i felt this. i was forced to recover and my weight was so unbearable, my low weight seemed so unachievable, my suicidal thoughts became frequent and harder to fight off each time they came. i tried to get back on track a several times, but got so discouraged because i felt like whether i was eating or not eating, it all just felt hopeless because it just wasnt fast enough and life was miserable being that weight. a week or so ago i made a promise to myself to get back on track and stay on track because i cant handle being so uncomfortable and i just have to start now or i will only gain more. basically i told myself "if im going to relapse now at least make it worth while". now i just take it one day at a time and one pound at a time, trying my best to not think about the future. sending love and warmth <3

darling im right there with you, and im sending all the love and good vibes your way. i got into a nasty binge cycle over covid, and absolutely ballooned in weight. it can be devastating to reach a new HW, especially when you're disordered and so hyperfocused on your body. whats been helping me these days is wearing baggier clothes and turning off the lights when i shower. kinda lame, but it ruins my day a little less to not be so confronted with my body all the time. i'm so happy youre still alive and fighting, and i hope that you can come to some kind of peace with your body, whether that be through losing or not. you're so valued and loved regardless of your shape, and i really hope you have a wonderful day today. take it easy on yourself alright? <3

there's definitely some novelty about being addicted to cigs because it means i have to step out multiple times a day to smoke (and subsequently walk!)
anyways. hi and happy monday everyone, i think im fucking dying. its 3:15 in the morning, i havent slept yet, and i worked the worst 8 hour shift of my life yesterday. i have a pretty physically demanding job at walmart that only pays 14 an hour but.. hey it something right? i was practically falling asleep dealing with customers, but it wasnt so bad after i had my lunch break. my head is absolutely raging and my stomach wont shut the hell up, so im probably gonna officially try and lay down for the night. i may attempt to make some overnight oats for tomorrow if i could be bothered to get up. but lets get real.. the likely scenario is that i dont
https://fitfoodiefin...overnight-oats/
heres 8 recipes for oats that i think ill be trying throughout the week, just for fun. i love love love oatmeal, and meal prep for small portions is perfect for making sure my calories are exact (srry im insane and obsessive and crazy). i think out of all the flavors listed, im gonna try the coffee one first! but i definitely will not hesitate to play around with what ive got in my fridge and pantry at the moment. i have a huge bag of chia seeds i need to use up, and i know that theyre super great for omega 3s.
speaking of chia seeds, i've been absorbing nutrition info like a sponge. as of recent ive been super obsessed with watching dietitians and ppl with broader nutritional opinions on youtube. current favs are abbey sharp, obese to beast (classic), and kiana docherty. i find the way that they talk about food is not only comforting, but educational as well. its definitely a bit of a tonal shift from my last ed fueled obsession being supersize vs superskinny or my 600lb life. dramatized reality television about food addiction just hasn't been hitting the same!
that's probably all you're gonna get out of me for now, as I'm currently in a bit of a dazed state from my total mental and physical exhaustion (and because i just chainsmoked like half a pack of american spirits). it was a good day! (not sure i can even count it as today, but oh well).
cheers, i'll probably be back later

before i went to bed last night, i had a built bar. they're currently my favorite protein snack & i felt like i deserved it with the sheer amount of walking i did the other day. the best flavor to me is the coconut almond one, its pretty much identical to an almond joy! the fruit ones are great chopped up over oatmeal as well. as for my least favorites.. salted caramel and cookies and cream don't taste the best for what their description are. ill still eat them though, i spent like 30 dollars on that damn variety box. ill probably try some flavors that aren't included in the variety boxes, but im hesitant to really invest in an 18 bar box of something im not sure ill really enjoy. oh well. the key is to probably seek our flavors that i already know i like, separate from the protein.
its 3:13 (pm this time!) and im currently pretty hungry. i want to make some hard boiled eggs for lunch.. maybe some tuna too. eggs are another staple safe food for me. i especially love egg salad! that sounds really great right about now lol. i'm gonna make the eggs and go from there, i think

