I think I am a compulsive overeater. I don't purge (well, I did once). I have a hard time controlling my weight because once I start eating I can't stop. My last binge was just last night. I acutally tried to purge, but couldn't. I feel horrible today and so bloated. I'm not a teenager. I'm 38 and lost 65 pounds in a healthful manner. Now my eating is out of control and I think about food all day long.

hey, I can understand where you're coming from. I had a bingeing problem for a couple years, went from being nearly underweight to being quite overweight... within a year. Hated my life then. I had no life! Messed up my high school years. I'd try to purge sometimes and became bulimic, which I thought was an improvement since I wouldn't be gaining weight anymore. But now I think it would have been more fun to take up barefoot tap-dancing on floors made of broken glass. I'm now working on ending my bulimic behavior.
Anyway, I think you can find understanding people here, if that's what you need. I'm here if you want to PM me or whatever. I hope you find support here, or wherever else you decide to look.
I'm 19, btw.

Thank you for your kind words. Food controls me and I hate it.
Empty is pure, starving is the cure.
The stomach is a muscle, and like all muscles, it needs rest.
You're not winning this battle tummy ha!
