Yes: Binge eating involves consuming a large amount of food in a discrete period of time. What you can do is to limit youself to purchasing only single portions of foods at a time so as to limit the availability of these foods. Also eating with others and engaging in activities that remove you from food especially when hungry so as to avoid the urge to binge.
