anyone have any advice on staying on track to recover from binge eating? Especially with staying consistent on work outs and not giving in to cravings. Anything helps ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿ™

I usually have a low/zero calorie drink like a soda nearby if Iโ€™m at home doing nothing since thatโ€™s when I binge the most

I noticed a lot of my binging was coming from not enough balanced or filling meals. I now try to follow the general rule of having protein, complex carbs, fiber, and a healthy fat for most meals. If Im still a bit hungry Iโ€™ll add a bit more food to my plate or sometimes as a treat ill do dessert (esp if ive had a long week)

I use Pinterest a lot and TikTok for meal ideas but some of the ones I would make that felt filling/stopped me from binging were tuna bowls (white rice, tuna mixed with siracha and mayo, avocado, seaweed strips, kimchi, and sometimes a side of soup like miso or chicken stock with like bok choy or mushrooms)

Or Iโ€™d do like a sandwich (I like pesto chicken a lot) with salad or some veg on the side, a bit of fruit, and maybe some like kettle chips. I just found that when I really prioritized fiber and protein in my meals I felt full longer and didnโ€™t really need to binge since my meal was balanced and composed of whole foods
