I'm gonna add the German version, lol: Frohe Weihnachten!
It must be twice as hard to have an ed living in a culture where food plays such an important role. I really feel for you but I hope you can do a little more than water and coffee. You are not alone. You might be in your family but you always have us.

Be happy, sweetie, and allow yourself to eat something, even if it's just some veggies and fruit or a bit of protein like meat, cheese, or nuts. I know from experience that eventually forced self starvation will end in an ugly, take-no-prisoners binge.

In a couple of hours I will be facing my third family holiday feast for this weekend, so I do understand your fears: cave in and be part of the group, or deny myself all the goodies I crave so I don't hate myself tonight?
We'll all make it through this day together, okay?

Aww thank u soo much Karrin. And Pandora ... yeah I'll glad u are my family as well...I hope u were about to make it today....I did exactly wat I was affraid I ate like a cow...I didn't have second but I had dessert *sighh* so timorous I'm starting over...this has to go on for trest of my life to maintain myself. Holidays are good buit dinners suck...holidays are my biggest trigger...how are u ladies?

How did it go? Eating is good for you and it's ok to eat on Christmas, even overeat a little. especially if you haven't been eating all day your body needs food.

I was a good girl and had a healthy breakfast. Did okay with the family dinner...no seconds. Then they brought out all the desserts...game over, man...game over! I had a small piece of everything which activated the monster inside me. When we finally came back home I proceeded to eat another helping of dessert and some chips/dip. I am telling myself to let it go for the day, most of these foods won't be in the house until next Christmas, and I have made a date with the treadmill on Monday. Now I just have to watch for those self-hate feelings that show up after a binge fest :/

Hope you are doing better now and have found that magic button in our heads that finally say "no more!"
Hugs ~*~

Yea I feel better now cuz I know tomoro. I will just start over ....Ive been getting so many comments about my weight and I like it but at the same time I feel embarrassed cuz idk wat they're talking about ...my family such teachers etc as always telling me that I'm getting so skinny but I'm like they'll hell there just messing with my mind. LOL...one of my best friends told me m losing too much and she doesn't like it cuz I look weird and am not " thick" anymore. I appreciate the comments but I feel like I'm not trying hard enough..u know?

If people in the family and at school are mentioning how thin you are getting (too skinny) I would not call it "messing with your head"...I think maybe they are becoming concerned with your health. Please be careful and slow down the weight loss so you do not become ill, okay?
Hey! We survived the holiday!!! :)
