I've reached a plateau with weight, which is on my mind more than is healthy. It's getting easier to restrict. That probably isn't a good tactic for getting over Bulimia. Somehow I've lost track of all the trigger clues and healthy overcoming, and become weight focused. It's strange how this ED is manifesting itself into something new.

I restricted today but had a carnation instant breakfast so I guess that's something.

I've been hungry today but still hanging on. I wanted pizza but I didn't want to go to the store for a Quest pizza and all I have in the freezer are unhealthy ones. So I just skipped it. Maybe I'll go out in the morning.

I don't know if I restricted or not. I ate my daily amount but I had more soda and coffee then food. So I guess the quality was not good but the quantity was on track. I did get my Quest pizza. I ate half of it and gave the other half to my mom. I'm thinking of eating out tomorow for lunch. It all depends on how I feel in the morning though. At night I get hungry and I google places I want to eat at and then when I wake up at 1AM my stomach hurts and I'm anxious and all I want is a Coke. So we'll see how I feel in the morning.

I haven’t binged/purged or restricted in exactly 2 months. Very proud of myself. I’ve been eating very balanced.

So I am off one of my things that can and does often increase my hunger. And one of my meds that decreases my hunger my pdoc increased last Thursday. So right now I'm really struggling with eating and its not on purpose. I'm trying not to have it turn into a full blown issue but I have a really hard time eating when I'm not hungry no matter what I'm feeling emotionally.

I only made it to my goal because I had to. Not that I was really restricting it was just the same anxiety that turned into nausea again. Kinda hard to tell which is causing what.

I was accidently low today. I didn't feel like making up for it though since one of the things I watch would be high with pretty much anything I ate except meat which I don't have.

Today’s the first day this week I’ve really eaten much; not because I’m purposely restricting, but because I’ve had a nasty case of the flu (not COVID, fortunately) and for the past week the very thought of eating or drinking anything other than watermelon and water has made me retch. Today I had pasta and salmon for both lunch and dinner with cherry tomatoes. Now I’m having some popcorn as a snack.

I used to eat for comfort a lot and gained quite a bit of weight. Overeaters Anonymous Zoom meetings are helping me a lot. I went to a good one today.

I have had takeout 2 nights in a row so not too healthy.

tonight I'm having a roast dinner, and so far today, I've steered clear of the snacks. probably a bad move, because my roast dinners taste like carpet.

I've been stress-eating. I just bought some soup. I figure if I drink soup instead, it will fill my belly and help me feel good.

I think I may have figured out the cause of my severe nausea. Now I'm just eating normally and not restricting.

I took an extra dose of my Geodon on Thursday night and I was hungry yesterday. But I still managed to control myself. I did eat a couple extra things but I didn't go overboard. I just ate one cookie butter cookie and then a matzo cracker. So to a normal person it wouldn't be considered going overboard, but to me it was. Although for the entire day I still ate about what a normal adult would eat if not less. It would for sure not be considerered a cheat day by any means.

I've done well today. When I was hungry, I had oatmeal.

I didn't do the best today. I had a couple sodas and one coffee and not enough food. What I did eat was decently healthy though. But I was too lazy to make a Quest pizza for dinner and I also didn't feel like dealing with possibly burning the roof of my mouth. So whenever I feel like it and get the energy I'll go get my second pack of Budig meat of the day. So I'm not sure If I full blown restricted or was just super lazy again.

I had a nightmare where I went to a Golden Corral. I'm not joking, I woke up and was super relieved it was just a dream. That place is gross for so many reasons.

Today I seem to be restricting because of anxiety. Yesterday was mostly because I was cold and lazy.

My stomach feels super full but I haven't eaten much today. Dinner will be healthy though and I'll force myself to eat that because this is not good and I hope my therapist doesn't freak out in the morning. Considering theres some medical stuff involved I don't think I'll be in too much trouble. But I'll be in jeans and a T shirt instead of a hoodie and cargo shorts like last week so she may make a couple comments.

My session on Wednesday was actually virtual so she couldnt see me. But we talked about healthy eating and she asked what I weighed now and didn't make a fuss about it. She basically just said I'm doing good with the protein but now I need to eat more carbs. Everyone seems to be giving me a pass about food because of the other stuff going on. I know yesterday I was way too tired and off physically to eat much of anything.
