Effective Solutions to Control Binge Eating

Chapter 1- What Is Binge Eating and the Binge Eating Cycle?
Holidays and family gatherings often serve as occasions for even those without food issues to overeat. There's nothing particularly worrisome about having an extra piece of pie now and again, but when uncontrollable consumption becomes a regular fixture in your life, you could be engaging in an activity known as binge eating. The good news is that there are ways to break out of the binge eating cycle. With treatment and support, even the most food-addicted individuals can find hope.
Common Binge Eating Features
The basic concept behind binge eating is compulsion. More often than not, this compulsion is driven by depression or, at the very least, extreme mood swings. The desire to turn to food is one that often has its roots in childhood or one's early 20s. Gorging episodes usually last two hours or so, though some binge eaters may spread their episodes throughout the day. If you start eating based on cravings – not hunger – and continue eating well past the point where you are full, it could be a sign of binge eating.
The Binge Eating Cycle
Binge eating provides comfort for a certain amount of time, but it is almost inevitably followed by feelings of guilt and regret, a pattern of weight gain, and increased self-loathing. Since individuals who binge eat use food as an escape from these very feelings, it's easy to see how a vicious cycle can begin. An outsider may find it hard to imagine why someone who feels bad about their weight would turn to food to solve those feelings, but it is a very common psychological response. Without therapy, it can be extraordinarily difficult to break the cycle.
Common Symptoms
If you aren't sure whether you or someone you love suffers from a binge eating disorder, here are some of the most common symptoms. If you experience many of these symptoms, it could be a sign that you need help:
Your eating habits lead to embarrassment and shame
You feel out of control when eating your favorite foods
You feel panicked in situations such as a trip to the grocery store
You continue to eat after your stomach is full
You hide food from others and eat in secret
The Effects of Binge Eating
Unfortunately, a real binge eating disorder cannot be ignored. Not only does a regular pattern of food abuse often lead to obesity, but it can lead to a host of physical and emotional problems. Health issues are common amongst people with food issues, some of which can be very serious. Depression, Type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, certain cancers, joint pain, and gall bladder disease are but a sampling of the problems that can accompany a binge eating disorder.
Causes
Due to the prevalence of obesity and obesity-related diseases in America, doctors and scientists have placed a great deal of focus on finding the root causes beneath binge eating and food compulsion. Genetics, experiences, and emotional makeup are usually at the heart of any serious eating disorder. Biologically, a dysfunctional hypothalamus gland can impair a person's ability to understand when they are satiated. Some studies have shown that serotonin deficiencies could be to blame for eating disorders in many cases.
Not all binge eating disorders are rooted in biology, of course. At a time where obesity is a widespread cultural problem, the pressure to be thin has never been greater. Women, particularly, must face a society with little tolerance for even mild amounts of extra weight. Additionally, when parents use food to reward their children, it can create deep psychological connections that can be almost impossible to break without help.
Fighting the Urge to Binge
A comprehensive approach to solving a binge eating addiction should include professional therapy and – in some cases – prescribed medication. That said, there are some things you can do on your own to curb your tendency to binge. Here are five effective strategies for overcoming the urge:
Find an alternative – Since the majority of binge eaters do so because it helps them manage stress, one of the key elements of beating the addiction lies in finding alternative methods of coping. Exercise, deep breathing, music, and distracting activities can all help you manage stress in a healthy, sustainable way.
Eat regularly – Binge eaters often have very irregular eating schedules. For instance, there may be no planned mealtimes. By cutting back to three pre-defined meals per day, sprinkled with a set amount of health snacks in between, you can gain a measure of control over your eating habits. A regular eating schedule can also help you avoid the extreme cravings that may accompany skipped meals.
De-Clutter your home – Throw out all of the bad
food in your home. If your cupboards are stocked with Twinkies and Doritos, it will be that much harder to walk the straight and
