Your Subconscious Plays a Huge Part in Ending Binge Eating
Your Subconscious Plays a Huge Part in Ending Binge Eating
By Kristin Gerstley
If you had the ability to design your life the exact way that you wanted to, would you? If you could create every detail of your life, how would that be? What if I told you that you have this incredible power within you? What if I told you that you could co-create your life to your exact specifications? Would you want to?
Whether you realize it or not, your subconscious mind picks up on all of your positive or negative statements that you say or think about yourself. Think of your subconscious as a sponge. It soaks up tons and tons of information, some of which you are not even aware of. Everything that you come into contact with in your daily life gets absorbed into your subconscious and will stay there forever, as you are not able to filter through what gets to your subconscious mind.
You may think questions to yourself such as, “Why am I so fat?” and your subconscious focuses on the fat part. It doesn’t hear the rest of the statement. It focuses on fat and that is what becomes programmed into your mind. Subconsciously you will keep feeding that part of your mind with the word fat being the focus.
This is why it is so important that when people use affirmations to end their battle with binge eating disorder they are careful of what they say and think. By filling your subconscious mind with negative statements about yourself, you will get what you don’t want, even though that is not your intention. The subconscious mind accepts any and all information because it does not know any better. This is also why affirmations work so well: Your subconscious cannot distinguish what is real and what is not real. You must use this to your advantage and when you find yourself thinking a negative thought, it is imperative that you counteract that statement with a positive one immediately.
The main purpose of reprogramming your subconscious mind with affirmations is so you can change your current reality. What is it that you want in your life? What do you wish to attract in your life? How do you see your future in terms of binge eating? How bad do you want to stop binge eating? Since your subconscious mind makes up about 90% of your whole mind, can you imagine what can happen to your life by incorporating affirmations daily? Your dreams can start to become your reality. Binge Eating can start to become a thing of your past.
Affirmations can help with all areas of your life including: your fears, anxiety, personal development, and improvement with yourself. By adding affirmations to your life, your self-esteem and confidence will grow more than you can ever imagine… Or can you?
Right now you may be at the lowest point ever because you binge. You are not happy in your life and wish to change. You want a happy ending, but are unsure of how to get there. Even though there are obstacles in overcoming binge eating disorder, don’t let that discourage you. Don’t focus on how long it may take. Take each day and live for that day. Focus on not bingeing that day and start positive affirmations. Remember that ending binge eating will come with the help of subconscious change. Notice what will happen to your life and welcome the new you with open arms!

Is Binge Eating Making You Feel Alone?
Is Binge Eating Making You Feel Alone?
By Kristin Gerstley
If you have Binge Eating Disorder, you understand the feelings of loneliness. You know what it is like to live in a secret world that no one knows about. You have a big secret, but no one is allowed to see that side of you.
At restaurants with friends, you order just the right amount of food and can’t finish it all because you are so full. Little do your friends know that you had already eaten enough food for three people just two hours before meeting them for another dinner.
You talk to your friends about why you are overweight. You don’t know why, you say. They are just as stumped as you are. They see what you eat and it is small portions. Not even unhealthy foods most of the time.
But what they don’t know is that you have Binge Eating Disorder. You have something that is constantly looming over your head. Food. Food is a dream and a nightmare mixed into one. Food makes you feel better and then makes you feel worthless the very next minute.
You don’t want to let your friends into your secret world though. This is your world and they will not understand. They may just tell you to stop eating so much. They won’t understand.
But, if they are your friends, they will understand. You cannot let any self-limiting beliefs stand in your way anymore. Your friends love you and will stand by your side when asked for help. You mean everything to them.
The first step that you can take is to tell someone that you trust. Stop dealing with this big problem on your own. Ask a friend to just listen to you when you need them. Often talking about problems and just getting things off of your chest will make you feel so much better. Plus, if you are hanging out with someone and talking about it, you are less likely to turn to food. It isn’t as available and you are not alone. You are forcing yourself out of your comfort zone and that is okay.