anyways. UPDATES!! i have a new boyfriend and hes the fucking best thing ever. we've been best friends for eons and i cannot get enough of him hes so freaking cute. hes confessed feelings for me like.. um. maybe 3 times at this point but i rejected him every time. poor sap. this time though.. i had gotten out of a really abusive relationship n he happened to be supporting me through the whole thing. right place right time? perhaps. but gosh i could ramble about him forever n ever. hes everything ive seriously ever wanted in a relationship and i was a FUCKING DUNCE to not see the good thing i had right in front of me. i digress. i love my boyfriend so much. maybe ill let you all in on our devious sexual escapades later. hes so cute
another thing!! ive dropped about 30 pounds since i last checked in on here! and it like.. wasnt through being disordered. who can believe that shit? after my nasty disgusting break up with my ex, i started to prioritize cooking healthy n balanced meals for myself, n like.. that stopped my binging. it was serious magic. i also continued to walk every day .. go to the gym. stuff like that. im still like.. i think classified as overweight? BOOOOOO GET OFF THE STAAAAGE but its so much better than it was before. 172 vs 202 is incredible as fuck for me to accomplish though not restricting. however... plateaus and such... thats why im back here lol. shit! yall just CANNOT kill me
still addicted to nicotine, but ive taken up vaping instead of smoking cigs. mostly for the convenience. you dont have to step out to hit your vape which is wonderful. especially at work
anyways i think thats all the major happenings in my life recently. I MISSED YOU CUNTS i missed this community

don’t think i can forgive my mom for this one. long post + need advice
#1 
Posted 08 May 2022 - 05:46 PM
okay so i don’t know where the hell to put this but i need advice. my mom has been talking recently about speaking to a celebrity on fucking facebook messenger and i told her there’s no way that isn’t an absolute scam and she agreed to stop talking to him. when i was helping her with something on her phone the other day i saw this person in her recents so today when she handed me her phone to look at a menu of a restaurant she wanted to go to i checked her messages. my concern was that she was being scammed out of money. she has message convos with MULTIPLE fake accounts for this celebrity, most of which being fan accounts that she for some reason thinks are the real person, she’s the one who searched them out. i think she believes she’s going to find the real guy. so i looked at one of them that had “official” in the name and she’s claimed she’s 5’10 and 143lbs (she’s not), been a private investigator for 38 years (no) and she’s 47 years old (no and also how the fuck have you been a PI for 38 years then). the dude asks for pictures and my mom sends pictures of MY body in a dress. i was trying on dresses about a month ago and she was adamant about taking a picture of me in one. now i fucking know why. then she sends a picture of my face from when i was SIXTEEN (also her pfp is a picture of me from when i was 12) and that’s when she claims she’s 47. the dude doesn’t believe her and says you look like a teenager. then she sends a picture of *herself* saying “this is my daughter”.
i have such a fucked up relationship with my mom and she’s done so much to my dad and i that this doesn’t bother me nearly as much as it should. for the other accounts she was talking to when asked about her appearance she described me so i’m assuming she was ready to send more photos of me to more people. she’s complained before about “pedophiles” calling my mom pretty thinking the profile picture of me at age 12 is her. then fucking change it. don’t fucking use a photo of me from when i was 16 pretending to be me. i have zero clue what to do because she will only blame me for looking through her phone if i confront her. my dad has been so happy recently that i don’t want to tell him. over three years ago i caught her sending photos to another man and planning a meet up with him. she begged me not to tell my dad and i never did, but before that she said “who do you think i get it from” in reference to me at the age of 11 being groomed into sending photos of myself online. i was a child and i wasn’t fucking cheating on someone like what she was doing.
i don’t know if it’s the same man but i saw messages from an ex of hers and they were planning to meet up a year ago. they’ve still been talking since “as friends” but frequently talk about sexual things and how they wish they had continued dating all of those years ago. she said “when i got married i was wishing you would burst through the door and ride off with me on a white horse”. ok. so she’s talking to multiple men and one of which she sent photos of me to pretending it was her. i don’t know what to do, i’ve been looking for a therapist recently and i’m thinking i should just talk to a professional first because i don’t want to ruin my parent’s relationship more than it already is and uproot everything. i don’t think i can ever forgive her for this, her facebook account says our city and considering the amount of messages i’m assuming she’s told more information to these people. it’s so fucking unsafe and just plain messed up. if i confront her she’ll just be pissed with me and beg me not to tell my dad again. if i tell my dad instead it’ll just ruin everything. i’m just lost.
i’m sorry this is so long, i don’t really know why i’m posting here but i don’t have many people to talk to and the two i’ve told have no clue what i should do either.

