I've been thinking of lately what kind of example I've been setting for others. Sometimes not such a good one but then who am I to say? Being human sets an example too, doesn't it? We all go through phases in life and we all are on a journey heading somewhere. I'm trying to figure out where I'm going and where I want to be. I am 59 and since I'm older I've been thinking about what I hope to do for the rest of my life. That does not just include how I want to eat but what I really want to do in terms of trying to make a difference some how somewhere.

My B.E.D. made me unable to do much of anything I was so depressed along with it. Now that it is not running my life any more I'm looking to do something that matters.

I am allowing myself to slip back into my ED. I had a pb&j today with no plans of eating anything else. I feel so fat.

surrounded by all this junk food.

lots and lots of it

amazing how you just let it all get out of control- and you think you don't have too much left, but you're ordering new stuff all the time to top up the supply as it were.

probably going to be a bad few days

not good..... not bad.

think i'm somewhere in the middle at the moment

given how much junk food is around me, and given what i've actually eaten of it, it could be worse.

he's just worried about you

he's not trying to punish you, or make you feel upset, he's just worried

I'm sure you can eat a little, if not for him for everyone on this forum.

and getting bigger sucks, yes. I know it causes lots of problems.

but I think with our help you can manage it

I'm running out of food I don't have to actually cook. I have food to cook, just don't have the energy to do so. Add to that ED is back telling me not to eat. This living by myself makes it easier to listen to ED. Not sure what I am going to do. I have no funds to see my dietitian or even the gas to get there.

Feeling like a fake. A big fat fake.
I've been crying all evening because I just keep thinking about what if all this weight loss isn't real, what if I actually haven't lost anything, and what if this is it and my entire meaning and purpose in life is gone?

It's pathetic, but losing weight is literally the only purpose I have anymore and the fact that I'm starting to worry that I can't do that...I don't know how I would live with myself. People are always saying it's because there's 'nothing left to lose' but I KNOW there is more, I can feel it, I can see it, I can grab it.

I'm so frustrated and tired and angry and sad and everything else. Why does that little bullying voice have to make everything so damn difficult.