Get help and find a trusted confidant. Expose your secret world to them little by little, or by however feels right to you. Listen to yourself and let that be the judge. Once they know where you are coming from, they will be able to help you to where you hope to go in the future.
Don’t let binge eating disorder get the best of you; seek a friend to talk to and watch you start to feel better about yourself and your situation.

What is Binge Eating Disorder?
What is Binge Eating Disorder?
By Kristin Gerstley
Binge Eating Disorder is a disorder in which people use food to satisfy a variety of emotions in order to cope with them. People may binge when they experience any negative emotion, such as anger, sadness, or depression. Another reason a person may binge is shear boredom. People have used food as a coping mechanism for so long that now that it is a habit to turn and use food to make them feel better. People do not know how to deal with their “life” anymore without food. Binge Eating Disorder is the most common of all eating disorders. It affects about 25 million people.
When a person binges, they usually experience some, if not all, of the following: eating an usually large amount of food, feeling a loss of control while eating, consuming food more quickly than the average person, eating large amounts of food even when they do not feel hungry, feeling better eating alone because the amount of food is typically large, and feelings of guilt, disgust, and even becoming ashamed of themselves after a binge occurs.
The cause of Binge Eating Disorder is unknown. Depression and other emotional problems are prevalent in binge eaters. Many researchers think that there is a connection between people who diet and binge eat. When people diet, they deprive themselves of certain foods which causes them to want it more. When they do give in, they usually eat too much of this food and it most likely turns into a binge. Then the negative feelings set in and they make a promise that they aren’t going to eat bad anymore. This usually results in starting the cycle all over again and this is known as yo-yo dieting.
There are many consequences to bingeing. High blood pressure, heart disease, diabetes, and obesity are just a few complications that can arise when people binge. Many people can become sick from a binge because the foods that they chose to binge on as not full of vitamins and nutrients. The foods are fuller of sugar and fat and this, obviously, is very unhealthy.
Treatment for Binge Eating Disorder has the highest recovery rate of any disorder. People usually meet with a psychotherapist or psychiatrist. The health professional will ask questions about the person’s past to figure out when they started comforting themselves with food. They will get to the root of the problem and why is started and will give advice as to how the person should deal with those feelings when they happen. If this does not work, some medications may be added to treat the binge eating.
Changing the habit of turning to food is the key point in getting started. Changing all of the old habits will put you one foot closer to stop binge eating and to start getting on with your life.

Eating Disorder - Anorexia, Bulimia, Binge Eating
Eating Disorder - Anorexia, Bulimia, Binge Eating
By Michael Russell
An eating disorder is characterized by a strange eating behavior and unhealthy beliefs about eating and weight. It is most commonly found in a young female during her adolescence. It can go undetected for years. You must recognize an eating disorder before the treatment process can begin. There are 3 main types of eating disorders: anorexia nervosa, bulimia nervosa and binge eating.
Anorexia nervosa is an eating disorder characterized by restricted eating or self-starvation. They have a fear of food because they are afraid of becoming overweight. A person with anorexia nervosa refuses to maintain a safe body weight. They try to reach a dangerously low weight by going on extreme diets, fasting and compulsively exercising. Some people even refuse to eat and put themselves in danger of starving to death. They view themselves as being fat even if they are actually emaciated or dangerously thin. They set unreasonably high standards for how their body should look. A person with anorexia nervosa will usually undergo bouts of depression and anxiety. They may also abuse illegal drugs or go through mood swings. Some women may go through three or more consecutive months without a menstrual period. A case of anorexia nervosa usually begins while you are dieting and after a stressful event has occurred. About 1 percent of the American population has anorexia nervosa. About 90 percent of these cases happen to females. Most of these people are Caucasians who come from middle-class and upper-class backgrounds. About 5 to 10 percent of the people who suffer from anorexia nervosa die because of starvation, cardiac arrest, or suicide.
