Hello, I am an overeater, I binge at night a lot and heard that hypnotism might be useful. Just wondering if anyone has used hypnotism and if it worked for them. And what works best for you, maybe there is one of those for YouTube hypnotism sessions that work great would love to know the link Thanks!

personally, I don't believe in all this hypnotism stuff- for anything, not just for eating.

I did try once with someone, but it didn't end well - it ended in a lot of shouting and arguing. I guess that it's put me off trying again (though maybe I never believed it anyway,I don't know)

and I guess it's time for a fun food story:

this week, for some reason, I was driven to type in to amazon "jelly worms", hoping I will get these huge wiggly worms

they arived and they are tiny!. really tiny!.

my eating's not been too bad this week, I had my takeout yesterday- and i've had the odd chocolate bar (current craze is crunchy bar chocolates)

quiet before the storm, I think. I have a box ariving soon of 30 packets of roast beef flavour monster munch.

things are going to change

(tonight I am having turkey dinosaurs, I have not eaten those for over 4 years!). I had to post about that, I am excited

I didn't do too terribly today. I wasn't feeling terribly well (cramps) and that usually staves off any desire to eat too much.

I enjoyed my dinosaurs.

it was good to eat something i'd not eaten in so long (like I say, I can't believe i found those!)

still, their wern't many dinos to chomp through, so I ended up resorting to my tub of wiggly worms- and I now have almost cleared them all out

There's a scale at my workplace's fitness center and I decided to weigh myself. I think I actually gained weight, even though I thought I lost. And seeing how high the number is...I'm so disgusted with myself. Normal people my age can be sedentary, live on junk food, and be the definition of hot. I do the same and end up looking repulsive.

It's weirdly motivating to start making changes now that I have a number to work from...but I know I have no discipline.

I did okay yesterday...I switched to oatmeal for breakfast, had a salad for lunch, and then soup and crackers for dinner. I ate way too many crackers with dinner, but oh well. I feel bad because a co-worker brought in treats and I had some, plus I had some chocolate in the middle of the night last night. But at least I didn't feel like I binged all day long. The only thing really was those crackers.

i've slowed down for the last few days

though I think it's safe to say that it's to prepare for the big christmas binge

(the 1 I always say i'll never do and do anyway)

yesterday I did have a fair amount of candy

I can't resist it when I see jelly beans

should be ashamed

in the last 2 days I ate 2 1KG candy bags (that's 1 each day)

that's on top of my chocolate and my meals

I just don't feel the guilt though.

strange

I didn't feel guilty either. But after awhile I became disgusted with myself. Not a good feeling.

today was 1 of those days where I didn't eat anything until mealtime (so 5 30), had a very small dinner, then just binged on chocolate.

another thing I find

when it comes to actually eating proper meals, you want a small portion so you can just get to the good stuff afterwards

surrounded by all this junk food.

lots and lots of it

amazing how you just let it all get out of control- and you think you don't have too much left, but you're ordering new stuff all the time to top up the supply as it were.

probably going to be a bad few days
