   could they not have found a more appropriate presenter to do this show. the blonde is v.v. skinny… maybe somone healthyier would have been more appopriate. . . the paradox of the media.

   Nothing to worry …
   Nothing to worry about. It’s just that people who have never had an addiction have no clue. I can try to talk to my friends about it but none of them understand. Some look at me and I know they are thinking….”Just quit eating so much.” I just hate it.

   Sorry if my comment …
   Sorry if my comment came off wrong. I am a compulsive binge eater as well. I just felt like the way the newscasters were speaking about the women in the voiceovers was mocking. I know I’m probably over-sensitive and if I offended at all I apologize.

   You saw her as …
   You saw her as something hideous and out of control freak. The video presented the two women as it really is. I know, I am a compulsive binge eater. It’s so hard and you tell yourself all the time you need to stop. And then the next meal time comes around and it’s like something else takes over. My fear is being hideous and I know I’m out of control. And I feel so unloved. Didn’t mean to sound ugly. Just wanted you to understand.

   this video presents her as some hideous out of control freak shown for shock value. disgusting disgusting.
   media needs to take binge eating disorder more seriously. even though its good that its being talked about… the manner in which it is presented needs work. just my opinion.

   Did she compare herself to a drug abuser and a alcoholic.

   binge eaters …
   binge eaters usually feel a lack of comfort in their life that they temporarily get from eating where anorexics strive for a felling of control

   Thank you carlschar. I hate the fact that ppl feel as though skinny ppl have NO problems. We probably have more problems… psychologically at least, like you said.

    what bothers me, is …
    what bothers me, is the fact that people only relate compulsive over eating to over-weight or obese people. Not everyone is. I, myself, suffer from this disorder, and I have NEVER been close to being over-weight. In fact, because of my genes, I’m quite atheltic. They should also focus on “us”. Because it is something that is hard psychologically. I hate the fact that I don’t have much control, but I just recently got better. It feels fantastic. I’m gaining control. Food is not life. Not MY life.

    don’t starve yourself it’s about portion control , control that and we’ll be ok:)

    I hate being a …
    I hate being a binge eater. It sucks! All I think about is food. I sneak out and everything. People think I’m joking when I say I have a problem. When I really want food and it doesn’t come now, I start shaking. Now, I’m trying soooo hard to stay away from food. Yes, I’m starving myself now. It’s to make up for the binge and a way to gain control. I feel like a cow…

    I struggle with it …
    I struggle with it as well and what happens is it’s an episode of emotionless over eating where you phase out everything except eating more. You have no control over your body and you can’t just say no until you are extremely full or check back in. I’m an athlete, with an normal body type. I’ve never been obese, so I am able to exercise really hard to lose the weight but my weight fluctuates all the time and my eating habits are very abnormal. It’s embarrassing and very lonely sometimes.

    I hate it when people say just stop eating,they really don’t understand it.

    Wow, that part about the dog made me very emotional.
    I’m so happy for her being able to gain some control of her ED, it’s not fun, believe me.

    Binge eating is …
    Binge eating is eating compulsively
    without being able to stop yourself
    even when you are full.
    Sometimes, you don’t even feel full.
    It’s a really hard disorder to fight.
