Okay, so I've had issues with anorexia and binge eating. Right now I'm suddenly not into food at all. Like, I don't even want to eat any at all. I'm going through a tough time in life right now and was wondering if anyone could help me figure out if I'm leaning toward anorexia again or am just having weird issues. I guess I want to lose weight too, but right now the only thing that is coming to mind is the fact that food is gross. Help!

((((HUGS)))) I hope you feel better soon. I have been hurting bad so I do not know how much I can help you, but I had to say something. My heart is with you on this I understand how you are feeling. I know this is difficult and I say this from a place where I am dealing with avoiding doing what I am going to tell you. I am going to get off line and try though soon. Here it is, take the time to find a safe place, where you can be alone and where you can deal with what emotion your are avoiding. Try to get the emotion out. I hope you are able to get some relief. Take care.

I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
