Can't stop binge eating (pre op)
I'm only a few weeks into my first month of six of my supervised diet. I have lost 12.4 lbs so far. I noticed last week I started to binge eat again. I find myself knit picking at things each time I go near the kitchen. They are healthy things, but its still binge eating. I don't go over my 1500 calories and I still count everything I put in my mouth and log it in MyFitnessPal.
My worry is, what if I gain all that 12 lbs back before my second weigh in, in a couple weeks. and I would have to start all over again. Everytime I say i'm going to get back on track with my diet I binge again.
Anyone else done this who is also a binge eater?
I am 10 years after surgery and still struggle with binge eating, or knit picking each time I go into the kitchen, so I get it. You are not alone.
My prayers are with you on your journey.

I would suggest you look for therapy for binge eating. Hopefully you can find a good counselor specializing in that eating disorder...
