Wishesupon » eggshell good for tea, tea is very healthy, heartwarming, see it as a comfy couch you can lean on, make other things more dependable then bingeing. go hug your teddybear, disconnect the happiness you find in food into something else which wouldn't harm you ( i soud so wise, don't i) .. keep up. 12 min ago |

eggshell » Wishesupon yes; I want to so much but I've managed to stop so far. I keep going into the kitchen (I live with my boyfriend and his parents) and my boyfriends dad is there. i think if he wasn't in the kitchen i would have started a binge; but I didnt want to eat in front of him so I just made myself a cup of tea instead. i don't want to end my day kneeled in front of the toilet. I hate it so much! you're right; we are better than this. we're going to keep fighting!! xxx 26 min ago |

What I learned during recovery
PLAN, PLAN, PLAN IN ADVANCE. Plan what you are going to eat during your day. What are you going to do if you are in a situation that triggers b/p. Thinking all the time about recovery is part of the eating disorder. I need to focus on the real life instead. Don’t trust yourself. If I know I always binge during an X situation (like being alone at home around 5pm), I need to go out at that time or find another activity. I am not strong enough to just be at home by myself and act normally. If I eat those cookies because I am feeling lonely they won’t make my friends appear. Trust yourself, and your body. Tell yourself you are able to do it. Tell yourself that you are not going to gain one pound because you ate a piece of cheesecake. God is an important part of my recovery If I eat tons of food, all the time, I will gain weight. I can’t have cheesecake and hamburger and fries everyday, in every meal, but I can have them once in a while. I purge not only because of my emotions, but it is an easy way to control my weight. I love food.

At X-mas time my sister drank my chocolate soymilk and I screamed at her about it. I apologized but she still has barely talked to me since then. It makes me sad to think how selfish ED makes me :(....
I obsess over what other people eat to. A few days ago i snapped at my mom when she didn't finish her sandwhich. we were out to eat lunch. I told her she HAD to finish eating it because she was restricting herself. But the stupid thing--she was not restricting, she just was not hungry!.... ahh i frustrate myself sometimes!

This happened to me today!
I ordered chinese food from across the street to binge on and my mom asked me how long ago I ordered it. She asked me if I would be able to eat it WITHOUT binging and purging and I cried and begged her NOT to throw out my food or take it away and I told her I don't know but I'm going to try not to binge purge on it.
The second episode was when my moms friend came over here and started eating my potato chips and I pulled my mom into the room and yelled at my mom for letting her friend eat my chips! I was SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO mad I was cursing!
So don't feel bad hunnie bunches =]..You're not alone.
It sucks though =[.
Stay strong! Love lovesssss xoxoxox
i used to get sooo mad!!! damn! i dont know if its because i dont like my brother in law or because of bulimia but everytime i found out he ate my food id go crazy!! now days i try to let it go, i also found out no one in the house likes fish so i buy fish, they dont like high fiber cereal so i get that too lol i buy healthy snacks they dont like :D
so dont worry just let it go, its better than bingeing dont u think?
take care

taking away an addicts' drugs, hehe. Same kind of concept eh? But... it doesn't justify our actions though. Yes we struggle, but that doesn't mean that others should pussyfoot around us because of it. It may sound harsh, but once I got my head around that I had a big change in attitude and heart and began to really take an honest approach to my recovery. You'll learn to respect yourself much more and become a stronger person as a result :)
The biggest thing, is to remember to disassociate yourself with the behavior and to not beat yourself up for getting angry with people. When you step out of the E.D. and think about it objectively, you probably see is as acting ridiculous right? That whole thing that happens right there and then, is the REAL you! You know that deep down, you're a better person than how you just treated someone in regards to taking your food. Recovery is all about recognizing and working out those kinks.
Yes, yesterday my bf just joked about stealing my plate of food I had just made, we were in a totally foolish mood so if I was normal it would have been ok, and it was only a joke, but I got really annoyed, and more inside, then I let show.. My god food makes us go nuts!
