Big thanks to everyone who responded... (and sorry for lab between posts) Fern and mbt... It actually does make me feel somewhat better knowing that I'm not alone in the only one with this situation. It makes me feel a bit less crazy. :o) Incidentally, it's not so much the Hollywood image of thinness that drives me, but the image of health. E.g. the healthiest (fittest) women in the gym are quite thin.... discussions on this board comparing women from Europe and Asia, and how thin/healthy/attractive the women are from certain countries.... it's more things like that that make me self-conscious. And you know, it's not the first time I've been called a perfectionist... Anyway, I am starting to be convinced that the more positive attitude is what will keep me from binging. If I felt good about myself from eating dessert, or the restaurant dinner that was fried with way too much oil... I'm quite sure that letting myself feel like crap immediately is what triggers the downward spiral into the all-out binge. I've found that I can actually eat just a couple cookies if I happen to be feeling relatively good about myself on a particular day. Hmm... I'm the ultimate pessimist though, this could be difficult. But what in life isn't, right? :oP Thanks again.... I think I might stick around on Vegsource for a while -Tethya-
