Thank you. I got weighed and didn't weigh any more than I weighed at home. My dr. said I am doing a good job of losing weight, and getting my lab numbers down. I've had a lot of blood tests done and they all have gone down a lot and much closer to normal. So, it went very well. Now to figure out why I feel so down. Maybe it's the holidays coming up or other stuff. I don't know. Tomorrow is another day.

I used to weigh too much for me, multiple times per day, but I've been able to successfully limit myself to once per day for quite awhile now. Sometimes i know the number may be stressful, but for me its always much more stressful not knowing. One thing that helped me cut down to once per day weigh ins is where i keep the scale. Its slid under my dresser. I slide it out once while getting ready, then back out of sight it goes! |

Do you make yourself meal plans for the day/week? Do you think that would be helpful, or triggering? (I know you plan your shopping trips really well from another thread ) I hate to feel like others are controlling my food, but sometimes when ive made a plan of my own and stuck to it, it can help hit the "reset" button. I hope you feel better soon. |

Sorry you are feeling down. I don't like this time of year at all, holidays and food and fake happy pictures all over Facebook and in January, hit hard with everyone's diet stats, weight, pounds lost, exercise done, low cal recipes. I feel guilty I did not make a New Year's Resolution to lose weight (when of course, I am supposed to be gaining weight anyway). But I'd never make a resolution to gain weight, it just seems so contrary. Not that I can write all about it on Facebook either. Only a very small number of people in real life ever have known I've had an ED. Some of those may think I am over it. Some may sometimes see pictures of me and wonder if I have an ED, especially compared to the way I looked in high school. Nearly everyone in my high school class (1996) on FB has gained weight since high school, a couple stayed around the same, and I dramatically lost a very noticeable amount of weight, and I couldn't have been more than 5 lb. overweight to been with. __________________ Bipolar 1, PTSD, anorexia, panic disorder, ADHD Seroquel, Cymbalta, propanolol, buspirone, Trazodone, gabapentin, lamotrigine, hydroxyzine, There's a crack in everything.

The holidays can be hard. I don't even want to visit anyone. Don't want to have to watch what I eat and be ignored for the most part.

Hate, hate, hate the holidays. Can't wait until they are over. And my daughter's birthday is in the middle of it (Dec. 14). She is turning 11 this year.

Intermittent fasting. Pushed thru 11:30 am which is when hunger strikes me. Then it's much easier. It's 12:30 now. I only want to eat salad stuff today. No simple sugar/carbohydrates today. NONE. I'm talking about bread, etc. No bread today. Yesterday I ate 3 pieces of white bread & 1 tortilla! OMG

I may get invited to a relatives for Thanksgiving. Don't know if I will accept yet or not. I bought a small turkey breast and froze it. I like turkey better than chicken which I got sick of eating this week. Good thing for dogs. lol..they like everything.

Doing pretty good. Ate and exercised today. I still have bad moments, did last night but I was able to cope with the feelings by distracting myself and watching a favorite movie of mine I hadn't seen in years, which made me laugh

Ran again too much. The neighborhood must think I am a marathon runner or something as much as I run (though my mph speed is not very impressive).
Had breakfast, watched a show. Got a horrible panic attack and high anxiety. Took low dose Seroquel. I am prescribed 25 to 50 mg prn for this, haven’t needed it in awhile, did today. Conked out over 2 hours. I think I missed eating lunch? It was time to get my daughter from school when I woke up. Dinner soon. Leftovers at least so no cooking. Drinking coffee trying to wake up. Low dose Seroquel almost never affects me like this any more (making me so sleepy). But I woke up at 1 AM this morning, couldn’t sleep, slept a little, up at 3 AM. Maybe just tired. __________________ Bipolar 1, PTSD, anorexia, panic disorder, ADHD Seroquel, Cymbalta, propanolol, buspirone, Trazodone, gabapentin, lamotrigine, hydroxyzine, There's a crack in everything.

Suzy gets lots of food from me. I had to cut down on her food because she gained a lot of weight. Last Vet visit she lost 2 pounds! Good! Better for her. I skip her food now when I give her my food. That's for sure about visiting NICE people; not those who ignore you or more! I may cancel Thanksgiving and make my own food. I am a good cook and enjoy my food better any way...