I am so sorry this happened to you holy shit, it's absolutely not okay. I'm not going to tell you what to do, but the best option is to tell your father and be honest with him. Show him the messages, if he isn't half as crazy as your mother he'll understand. It's hard, since she's your own mother, but sometimes hard things need to be done for the better. Make sure to somehow delete all the pictures she has of you, who knows what more she has... what if you accidentally met up one of these guys on the street and they think that you're the girl they've been talking to! stay safe <3

i’m thinking that’s the best option too. he deserves to know and i don’t think much good would come from me confronting her. the only thing is that i’d then be the catalyst for whatever happens. i’m just trying to build up the courage now

update for anyone wondering: confronted my mom because i cracked, she denied then shifted blame on me for going through her phone. “it was only two pictures” “we didn’t actually meet up”. i told her i can’t continue keeping secrets for her so either she’d tell my dad or i would. later told my dad because i knew she never would. he barely cares, probably because he’s been dealing with her absolute fucking delusional bullshit for 30+ years. he mostly cared about her using my photos but even then all he said was “i don’t think she completely realizes what she’s doing”. she wrote me a letter saying she’s disowning me and how she can’t trust me now, showed it to my dad and he just hugged me and said to give him time to fix this. before i could finish writing this she came in to yell at me and continue saying how she can’t trust me and we’ll never be the same, i kept bringing up her using my photos and she said “i apologized and i think that should be enough”. i recorded the argument just to have i guess. over the past few months i’ve recorded or written down things shes said to me. my relationship has been horrible with her since i can remember and i think this was the last straw. i can’t even trust my own mother with photos of me how am i going to trust her with anything else. i need to get my shit together so i can move out in the near future. funny thing is i’m adopted and my mom somehow fooled them into thinking she was fit to be a mother. my dad deserves so much fucking better.

I feel extremely bad for your father, this whole relationship must be exhausting.
I wish you the best of luck. Be careful around her, if she's ok with disowning you that quick who knows what she might do.
As the saying goes "every child deserves a parent, but not every parent deserves to have a child", make sure to learn from her mistakes and never treat your own kids like that in the future (if you ever decide to have any of course) I've seen wayyy too many instances where generational trauma occurs and it's just so sad to see. Take care of yourself, you deserve so much fucking better than that.

Thank you, I really appreciate it. Luckily I don’t see myself having kids in the future (definitely not any of “my own”), but if I were to end up adopting/fostering one day I feel like I have a great list of examples of things not to do lmao. I don’t think I’d ever let my mom have much contact with them either. I’m just hoping I can find a good enough job to support myself in the near future so I can distance myself from her

my ed is hurting my partner a lot and I feel so guilty
#1 
Posted 18 May 2022 - 12:19 AM
my boyfriend has a hard time opening up but after being together for so long I know this is affecting him way more than he’s letting on based on his “jokes” and comments recently. I’m very open about my ed but I try not to overwhelm him with it, at this point he mentions it more than I do I think. I feel so fucking guilty, I want to just stop all of this for him but I can’t.
today I was talking to him about it, I said I was going to stop mentioning anything about my ed with him. he said that isn’t possible because it takes up so many of my thoughts and so much of my time, and it’d only lead to worse behaviors anyway. he told me I need to find help, we talk about that a lot but for the first time I told him I just don’t feel sick enough. he said “how is using laxatives to see a .3lb loss not sick enough”. that kind of hit me like a truck, some of this shit doesn’t seem that bad to me but he sees it far differently than I do, likely how most people would see it.
I think he’s starting to become distant again, he doesn’t know how to support me with my ed and I don’t know how he would either. him being distant is what kicked me into a short recovery awhile ago, I stopped purging cold turkey because I feared losing him and that’s led to a lot of horrible feelings of being a fake, not actually sick etc. I want to be better for him so fucking badly but I don’t know how, I don’t know how I stopped like last time. it was really hard but I managed, this time it seems impossible. I want to be thin, I want to be sick enough for help. he thinks I am but I don’t look it and I don’t feel it. I don’t want to hurt him but I don’t know how to stop.
is anyone else struggling with this? not wanting to hurt your partner/friends/family but you just can’t fucking stop yet. I feel horrible and selfish

Omfg I feel so bad for you love <3 I kind of did the opposite and after thinking(for way too long) about breaking up with my boyfriend of almost three years I finally did it last friday. One of the main reasons was my declining mental health and wanting to hurt myself in peace as horrible as it sounds. But now Ive just broken his heart into millions of pieces and feel so quilty, even though there were many other legit reasons to call it off. Havent seen him since last friday.

i've been considering the same thing. my ed is taking such a toll on my boyfriend, we've been together for 4 years but i worry him so much and feel like such a burden. it's getting to be too much for him.
#6 
Posted 18 May 2022 - 10:38 AM
Anyway the fact that your boyfriend cares shows how much he loves you. Eds really suck because our brains tell us that we arent sick enough even when we are close to dying. I doubt you will ever feel sick enough (and ready enough), so you have the choice of either dying from your ED at one point or giving recovery a try. Recovering is difficult but its much easier with someone by your side that loves you and cares about you.....please take this chance now while you still have him.

