You aren't kidding about binging being hard on the body and mind. I feel terrible afterwords, and mentally, emotionally and spiritually it's very draining.

Thanks for the kind words.
Thanks so much for the quote & reply... I really appreciate it.
I hope its ok to share with you that I recently started to go to AA (3 meetings now) and have found an incredible amount of strength, hope & promise as well as a wonderful group of people who get it & me. Just one of the many options out there. I really believe any of the in person, face to face programs offer something that no other online programs provide.

In regards to Buddhism, I am also into it. Here is one of my favorite sites that offers some very good talks including some on addiction Dharma Seed - Dharma Talks

I really enjoyed listening to this talk yesterday Dharma Seed - Tara Brach's Dharma Talks

All of the best in your recovery