Bulimia nervosa is an eating disorder that consists of repeated bouts of binge eating. A person who is a binge eater has an uncontrollable urge to eat excessive amounts of food. This person will believe that he or she is overweight even when they are not. Some of these people induce vomiting, also known as purging, or use laxatives or diuretics to get rid of all of the food that was eaten during binging. Other people might fast and/or exercise excessively instead. People with bulimia nervosa might also abuse illegal drugs, feel depressed, or feel uneasy or fearful for no reason. The medical complications that accompany bulimia nervosa are not as dangerous as those that accompany anorexia nervosa. All of the binging and purging or fasting might result in dental and periodontal problems, heart problems, bleeding in the esophagus and ruptures in the lining of the stomach. About 2 percent of the American population suffers from bulimia nervosa. About 90 percent of these people are female. Most of these people are Caucasians from middle-class and upper-class backgrounds. However, it is getting more common among non-Caucasian groups. Bulimia nervosa occurs mainly to vulnerable people who have already suffered through a traumatizing event.
No one had heard of binge eating disorder until the term was first introduced to the public in 1992. Binge eating disorder consists of repeated bouts of overeating. A person with this disorder has an irresistible need to eat. Eating is usually done in private. After the eating is done, this person usually feels very guilty or remorseful. However, unlike bulimia nervosa, there is no purging, fasting, excessive exercising, or use of laxatives or diuretics. About 3 percent of Americans suffer from the binge eating disorder. Most people with this disorder are adults. It may surprise some people to know that just as many females as males are afflicted with it and it is also prevalent across all ethnic groups. You do not have to be overweight to be diagnosed with this disorder. In spite of this, studies indicate that 40 percent of obese people have the binge eating disorder. These people are at a higher risk for medical complications because of further weight gain. Binge eaters who are also obese might also abuse illegal drugs, suffer from depression, lack self-confidence, or feel that his or her body does not measure up to the standards of modern society. Medical researchers have yet to determine the cause of this eating disorder.

Eating Disorder - Binge Eating
Eating Disorder - Binge Eating
By Michael Russell
Binge eating disorder is an eating disorder in which the sufferer consumes food, unusually large amounts of food, on a regular basis in a brief period of time, hungry or not and continues to eat until they feel rather uncomfortable. These bouts are usually followed by feelings of guilt. Here the sufferer does not induce purging after binging unlike in the case of bulimia. This eating disorder is a problem, which affects both men and women but it is more common in women. This unhealthy habit of overeating tends to develop during childhood.
What are the possible causes of binge eating disorder?
It is still difficult to pin point the exact cause or causes of this disorder. However, the following may be some of the causes of this eating disorder:
Depression - No one actually knows for sure if depression is a cause or an effect of binge eating disorder but it has been noted that about fifty percent of the individuals with this disorder have a history of depression or are depressed. This depression may be even totally unrelated.
Dieting - It is still not clear if dieting is a cause of binge eating. Here too, about fifty percent of the sufferers of binge eating disorder had episodes of binging before they started to diet. Dieting may actually worsen their condition.
Genetics - Many researchers have come to the conclusion that genes may in some way be involved as it was found that many members of the same family suffered from this disorder.
Unable to cope - Studies have shown that some individuals who cannot handle their emotions like sadness, anger, stress etc and even people who have a low self esteem often turn to binge eating in order to cope better. They binge eat in order to hide from these various emotions.
Some of the signs and symptoms of binge eating disorder are:
. They gain weight and subsequently become obese,
. They eat late at night or when not hungry,
. They suffer from fluctuations in weight,
. They consume food until they feel uncomfortably full,
. They suffer from an anxious and depressed mood,
. They eat within any two hour period a quantity of food bigger than a non sufferer would eat in the same period of time and feeling a lack of control over the whole episode,
. They have low self-esteem,
. They have no desire for sex,
. Their food is eaten rapidly without chewing,
. They hide food,
. They hoard food,
. They try out various diets,
. They believe that life will be much better if they lose weight,
. If there is a disappointment in their life or they feel stressed or unhappy they try to cope with the various situations by consuming food,
. They avoid social function in which food will be present,
. They eat food when not hungry,
. They feel ashamed and guilty about their over their overeating,
. They eat alone or in secret as they feel embarrassed as to the enormous quantity they consume,
. They tend to have suicidal thoughts,
Some of the complications that can arise as a result of binge eating are:
High blood pressure, depression, anxiety, mood swings, shortness of breath, irregular periods, cancers, type 2 diabetes, upper respiratory problems, high cholesterol levels, stress, deterioration of bones, stroke, skin problems, suicidal tendencies, pregnancy complications, insomnia, gall bladder, liver and kidney disease, arthritis, decrease in mobility, obesity, heart disease, cardiac arrest and death.

