork - 130kcal/quarter pack
vivera sweet potato burgers - 100kcal per burger (i normally eat half bc theyre quite big!)
miso soup - waitrose do one which has Everything in it and you just have to add hot water for only 32kcal
snacks
lotus biscoff 2pack - they are 38kcal each so 76 calories for 2 (mental maths đ) which i think is quite good for biscuits, theyre delicious but because i buy them in a 2pack,i don't binge bc it is harder to binge when u have to open a new packet every 2 biscuits aha
fruit juice lollies - you can make your own for even lower cals but the ones from waitrose are 32kcal
kallo dark chocolate rice cake thin - 55kcal and theyre good sized rice cakes
hartleys 10kcal jelly - theyre all gelatine-free and normally actually only 4 or 5 calories. they are quite filling as well xx

Vegan salad recipe (fucking amazing + filling af)
-Baby spinach as base (how much you want cause its super low cal)
-A couple of cherry tomatoes (œ cup is 25 kcal)
-Chickpeas (I used this mini packaging which was 65g and about 75 kcal)
-Smoked tofu (we have this brand in Slovakia called lunter and its 45 kcal for 40g)
Itâs really good and big and filling and vegan and I loved it. Over all itâs around 150 kcal and thereâs a lot of it. You can use a smaller amount of the ingredients but I had this for dinner and it was really good

itâs ya girl, back at it again, this time with
âšđș 222 cal pizza đșâš
okay so i see people posting pizza all the time and figured iâd share my recipe. been making this for at least a year now and it always works for me if iâm craving pizza. iâll try it sometime soon with that 28 calorie tortilla recipe thatâs been going around, but for now this works and does actually taste like pizza
đș ingredients đș
âą 1 - 7â tortilla - 100 kcal (your brand may vary)
âą25g pasta sauce - 12 kcal (your brand or type may vary, i use farm boy tomato basil because itâs what i have
âąsprinkle of red pepper flakes
âąyves veggie pepperoni or veggie salami, i used 2 pieces of veggie salami because the grocery store didnât have pepperoni - 30 kcal (28 kcal for the pepperoni, thatâs 7 pieces)
âą30g shredded part skim mozzarella cheese - 80 cal
âąsprinkle of italian seasoning
đ·method đ·
~ spread your pasta sauce on your tortilla and sprinkle red pepper flakes on top
~lay your pepperoni or salami on the sauce
~spread your cheese all over the pizza
~microwave 45 seconds to 1 minute, my microwave is really powerful so it only takes 45 seconds
~sprinkle a small pinch of italian seasoning on top
đđ enjoy and stay safe đđ