For me problem was he wasn't really taking it that seriously(though I never really talked about how bad it was getting). But tbh I've started to miss him a lot but idk what to do ::DD Im stuck

i dont know whats best for your situation but let me share my similar experience.
my bf just broke up with me 3 days ago, he said i became more distant. we havent seen each other for 3 months just because i refused him to see me like this and i asked if itll be alright if he waited until i would feel like myself again. hes a real sweetheart who was nothing but supportive all the way. i stopped sharing anything related to my ed with him since i thought thats whats best. "dumping" something about what im going through was just unfair since its more than what both of us could handle (we both have depression which makes him twice the best partner ive ever had bec he was still checking up on me) but i couldnt talk about anything positive since food/weight loss takes up so much of my brain that i end up drifting away from our relationship
sometimes no matter how hard we try, things just wont go the way we want it to be
edit: lmao why tf did i just cry. i havent been able to process our breakup, not until i read this thread- BEC I WAS TOO FIXATED ON LOSING MY BINGE WEIGHT. i feel sad for everyone on here. EDs cost way too much than just food. im losing more than my weight at this point.
anyone who started at 140

Posted 18 April 2022 - 09:59 AM
i was around 140 in feb-march. i would fast at least twice a week and on days where i ate i would only have one meal and keep it under 400 cals. of course this limit is different depending on your tdee. i would also walk every day, not 10k but 5-7k. i'm now at 125

142 lbs was my lowest and I've since gained all the weight back (165 lbs). Currently I'm trying again after many months of taking a break from the diet I was on as it was mentally draining me. you DEFINITELY can lose it again!
My currently weight is 165 lbs, and when I started the diet I was on many months ago, I was the same weight as I am now. The diet I was on was pretty simple and honestly I seemed to add a bit more calories the longer it went on, so I'm pretty sure that was my issue. Regardless, I started eating 2 handfuls of these nuts I got from Brasil (NOT BRASILIAN NUTS), and I'd drink nothing but water. I love juice so much, so getting away from sugar n stuff was difficult. I didn't eat anything BUT nuts for a few weeks, but then I suddenly started eating bananas. A banana or two a day I think. It was a nice diet at the time since I was in love with those damn nuts (shhh), but once my diet stopped so I could binge for a day, I could not, for the life of me, enjoy those nuts again, I still can't. Maybe MAYBE for a little salt fix, but nothing more than that.
My caloric intake per day was probably 800 for well over a month. I lost roughly 20 lbs during this time, hence being 142 lbs.
I honestly wish I kept going. I also didn't work out during this time. I stayed in bed, ate nuts and bananas, drank water, and slept a lot, and remembered to keep myself as happy as I could. That was probably the MOST important thing and was probably how I could handle the diet for so long.
tl;dr: yes, it is possible, and I'm starting today! Don't give up! It'll be okay.

Highest weight was around 153, currently around 130-135 fluctuating somewhat. I've regained and lost the same 10-15 pounds endlessly but but am now on my way to hopefully breaking out of the 130s for good.
Can't say I have any specific diet, literally my main goal is to be below 1400 and NOT BINGE. So some days it's low restriction, then high, then mid, maybe omad if I feel like it, etc. Just do what works for you that day. Focus on THAT DAY, not on everything in the future. The future will feel hopelessly far away, and if you look towards where you're going all the time you lose track of how you're actually putting steps to get there. Don't force what you can't do. Lots of people can't consistently low restrict without binging, some can handle fasting while others can't. If you keep binging it's time to do things less drastically. It might seem like it'll take to long, but if you don't focus on your goal and instead on the now, then it doesn't seem like it'll take forever, promise.

Bear in mind, people with eating disorders tend to be both competitive and intelligent. We are incredibly perfectionistic. We often excel in school, athletics, artistic pursuits. We also tend to quit without warning. Refuse to go to school, drop out, quit jobs, leave lovers, move, lose all our money. We get sick of being impressive. Rather, we tire of having to seem impressive. As a rule, most of us never really believed we were any good in the first place.

