Banned from Binge Eating Disorder forum for discussing fasting...
As a means of healing!! And it was my first time on there!! The subject of the thread was "Is fasting taboo here?" And I just asked if anybody had any experience with it because on that site I couldn't find anyone who had!! I just wanted to feel safe recovering from my binge eating and eliminating my cravings by fasting, which I have never done for more than a day or 2 before. I no longer am a member of the site at all, even though I ate a 5500 calorie breakfast, almost puked riding my bike into town where I put down another binge close to that size and remarkably overcoming the horrible emotions that usually follow.
I guess they don't want my support over there. With the help of you all, I'll be healing all kinds of different issues in my life and the life of others. PITY THE FOOL!!
As you can see, I am a believer that fasting can be the healthiest thing one can do for himself. Bodybuilders do it for crying out loud!
I guess it can be a scary thought for binge eaters. I have struggled with the idea of "becoming" one of these super healthy, spiritually evolved fasters. Can you all relate? The feeling comes and goes, but meanwhile i've been getting fat.. Anyway, I guess I don't belong there.
There is very little talk of purging on the site and it is obviously discouraged. And fasting is apparently viewed as an extreme form of purging, even though this is specifically NOT a bulimia support group... I'm really worried about the way the people on this site are reading... I feel like they're wasting their time in such a closed environment.
Okay thats enough venting. Thanks for reading.

My main question is, anyone out there who has overcome binge eating SUCCESSFULLY by fasting.
