Its gotten to the point now that i cant even eat a fat free, sugar free foods without worrying about the calories in it, i mean for god sake i restrict the amount of lettuce i can eat due to calories!!! it is rediculous, the only reason i let myself eat it is cause i know my metabolism will slow down even more if my stomach doesnt have anything to process. i chew and spit all the time and i feel so guilty about all the wasted money and time but it seems to be my only coping mechanism. Im susposed to be in recovery but fuck i feel like such a failure!!!
Help!!!

" Ok, well I dont' know why you are embarassed?! Honestly. Each of us can relate, so their should be no embarassment here. As far as the professionals, there should be no embarassment there either, like peanutzzz said, you aren't the first one. The advice you have been given especially by peanutzzz is so powerful in itself. Oh and don't let a guy add to the stress of the diesease, they aren't worth it. "
