A. Start eating a balanced diet., don't just an apple, a day, because that is a serious problem, as you are not eating much a day, you get even hungrier the next day, so I would eat a healthy Breakfast, Lunch and Dinner, and a bit of fat, because, that is a balanced diet, then you will become slimmer in no time, trust me.
Problem eating to much.?
Q. I have a big problem. I think I'm addicted to food. When there is food around I have to keep eating and eating until its gone. I'm doing it right now. This has never been a huge deal to me because I seem to stay the same size (I'm actually quite skinny) but I just quit smoking so now I'm afraind I may start eating even more and gaining weight. I'd also like tips on how to stop binge eating just for health issues. I'm not going to be young my whole life, so I'd like to stop this habit while I can.
A. 1) Learn about healthy foods and what foods help to fill you up. Educate yourself
2) Only cook or provide the correct quantity of food for one person in any one sitting. Never more. Lay this on the table and eat it.....teach yourself to leave at least one mouthful of it.
3) Only have healthy foods in the house. It seem difficult at first, but you must re educate your taste buds and stomach
4)If you are hungry in between meals, eat carrot sticks or celery or fruit and drink water....often people mistake thirst for hunger, so try this first.
Basically you have recognized a cycle and that is the first major step to breaking the cycle. Now equip yourself with the information to allow yourself to eat healthily for life.

I can't stop binge eating?
Q. first thing's first, that is so not like me
for the past week i have been bingeing (like 3000+ cals each day) and i weighed 142lb (5'8") before and now i'm too scared to weigh myself.
i've also been swimming for an hour a day most days this week, and my bones have not been cracking this much since my last growth spurt (i haven't grown in about a year. i'm 14 and female) so is it possible i'm growing again and thats why i'm bingeing?
And I used to fit a US 6-8 (UK/AUS 10-12) but now i'm pretty sure i'm just an 8 :( (i have a very small frame so I should be like a 2-4)
i don't really look that much bigger (probably thanks to the swimming. in fact my upper thighs are smaller and my thighs are more toned), except in the tummy but thats intestinal bulk, i havent had laxatives in ages either (i take 2 once a week or once a fortnight just to clear everything out) so yeah.
but yeah, is it possible i'm growing or something, and that's why i'm binge eating?
coz last year before xmas i was on a diet for ages, and then over xmas (before/after it, for about 2 months) i was eating normally and maintaing my weight of 140-142. but now i can't stop :( i know it's not stress coz i'm not stressed. my best friend moved schools but i still have heaps of friends, and i talk to her every day anyway.
oh and my love handles are actually smaller too... for the first time in like ages.
and i know for sure i have been eating more than 3000 cals. i can name you the calories in just about every food. i want to stop eating so much but i just can't :( and there's no way i'm burning that much swimming coz i am a slow swimmer.
Normally, I do eat 5-6 small portions.
For those 2 months i was eating normal calories, and for all the time i was on a diet too.

A. Girls usually stop growing at 15 so you might still be growing. At 5'8 your weight at 142 lbs is OK even for a small frame.
You need to check your weight to see how much weight you have gained in the past week and if you have gained quite a bit then it may be advisable to reduce your calorie intake a bit to avoid gaining more weight.
If you must binge perhaps you could try binging on fruit as it helps to fill you up and is low in calories.
