I know why I should stop but I can't.

...See more I've struggled with BED since middle school. I'm talking hiding food to eat later, eating till I feel physically ill... All that. In college I was able to stop binging by not eating in general. I lost over [edited by Anomalia for weight specifics] pounds. Worked out for hours each day. Ate maybe [edited] calories. Everyone said I looked great. Now I've gained back that 65 pounds and then some. I binge again. I eat even when I don't want to eat and I can't freaking stop. I'll be sitting on the couch thinking "I shouldn't eat im not even hungry" and before I know it I've eaten a whole box of ice cream pops. I feel ill. I I just don't know how to stop. I don't want to do it. I hate what it's done to my body. I'm a driven person. Graduated honors in my masters program. Professional job. Good relationship. And still I eat in secret and until I'm ill a few times a week at least. What at do I do? I'm lost. I don't know how to fix my relationship with food. When I diet I end up restricting and that's not good either.
