How do you stop binge eating/ starving yourself

[zygos_old]

I think I picked up this from my mom because she would binge eat on Monday then starve herself for the rest of the next three-four weeks and I have been doing this lately.

Get out of this cycle before your body adapts and itll be harder to get out.
Try to focus on eating cleaner if you are havibg trouble with cravings dont deny them complelty or this will lead to binges just try to understand your limit.
Just be patient with yourself

Besides learned behavior, we have a tendency to binge/starve ourselves because of our emotions. The first thing to do is to try and recognize your triggers. Sometimes it's boredom, sometimes it's a control thing.

Idk I binge eat when I am sad/bored. When I realize I binged I try not to eat for a while.

You starve yourself because you subconsciously punish yourself for your binge-eating behaviour, you have an ED, stop the binge-eating then the starvation will stop

Take retatrutide

Well, you recognize that cycle doesn't work for you, right?

Normally when you recognize you messed up, the best solution is to stop eating in that moment (even if you end up throwing away food) and then go on your normal meal cycle. So if you binged at 9AM, and your next meal is at 12PM, just wait until 12PM but still eat at 12PM. Even if you're full, have a small snack.

You want to train your body to get used to a schedule. You will naturally fix the behavior over time when you do what your body needs, not what your brain feels like is a punishment.
