Q. I have a problem with binge eating. I love to eat and i do it way to much. I always over eat a lot. Sometimes around 4,000-6,000 calories a day. Do you have any tips to stop?
A. sounds like you might have an eating disorder (yes, binge eating is an eating disorder too)
i would recommend therapy, i have had eating disorders pretty much all my life (im 19) and therapy has really helped me.
I have recently been bulimic and the therapy for that has actually helped me to reduce my binges to about once a month - and before i was doing it pretty much everyday!
So lucky me, my bulimia is now in remission. Too bad i still have something like EDNOS... but for you it sounds like therapy can help is my point.

Where can I learn if I have binge eating disorder and how can I stop binge eating?
Q. I've been struggling with food for longer than I care to admit. I have researched online, but not 100% sure if I do have binge eating disorder, or if I do, how to stop binge eating. Any ideas or resources would be good so I can learn more. thanks.
A. As far as knowing if you have binge eating disorder, see if any of these sound like you...
1. Are you tired of hiding food wrappers at the bottom of the garbage in hope that no one will see the âevidenceâ?
2. Are you ready to put on a smile for the world and keep it on instead of crawling back into your âsad worldâ when you are alone?
3. Are you ready to end your private nightmare filled with sadness and start a new life filled with excitement and happiness?
4. Do you constantly feel like something is wrong with you and use food to ease the pain?
As far as learning more, I have provided two resources on binge eating disorder. One is a site about a girl who suffered with binge eating disorder for many years, and the other is a binge eating video on YouTube from the same girl.

How to control binge eating and lose weight?
Q. How to control Binge eating when my mind just tries to justify it?
I tell myself oh it's ok not a big deal but it really it. Chocolate takis chips and such is not healthy food at all. Also how to lose 10 more pounds? I'm 130 at 5'3" and I want to weigh 120

A. The way to control binge eating is to understand your cravings. It's usually because you're diet is so strict that your body actually starts screaming for a vacation. Say to yourself "it's ok that I want chocolate chip cookies, it's ok that I want cheesecake" or whatever it might be. The sooner you do that, the sooner you will come face to face with it and realize that it's not actually big deal that you want it. One thing that works is literally letting yourself go crazy once or twice a week. If you are doing both diet and exercise, it won't be a big deal. If not, I would strongly sugess adding both to your routine.
Loosing ten more pounds - doing high intensity exercises for 3, 10 minute intervals will help get rid of those pounds. jumping rope, sprint intervals at the track, some kind of "more intense than usual" cardio will do it