Binge Eating Disorder - Do You Have It?
<p>Binge Eating Disorder - Do You Have It?<br>By <a href=”http://ezinearticles.com/?expert=Debra_Gropp”>Debra Gropp</a></p>
<p>What exactly is binge eating disorder? It is defined as consuming large quantities of food within a very short period of time until the person feels uncomfortably full and/or sick. It is similar to bulimia except there is no form of purging involved following a binge episode.</p>
<p>Those who suffer from binge eating disorder usually feel out of control during an episode followed by guilt and shame afterwards. Most people who experience these binges use food as a way to numb themselves in order to deal with emotions that they are unwilling or unable to deal with.</p>
<p>Because we live in such a hurried, stress-laden society, binge eating has become more and more common. It is a way to cope with excess frustration, anger, anxiety, or grief. The majority of people who have binge eating disorder may suffer from chronic depression and other serious emotional problems.</p>
<p>Do you have binge eating disorder? There are certain symptoms that signify you may have the disorder if they occur more than occasionally.</p>
<p>-Eating too much food too quickly.</p>
<p>-Eating very large amounts of food whether you are hungry or not.</p>
<p>-Eating until you are sick or miserable.</p>
<p>-Feel excessive shame, guilt, disgust, anger and/or depression after bingeing.</p>
<p>-Know that your eating is raging out of control and feel helpless to do anything about it.</p>
<p>If you do suspect you have binge eating disorder, you are not alone. In the United States, it is the most common eating disorder. Most people who suffer from the disorder are severely obese but it can affect anyone. It is more common in women than in men.</p>
<p>Do you think you are a binge eater? If so, what can you do? The first words of advice are to avoid unhealthy diet practices like skipping meals, eating only certain foods, drastically limiting calories and/or cutting out foods that you love to eat.</p>
<p>These practices are unhealthy and dangerous and should never be used if you are trying to lose weight. The only path to effective and permanent weight loss is to follow a <a TARGET=”_NEW” href=”http://www.loseweight-burnfat.com”>healthy diet and exercise program</a>.</p>
<p>If you are challenged by a healthy weight loss regimen and suffer from depression, anxiety or other emotional issues, it is wise to seek professional advice from someone who specializes in the eating disorder field. They can help you find the right path to wellness.</p>
<p>There are many dangers associated with eating disorders, binge eating disorder, being no different. Binge eaters suffer from frequent illnesses due to the large volume of sugars and fats that they consume. These types of foods do not provide any nutrient value for the body, causing the body to break down.</p>
<p>This, in turn, increases the risk for many chronic diseases and conditions. The more you indulge in binge eating and the more overweight you are, the more you increase the risk for diabetes, heart disease, and high blood pressure.</p>
<p>If you suffer from binge eating disorder and feel helpless, remember, there IS help for you. Never be afraid to ask for it. There are professionals who are trained specifically in the area of eating disorders who are dedicated to helping you overcome the disease. Most people who seek professional treatment do very well.</p>

Binge Eating Men
Binge Eating - Men Also At Risk
By Kristin Gerstley
Binge Eating Disorder affects just about as many men as it does women, even though the stereotype is that eating disorders are thought to be a women’s disorder. This stereotype is incorrect. There are 25 million people that struggle daily with Binge Eating Disorder. Out of that 25 million, you may be surprised to know that 40% are men. According to Wikipedia.com, this means that three women for every two men suffer from Binge Eating Disorder.
