First, be kind to yourself. Classify your experience as a mistake, but do not classify yourself as a failure.
Second, get a *live* support network, people you can call when the cravings hit, preferably of people who's walked the path you're on.
Third, start writing about your struggle, even if it amounts to "vomiting" on a computer screen. Once you see your insanity in black and white, the rational/nurturing part of you can write back in response.
Fourth, and this is only my experience, OA is a great support group. They don't know jack about nutrition, so they focus on the spiritual dimension of the eating compulsion and provide a good live support network.
