A member asked:

Say i have hives, will drinking a beer worsen it?

STOP: Between binging and exercising you sound like there is an eating problem. Might be best to work with a dietician. If you don't think that would work, consider psychotherapy. Binging/exercising seems like trying to control life thru polarities. That generally doesn't work.
