After ‘The Biggest Loser,’ Their Bodies Fought to Regain Weight

Remember that relapse is part of recovery. Fall down seven, get up eight. Corny, but it got me through my hard times (and still does!)

DO NOT HAVE CHOCOLATE IN YOUR HOUSE. Ever. Even shitty chocolate. Even someone else's chocolate. If you know you'll binge on it, get rid of it.

Remember that chocolate will exist today, tomorrow, next week, next year. There will be a time in your life when you can eat chocolate again. For me, part of what always brought on bingeing was feeling like OH MY GOD I WILL NEVER EAT THIS FOOD AGAIN IN MY LIFEEEE. I had to, and still have to, remind myself that I can eat the food again so I don't have to EAT IT ALL RIGHT NOW OH GOD.

I actually had a friend who successfully resolved cravings in a completely different way - she'd binge on the food she craved until she'd never ever crave it again. I've never been able to bring myself to try her approach, but it worked for her.

Alternate:

have the bitterest chocolate around(90-100%), such that you can only eat a square inch or so at a time.
