Q. I am sad, and very ashamed, to say that I binge ate again. It lasted 2 days with probably 6000 to 7000 calories each day. So how long will it take my stomach to get back to normal?
A. If you take stool softeners after eating normal size meals, two days.
How long does it take to really recover from an eating disorder?
Q. Im eating quite well now and am the correct weight for my height and havent purged in 6 weeks. However every week or so i seem to binge eating and then feel really guilty, i want to be fully better without ANY distorted eating?
A. You're the only one who is able to stop your eating disorder for good.
You have to have the will power, and beleive you can get better. Write a diary and focus and what you are doing wrong. Plus talk to people you trust everytime you feel like bingeing or not eating normally.

How can i stop binge eating?
Q. Almost every single day i will binge eat to the point where i consume over 3500 calories! Thank god i have a fast metabolism, but i don't want to eat this way for the rest of my life. So please can someone give me tips to prevent eating a lot or how to keep my mind occupied on something else other then food? I will appreciate any advice given.
A. I suffered with binge eating, gained a stone and a half in 2 months with it, recovered and then started again. I am recovering again. You should read the book 'I can make you thin' by Paul mcKenna, it says you can eat what you want as long as you eat SLOWLY, CHEW FOOD WELL AND STOP WHEN YOU START TO FEEL FULL. This helped me become more aware of my stomachs signals giving me more power over my binges. But you must read the book to understand fully. Also, research positve affirmations for binge eating disorder. These helped me get more positive about stopping it. Before I eat something or start a binge, I take a drink, wait 15 mins and say to myself, do I really need this and how will I feel after I have eaten it? I try to respect my body. Also, I kind of frighten myself sometimes, binge eating damages the stomach and can lead to obesity. These possibilities make me stop. Im sorry I cant say there is a magic solution, but it just takes time and practice. Treat your body the best you can and you will get there. I have recovered so much without any professional help and so can anyone if they try hard enough. You make think that you have no self control but you would be surprised. Best of luck!!!
