But I can always guess. Just really tired of it. Maybe this is what I need. Tried OA too...doesn't work,for me.

Hi. I do think its so hard to figure these things out. But I hope you will keep asking the question. And never give up on seeking the solution. I know its a painful thing. Believe me, I know

i understand your frustration. I go from extremes in my life from not eating for several months to overeating every chance i get. my weight is either going up 50 lbs or down 50lbs its never ending! And the whole thing is when i eat i dont stop with no shame no guilt, its like i have a bottomless pit that can take on a semi full of food and still be hungry! i know i love to eat even during those months when im starving myself all i can think about is food! another thing about me is that im a fast eater, i dont think anyone in the world could keep up with me at the meal table! i dont know why i do this? Food has always been very comforting to me and i even talk to my food as bizarre as it sounds....i love to eat... hugs to you i hope you find your answers...

colormehappy: I also eat alarmingly fast. I tend to think about food constantly. And yes. I was on the yoyo train for most of my life. I am hoping thats over. But you know how that works. I have a moral fear that I will gain weight. Yet again.. for the 125th time. In my life tere is little peace with an ed. Although right now my health is so bad that I can only eat about 10 foods. And they really are not very fattning. I think I ruined my body by starving.

She: I too tried OA and it is not right for me. I am too shame based to do the 12 steps. Although I do have respect for the program.

I hear you. I just eat to eat. I love the taste of chocolate. I could eat several bags a day with nothing else. I just like the taste. Sometimes I wonder if there is a different meaning behind why it's just that one food I binge on. I don't know the answer to that. Could it be as simple as I love the taste????

I'm trying to slow down when I eat too. It seems to help the signal of being full get to my brain!!
