Ive been binging several times a week for the past month and a half. I have no idea what to do break the cycle. I am constantly bloated and I am pretty sure I have gained like 12 pounds. How does everyone avoid binges?

If you haven't been to your GP to seek help - suggest you do so - explain what's going on and ask for a referral. Bulimia is an illness and needs treatment like any other illness. ABC also have a good helpline. In the interim I found it helpful to make sure I had activities after all meals - or friends etc around so that I could not easily binge. I also made sure my store cupboards weren't overly stocked - especially for me with trigger foods. Hope you will seek and get help quickly to resolve this problem.

You have extreme hunger and these episodes of ‘binging’ are perfectly normal and once your body realises that there isn’t a food shortage the episodes will stop. I know it’s scary as I’m going through the same but I watched a Tabitha farrah vlog and that really helped.
