Sometimes I skip a meal and feel powerful and in control for doing so.
Then I go a whole day and think to myself, \"now I\'m really getting somewhere\".

I tell myself that I\'m not hungry, that\'s just the fat going away.
Then I eat someting, and I hate myself. I tell myself I was doing so good and could have held out longer.
