tips on how to binge less/get out of a binge cycle ! - a thread *.✧
okay so first off i just wanted to say that those tips might not be useful for everyone but to me they were very helpful !!

try going out for a walk, exercising, watching tv or anything that can take your mind off of food! i noticed that a lot of my binges occurred everytime i was feeling bored so make sure you always have something to do :)

4. smaller but more frequent snacks /
i think instead of having 1-3 bigger meals its better to have smaller but more frequent snacks! try having a small snack every 1-2hrs and make sure you're eating something that'll keep you full (i.e: eggs, nuts & veggies)