Started at 180 and am now around 140. I did that by low restricting, fasting, hitting 10k steps daily, and doing additional cardio. I was also miserable, and when I reached my LW (138), I lost my mind and ended up binging like crazy. I then gained 8 pounds back, which I am trying to shed more slowly so I can actually reach my goals without binging. I think slow and steady is the best route to prevent you from gaining it all back again.

hard to say bc i was purging for several weeks at a time and then stopping, it was a mess. when i wasnt b/p-ing i would routinely fast for 3-4 days a week and stay under 500 on days that i did eat. sometimes i was purging on days i was under 500. i also swam for 3 hours every day, took bike rides, ran, roller bladed, did hiit workout, and generally forced myself to exercise a lot on top of that. it was pretty intensewhat was ur intake like those 5 months

I hit 122.8 on December 24th 2020.
I got there with low restriction + frequent binges + depression.
I entered a binge cycle and gained back 10 lbs over 3 months.
If I could give my past self advice, it would be to high restrict (1200ish calories) and eat healthy foods. Slow and steady wins the race, its a marathon not a sprint.

I previously started at 143lbs and got to 118lbs in 7 months, 1200 calories/day and exercising 1 day a week in the gym.
I gained it back not through a binge, but through continually eating slightly more than needed for many, many months.
I started recently at 157lbs in January. I'm now 137.5lbs, all 1200 calories/day and exercise probably 2x week on average. (I also took a month off during this time - not bingeing but not counting. Gained back 2lbs.)
Don't get me wrong, I have restricted to < 500, restricted to 800, restricted to < 1000. No matter what, like clockwork, my body/mind gives up around the 2 month mark, with about 18lbs lost, and I binge like crazy to gain basically all of it back.
Sure, on 1200 I took twice as long to lose 20lbs, but I really barely even feel like I'm restricting. As long as it's not a day I have a social commitment/ restaurant meal, or I'm super stressed with a deadline, 1200 calories feels like a good amount. I've lost 20lbs, and I'm completely ready to keep going for another 5 months to lose the remaining 20lbs. I don't feel desperate for a break and for nutrition.
I didn't document my journey from 157lbs -> 140lbs, but I recently made an accountability to track my weightloss at 1200 calories and 140lbs. Feel free to check it out if you're at all tempted by higher restriction.

Cw: 118 April 23
My ‘routine’ if you want to call it that has been restricting to about 700 per day, and b/p on 5000+ like 5-8 times a week.
Wouldn’t recommend it at all. I’ve had to be signed off work because I’m in a horrible place and entirely non functioning even at a ‘healthy’ bmi.

I also quit my physically demanding job and can't exercise rn so it seems to be muscle mass I lost more than fat :/
I genuinely looked better at 141, in the end fat % and muscle % seem to make more difference than 16lbs

I lost 10lbs eating 1,400 calories. I took a very intense cardio dance class 3 times per week.
It is very possible to lose weight. If you can find a physical activity you enjoy, it would make the weight go faster
I’m hoping to get down to 120lbs soon, I’m tempted to lower my calories to 1,200 so I can ge there faster but afraid to end up binging

I’m 137.1lbs today, so 8.4lbs in 24 days!
Changes in eating and drinking -
I used to get a monster everyday before work. The 15 cal one. The soda didn’t fill me up and actually made me hungrier so I stopped buying it
Stopped drinking hot cocoa 1-4 times a day (around 150cal per cup) , replaced it with green tea (6 - 8 cups a day, the work toilet hates me)
Stopped eating a bowl of cheerios in the mornings - I pour them in a mug instead, and c/s on half of it, then eat the rest (around 20 grams + soy milk) and then maybe if I can’t help it I’d do that again. This is absolutely disgusting and I do not recommend this. I am terrified of clogging the toilet and getting fired, or the paper smelling in the toilet trash can.
Snack on cucumbers - cut three cucumbers and eat them throughout the day
Eat homemade tortilla pizzas instead of buying them frozen (100cal for the tortilla, >30 for the tomato paste, 120cal of 30-40g of cheese which is enough for 2 tortillas)
Soda stream instead of buying soda at the store - 13 cal per 100ml instead of 40+
I also make popsicles from the flavors, mix the tiny amount of syrup with water, so it’s around 2-4 cal for the popsicles. Sucking on them fills you up.
Changes in cardio -
I used to work 4km after work, 6km on days off.
Upped that to 5km min after work, and 8km on days off. I get at least 11000 steps in every day. I burn at least 350 cal every day w these walks. I did walk for 3 hrs once and burnt 1000 calories. It was insane and everything hurt for the rest of the day
Most days I eat around 600-800 calories. I have to say that there were some exceptions (sisters birthday, family dinner, going out w a friend) but I stopped eating alone. I don’t eat when people don’t see me. Unless I’ve literally not eaten all day and I start to feel physically ill, I stick to drinking green tea to fill up.

In 7/8 months I got down to 92lbs.
Back up to 115 now after an attempt at recovery but honestly even trying to maintain 115 is as hard as it was to lose down to 92. Except now I look 'fine'
