*I am posting this in the anorexia section instead of the binge-eating section because my diagnosis is anorexia (or EDNOS)*

Do any of you have days when it seems like all you want is crap food? Maybe cookies and ice cream if you have a sweet tooth, or chips and cheese and things like that if you're into salty food?

I have days like that. Sometimes it is entire days, sometimes it's just part of the day. I have a sweet tooth so it's always sweet things that I want.

I go through most days trying to 'watch my calories' but I do eat a reasonable amount. In my recovery, I am trying to eat 3 bigger meals a day with snacks in between if I can stomach it. I almost always have some dessert after dinner.

But on days like today, I just want cookies or chocolate or ice cream all day. I can't seem to get the thoughts of eating the sweet stuff out of my head so I just go ahead and eat it. Sometimes I feel guilty afterwards and make myself sick, sometimes I think that I don't care and go on stuffing my face.

How do you deal with days like this? I just had some crap instead of having a proper meal for lunch, then felt guilty and threw up a little. Now I want more food!

Through the course of my ED, I have lost the ability to eat sweet things in moderation. If I open a packet of anything, I'll finish it within half a day, if not an hour!
