Binge eating hasn't been technically defined as a true eating disorder so asking your doctor won't get you the kind of help that you would get if you thought you had anorexia or something, but it may get you some sort of help such as recommended techniques or diets. I know how you feel, I recently lost 55 pounds but I have slowly gained it back...I've only kept off 35 now because I keep binging. Its hard but the first thing to solve that is you really have to look at what causes you to eat and solve those problems...is it boredom? Emotional eating? Once you solve those issues it will become much easier to use other things instead of eating to satisfy yourself. Good luck, I hope this helps!

if in doubt, talk to your parents and maybe a doctor.

i doubt it, but ask ur doctor or parent. ur most likely bingeing because you havn't lost any weight. it almost sub-consciously tells you that your failing, but your not, so you get the urge to binge because you are feeling upset. You are probably plateauing, just up the exercise some. good luck!!!!!!!!
