I don't know if this will help because I don't have an ed, but I was binging for some unknown reason a few months ago and started gaining weight. I was eating a half of a carton of ice cream a night, half a container of chips, I just couldn't stop eating. so I downloaded a calorie counting app on my phone and discovered I must have been eating 4-5 thousand callories a night. so I cut it to 1200 then upped it to 16, 2000 max a day. but I just switched out everything for lower calorie versions. mayo was 90 but if you get the olive oil mayo it is only 35. bread is 110 a slice but sara lee has bread for 45 a slice. tuna is low calories. yogurt for 80 calories. sugar fee pudding. ice cream on a stick 160, some less. frozen dinners 210-270. so I still ate every hour, I just ate lower calorie versions and I could keep my calore count on avg around 1600 a day. I had my coffee with sugar and cream every morning which cost a lot of calories and I eventually switched to artificial sugar so I could have those calories elsewhere. by keeping count of the calories I started making wiser food choices and really questioning wheter I wanted to eat something or not. within a couple months I had lost all the weight I had gained. and only in this last month have I stopped binging
