[QUOTE="zand, post: 939574, member: 85197"] I agree that carbs are a major culprit in making us feel the need to binge. Often there isn't a lot of nutrition in them, so the body just craves more and more food. Carbs can make leptin resistance worse, which means you feel more hungry. I needed counselling to get to the bottom of what it was that caused me to binge. I think a lot of T2s have a wrong relationship with food. Nowadays I have a much better idea of when I am really hungry and don't view food as a treat. Treats are other things like a long bath or a walk in the sunshine. Food is just fuel. Carbs aren't the right fuel for my body unless they are from leafy green veg. If binge eating is a big problem for you, you could ask your GP if there is a counsellor you could see. Mine referred me to one for 8 sessions. [/QUOTE]
