I am anorexia, but have been through IP twice and have the strict meal plan ingrained in my head so i eat well twice a day, usually skipping lunch, and having a night snack. I have had a little extra for time to time and nothing bad, still very scared of fat grams and carbs, but i am gaining and i can't stand it, yet i never keep the promises ed and I make to restrict the next day. I just cant help sticking to this routine of eating well and gaining and i hate myself for it everyday and can't stand looking at myself... I knnow i am doing what i am suppose too, but i feel like it's ed too that is doing this to me, making me eat because he is saying you are a failure so you may as well stuff it....
anyone else been in this place? I feel like I am about to either become bulimic or start starving again... help!!

I am right there with you. It's something you just have to keep choosing each time the hour passes by. Soon those hours will turn into days and days will turn into months, and you will fall sometimes but you'll somehow find the strength to stick by your recovery year after year. You'll see. Just keep choosing recovery. You will get through this.

I think that you are working hard at sticking to your meal plan but now you have started to let anorexia back in by skipping the odd meal, so when you go more than 4 hours without sustainance here we go bad thoughts again, you cannot be gaining with this routine, so I know its hard but get back onto the 3 meals 3 snacks a day please and you will notice a difference, the thoughts will be less and less xxxx

Exactly like that. Being bulimic again or starting restricting seem like they're you're only choices but there's a better way. The comment above me said it all. Just have faith. You'll know it's faith when it's all you can hold on to. XOXO

A friend sent this to me..As far as I can see, grief will never truly end.It may become softer overtime, more gentleand some days will feel sharp.But grief will last as long as Love does - ForeverIt's simply the way the absence of your loved onemanifests in your heart. A deep longing accompaniedby the deepest Love some days. The heavy fog mayreturn and the next day, it may recede.Once again, it's...

I have my maxed amount of epidural shots of my cervical DDD....(and no one cares about my lumbar DDD)..... I've done physical therapy, muscle relaxers, Amitriptyline, Nortryptiline, desipramine.....narcotics... So I decided to go to a spine specialist and they have me on Gabapentin. Its been two weeks and it did nothing for my lumbar ever... but it did seem to help my cervical and arm/hand pain...
