Everyone here has really great responses. I thought I'd share my experience in case that adds something. I gained weight while working on my steps. My sponsor explained it to me that I was still in resentment, fear, etc. and blocked from God. Once I had a spiritual awakening and got to the point of living in 10, 11, and 12, that sorta thing would happen less, she said.
I did find that by living in 10, 11, and 12, I was able to pause and ask God to help me do His will. This helped put space between my compulsion to binge eat, with not feeding into that compulsion. It wasn't God's will for me to binge eat. I was taught that God didn't want me to harm myself with alcohol, food, or anything. Hope that helps.
