Hi Wondersun. It strikes me that you said you pinched one of the bars from the kitchen and that you see this as a giant failure. Did this lead to a full blown binge? Or was this what you regard as the failure? What I've discovered is that people who don't suffer from binge eating disorder will often eat foods in type and quantities that we would consider a failure. For us with binge eating disorder, even eating a moderate sized packet of chocolate (or similar foods) can be seen as being a failure, because of what we believe it represents - our inability to resist eating foods we consider not good for us or quantities that we consider too large. But in actual fact, quite often what we eat is very normal. And it is often the way we react to what we eat - the catastrophic thoughts we have in our head about it - that sends us into a full blown binge, via the thoughts of, well I've blown it now, so I might as well binge. Just some thoughts - hope they may be of some help. All the best.
