TIps: getting past a binge

If your feeling sick/in pain post binge:

• Sit up straight, raise your arms up and stretch back (as you would do to stretch your abs) and take a deep breath in through your mouth, then as you relax let it out slowly
• Drink some cold water (slowly!), it helps you feel a bit better to pee 
• Lay on your left side with a pillow beneath your mid section and relax 
• If you have a thumper:

Then lay down on your back and use it on your stomach (move it around in downward movements) for 10-15 minutes. This helps with getting trapped air out which causes the bloating and pain. If you do not have a thumper, simply massage your stomach with your hands or set up a few pillows and lay on them with them under your stomach, the pressure will have the same effect.  

Post Binge:

• Drink some ice cold water and take a few laxatives
• Do some cardio (running is best) 30-60 minutes post-binge to speed up digestion
• When you go to the bathroom / start to feel empty again: drink more water
• 
  

Burn off as much as possible:

• Cardio is always best to aid in digestion and help laxatives do their job.
• Do the "100 Workout" 1-2 hours post binge , drink lots of water 

Recovering:

• Water fast up to 12 hours post-binge to help prevent bloating (have a meal plan in place) 
• If you didn't have a movement then take 1 or 2 more laxatives, workout again within the 12 hours
• Make sure you get AT LEAST 72 ounces of water in you to push everything out and prevent dehydration/constipation/bloating
• Your binge has NOT passed until your stomach feels empty/you start feeling hunger again or your stomach feels flat again / empty of air.
