Still doing good. A little obsessed about my weight again but not engaging in ED behaviors

[kumy]

That's grat Blue_Bird. I hope you keep like that!

things are good.

hopefully will stay that way for christmas

it helps that I've sort of got my christmas menu plans all ready in place.

so hopefully I can stick to them

I should start planning my foods again. Some days I'm eating a lot and some others I'm fasting. I've lost some pounds, which I shouldn't have.

I've been eating too much. Holidays leftovers aren't helping the cause.

Really need to get back to regular routine of walking. Feel like I’ve gained weight over the last week and dislike it. I’m at a healthy weight and 9-10 years ago was almost too thin. It’s something about not liking how my stomach feels or hips look, it’s almost BDD. So I’m at a healthy weight, eating well and just need to get back to regular walking 30-60 minutes daily and it will be much better.

I feel like I am in an AA meeting for the first time, admitting that I have an eating disorder.

It's been alive on and off for years. It was active for 7 years when I was a teen and young adult. Then it suddenly stopped on its own and I was fine for many years. Then it resurfaced in my adulthood years and it's been active for about 8 years now.

I am now working on my recovery, on my own. It's my little secret though. NO ONE IRL knows, and I want to keep it that way. I am far too ashamed. It healed once, so I have faith it will heal again.

My daily check in right now is that I am working on emotional regulation and awareness each and every day so that I don't slip back into the habit of emotional eating. I am working on adopting healthier coping mechanisms.

I feel Ok today. Of course, it's only 7:15 Am and who knows what the day ahead holds. I am trying though.

I was always preoccupied with my weight. Probably had PICA when I was 7 and 8. Gained a bunch from psych meds from 2006-2011. Lost a lot of weight from late 2015-2019. Gained a few back this winter. I’ve never been diagnosed with anything although I was just called an attention seeker back when I was a teenager from everyone from my mental health counselors to my parents. They said that I didn’t have any eating issues at all. Now as an adult there’s for sure some disordered thoughts when it comes to food. Although I’m not sure how much is my gender identity issues. My therapist is always asking about my eating habits and has thrown around the words eating disorder a handful of times.

Today was not a lot of eating but a whole lot of exercising which is new to me.

Having been anorexic and having body image issues, this new reality of not having a gym is definitely playing on my self image. I'm doing what I can to keep fit, but I can tell I'm edgy and starting to think about weight more often.

Was very happy our grocery stores somehow got in some raw vegetables. I was eating cold sauerkraut & pickles for my raw veggie fix. For awhile, there was no vegetables at all, in the stores here.

it has been a bad day re: junkfood. I should be ashamed

I did eat my dinner though (most of it), so I guess it isn't all bad

I think (at least in the case of today) I have nothing to do so I'll eat.

is anyone else finding that they are eating more unhealthily during lockdown

I feel I am

[shovelhead]

I feel sick from pounding burnt, black coffee. Pots of it. I ate food but I still feel like crap. Water, water instead..

For sure! I've been eating sugar cereal & other garbage crap, cuz I can't even get to grocery store for my clean food items! Sugar cereal is one of the absolute worst...

I was good for one full week, then I fell down again.

I should eat well this evening.

I have barely snacked all day (in fact I only had a few biscuits earlier), but I am hungry for my ddinner. I'm having pizza, so hoping for an empty plate.. and not a revert back to junkfood when I'm " bored" of the food (which I find a lot)

[childofchaos831]

We're not eating well at all... Restricting. We do at least eat once a day. We make ourselves eat once. When we were in the psych hospital, they kept getting onto us because our sugar was too low. (We're diabetic.) The lockdown isn't helping at all...

I am sorry that you arn't eating well

in terms of food groups, neither am I.

in terms of my menu, out of 7 days, 5 of them the main meal is something chicken related

I find being a fussy eater such a chore

not much I am willing to eat

I ate well yesterday (barely snacked all day)

hopefully I can make it 2 days in a row..

I feel like no matter what or how hard I try, I always end up in the same place...

I had a pannic attack today over food.

concerning lunch (which I don't, and will never eat).
someone offered me a toastie, and though I apreciate the thought it did trigger me. I can't eat at that time of day. just can't do it.

ate 3 bags of potato chips in the afternoon and only ate a little of my dinner because of it..

my dinner was so dry today
again, only ate some of it..
