Hello Katie,

I am suffering from this problem also, I have been binge eating for a few weeks now, mainly sugar (chocolate, cake etc..) Most days I feel like sh*t, fat, bloated, lethargic and it is depression.

I started taking a supplement called SAMe for the depression, I didn't want to take presciption medication, and its helping a little, I am starting a food journal tommorrow on the advise of my therapist, I need to stop eating sugar completely. Even fruit, when I start with even just one candy its an all out sugar fest for days.

Exercise, I know its hard to get moving when your depressed, but even a 20 minute walk helps. So I am trying to make exercise a daily routine.

This is harder for me to do that quit drinking. I am obsessed with sugar and got so freaked out tonight by the thought of giving it up, I had a binge on scones???? Its literally making me sick!!

Love, Rose