There are different reasons as to why men develop Binge Eating Disorder. One cause is if they play or played sports sometime in their life that required them to be thin or to lose a lot of weight for a particular competition, such as a wrestling match or running. Football players and body builders are still at risk, but it is lower since these sports require some meat and muscles in order to be successful. Another reason is that the chosen profession calls for thinness, such as modeling and acting. Men feel a pressure, just as women do, to maintain a level of thinness when they are in the public eye and when they are in looked at.
A man is more at risk for developing Binge Eating Disorder at a older age than a woman does, especially if the man had a tendency to be overweight at a child. This is because growing up a man believes that he needs to be strong and be able to protect not only himself, but also a female. If he is thin, this translates to fragile and he will see himself as not being powerful and not being able to get the things that he wants in life because he is considered weak.
Treatment for men is the same as women; although, men are more reluctant to visit a professional since eating disorders are considered to be female difficulties. The professional will go into detail to find out why the man comforts himself with food. Once the reason why he binges comes to the surface, the professional can give him ideas of how to change his behaviors. Once this happens and once the man feels comfortable with the professional, then the journey to recovery begins.
Clearly binge eating disorder is not only a female disorder, as many males are affected too. Regardless of being male or female, it is important to admit that your relationship with food is not healthy and to seek help on how to make it healthy once again.

Living with Binge Eating Disorder
Live Life to the Fullest Even With a Binge Eating Disorder
By Kristin Gerstley
“I don’t want to get to the end of my life and find that I have just lived the length of it. I want to have lived the width of it as well.”
- Diane Ackerman
I know this has happened to all of us at one time in our life or another. You are face-to-face with something that you’ve always wanted to do, stop binge eating disorder, but something stops you. Instead of accepting something that’s always appealed to you, the words “no thank you” come out of your mouth. Instead of asking for something you want, you find yourself too afraid to even ask.
For as long as I can remember, I’ve always wanted to help people. I was never sure how I would do that, but I knew that it was something that I was extremely passionate about. I want to make a difference in people’s lives. In college, I thought about being a teacher, but then I wasn’t sure that I was passionate about it enough. I switched to marketing, but then didn’t think that I would get much out of doing that. I was lost as to how to achieve my dream of helping people. I would wrack my brain over and over to try to see what things I was good at so I could help someone. Nothing came to mind. It was frustrating.
Once I told my husband about my binge eating disorder and after I was in therapy, I just knew that I was supposed to help people with binge eating disorder. I just had a good feeling about it. The good feeling lasted about as long as it could until I started thinking that I would have to share my struggles with binge eating disorder with strangers and people that already knew me. I started to take a step back because I didn’t want to make myself that vulnerable. I knew that I could help people, but something inside blocked me from doing anything about it for some time.
My mind would race about all of the things that I could do to benefit others with sharing my story. But then I would argue with myself saying “No one will care. I’m just a nobody. What will people think?” But then I remembered searching on the Internet for other success stories from people who had overcome binge eating disorder and finding nothing. “Just try it and see what happens. What have you got to lose?”
Finally without thinking too much about it, I started writing down everything that I could about my experience with binge eating disorder. I looked over my entire journal writings and realized that I had a lot of good information to share. I stopped thinking and worrying about putting myself out there, and realized that if I was going to help someone - this was just what I needed to do. I spent many days in my office just writing my binge eating disorder eBook, and not focusing any amount of energy on worrying about it.
If I wouldn’t have challenged myself to keep moving forward, I wouldn’t have had the opportunity to develop great relationship with many of you. I wouldn’t have had the chance to read the emails that bring tears to my eyes. I wouldn’t have had the chance to be doing what I absolutely love. You know many people hate their jobs. They do not like getting up and going to work everyday. I’m so thankful that I listened to that voice in my head that kept on pushing me to do this because I wake up every morning and can’t wait to check my email and work on all of the great things that I have planned. I feel truly blessed to be doing what I’m doing.
