seriously.. i do. T says if i say i have no power over this, then i don't have power over it... but i am stressing over this every day now. i have had only one day out of almost two weeks where i didn't throw up. i eat some snacks during the day and do ok, then i try to eat a meal.. that's when trouble strikes. i've attempted to stay with just snacks, and some days that works, some days i just get really hungry.

i have decided that eating less is a lot better than the alternative for now... i need to not be putting my body through that every day. And i need to stop thinking about how i have failed every day.

i don't know how to set a goal around this... one that is attainable. i mean, throwing up is a black and white thing, you do or you don't. i'm not winning.

I just want to give you a million of these i give up i give up i give up

I so, so, so know how you're feeling. It's so frustrating, and discouraging, and....well just BAD.

What helped me recently was completely changing how I eat. I've only eaten veggies, fruit, and beans since about mid-June. No grains, no sugar, no trigger foods (although almost anything can be a trigger food). It's so frustrating to not know how to eat. Ugh.

I've relapsed a couple of times, but for the most part, it's been better than usual. And I don't feel like I'm going to die, which is how I felt when I was restricting and/or binging and purging.

It's hard not to turn this way of eating into restricting. And it was REALLY REALLY hard to let myself feel full after having a bunch of veggies or a salad or whatever. But for the most part, it's better than it was before I changed how I was eating.

i eat a small meal and just keep hoping i can get through. i have made it through two days now... i ate one of those pre-packaged meals bc it was portioned and was an actual meal at least. So hard to keep it down... but i did. Now i worry excessively about re-gaining the weight i lost.. bc i really do need to lose more. i'm not back to my healthy weight yet even. i have just been losing far too rapidly and in terrible ways. Its suhc a tough choice.. i dont know when i am doing the right thing

attentionThis is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.
