Those posts that say “before you binge so this long list of tasks! bet you don’t want to binge anymore :) :) :)” are useless (no offense). So here’s just some of the things I do that seem to work.
BUT WAIT first, do this test. Ask yourself if you would eat fruits or vegetables, something healthy you don’t really like. If yes, then eat! You’re actually hungry and need the nutrients. If you ever feel weak or dizzy, remember to eat something (healthy!) as well. You want to be skinny, not dead. And if you want to be dead, I don’t want you to be dead. So stay safe, gorgeous.
Okay, so those posts that tell you to do things aren’t COMPLETELY wrong. Just keep yourself busy so you never bored-binge. Don’t ever get to the point where you need to tell yourself not to binge.
Chew gum. It keeps your mouth busy and also gives you some flavor. Also, it burns 13 calories an hour.
Mints are good too. Suck on them slowly, and not only will you be unable to eat in that time, but the minty taste will discourage you.
Speaking of mint, brush your teeth! No eating now that your teeth are clean, as well as the aftertaste. Round it off with a minty lip balm or apply nice lip gloss. Don’t ruin it by eating!
Exercise. I know it’s the last thing you want to do, but it really takes the hunger away. Promise. And plus, you’ll be burning calories instead of eating them.
Drink water, said the otter. It fills you up, and especially after exercise, you won’t want to eat for a while. Try to guzzle down as much as possible, until you feel sick. Be careful not to overdo it though, it is possible. Hint: Ice water burns more calories, but warm water fills you up more. Tea is nice as well, or any zero calorie drinks.
Eat your vitamins and pretend they’re the food you want. THIS ONE IS IMPORTANT. Tell yourself whenever you think of it that you can’t have your vitamins, so that when you finally do take them, it’ll feel like you’re indulging yourself. Works for me, anyways.
Ice is nice. Crunch crunch, mmmmm. Plus your mouth will go numb if you suck on ice long enough.
Sit down. Look at your thighs squish out. Bend over and watch your stomach roll. Really? You’re HUNGRY? Wow.
Scroll through tumblr until your eyes fall out. Not really, but you get the point.
Talk to someone! It’s a nice distraction.
Get FAR, FAR away from the food. If you have to, just freeze in place and don’t move until you know you’re not going to make a move to eat. Plan in advance and go somewhere you can’t possibly eat, i.e. the library.
Tell yourself you don’t NEED the food. This is a good meditation technique, telling yourself you don’t need to move, so don’t. Apply it to fasting.
Speaking of meditation, just do it! It helps strengthen your resolve, and calms you down. A+ recommended
Try to be vegetarian/vegan, it narrows down the foods you can eat and you don’t want to eat something you REALLY aren’t supposed to.
Engross yourself in a good book! Read read read. It’ll help you in life.
Imagine someone skinny you know. Would they eat that? Do you want to look like them?
Watch supersize vs. superskinny and do like the superskinnies do. I recommend the pilot and s5ep5. Just binge watch any show you like instead of binge eating!