When you do the things that you’ve always wanted to do, you expand your comfort zone, discover something new about yourself, and have a lot of fun doing it. The next time you have the chance to do something, don’t wait so long. Do the uncomfortable by going through with it and saying “yes”! You do have the power to change your relationship with food and stop binge eating disorder from progressing anymore!

Commit to Stop Binge Eating
Commit to End Binge Eating
By Kristin Gerstley
When you want to stop binge eating, you need to make a decision and change your old habits. Perhaps these habits have been around for years, but no matter how long they have been your fallback, you need to make changes and create new, positive habits for yourself. You need to end the pattern of binge eating. You need to stop playing games with yourself.
How do you do this, you say? First and foremost, you need to make the decision and commit to fixing this disorder that has control of you and your life. Make a commitment now to yourself. Do not put it off until tomorrow, next week, or even next month. Like Oprah says, “The space to live in is not ‘I’ll try’, not ‘I want to’, not even ‘I really want to’. It’s ‘I have decided’.” When you make that decision once and for all, you are declaring a commitment. You are stating this to yourself and the Universe and this is powerful!
One of the most important things that you can do is to start seeing yourself as you truly are. Don’t look at yourself as the person that is a victim of your circumstance. Instead help yourself to get over the situations in your past that gave you that particular mentality. Do whatever it takes so that you can literally transform yourself into the person that you want to be, without hindering yourself and falling back into the old habits that you have become so used to.
Another important thing to remember is that no one is perfect. It is not necessary to constantly stab yourself for binging. We all have flaws. You need to let it go and keep on moving forward. All of the added stress that goes along with criticizing your every move will just keep you at a standstill and that will be enough to drive you crazy. Realize that you may have binged, but don’t keep nagging yourself about it. Let it go!
Finally, no matter how many times you fall down, always pick yourself right back up and press on. Do not dwell on your failure; instead continuing moving forward, keeping your goals fresh on your mind.
Most importantly, you deserve to feel good about yourself. Make YOU your number one priority and always strive to live your life to the fullest. Always keep yourself in mind. Believe in yourself and know that you will get past this and that the life that you have always wanted and dreamed about is just around the corner.

How I was able to stop binge eating
Binge Eating No More - I Used to Eat the Whole Refrigerator Plus Everything in the Cupboards
By Jana S.
What should you do if you feel like you are about to lose yourself in an eating binge?
I struggled with binge eating for many years. And I am about to share some ideas with you of alternative things you can do instead of bingeing. Choosing to do more healthy behaviors instead of bingeing is very important in recovery from binge eating.
However, I must tell you that for most people, another essential part of recovery and healing from binge eating is to do some personal internal work on what is causing you to turn to food as coping strategy in your life.
So, yes, these alternative healthy choices are very helpful and important to gaining freedom from bingeing - but you need to also know that working with a group or a trained compassionate counselor will also help you tremendously and is just as important as the following list of alternatives. Okay? Great!
Remember to be kind and gentle to yourself when you are dealing with that all-consuming desire to go crazy with food and binge. See the desire to binge as an opportunity to really delve into what might be causing the pain in you that makes you want to turn to food to deal with your life in that moment.
Here are just a few of the things I choose to do avoid a binge:
-Take a relaxing bath
- Go for a long walk
- Do yoga - I love this for taking my mind off food. I get to breathe deeply, stretch my body, and enjoy the break from stress and pressure.
- Go out to my garage and beat on my punching bag - it relieves my stress and helps get any frustration out of me that I might be holding inside.
- Put on my headphones and listen to several of my favorite upbeat songs - and dance around if I feel like it!
- Get away from temptation. Since recovering from binge eating, I no longer bring foods into my home that trigger my binge eating tendencies. But if you can’t control the foods that are allowed into your home and your roommate or your spouse has stashes of foods in your home that you like to binge on then you need to prepared with a strategy that will get you away from the food that is calling out to you. If you have tempting food in your home, get out of your house and take a break. Go to a friend’s home and visit, or meet a friend at a park and walk together. Go to church. Pray.
