Guest guest Posted April 29, 2011 Report Share Posted April 29, 2011 I started IE about 2 months ago. At first, it was a green light to eat pizza, pasta, soda, cakes...you get the picture! My therapist basically advised me to have no off limits food. I got scared, but eventually the cravings did even out (to my utter shock) for the most part and now I find myself craving a variety of things (veggies, fruits, cheese, and yes, cookies) depending on my mood. I've had the diet mentality for so long that I'm a little confused now. I want to choose healthy foods, but I don't want to restrict or feel deprived. I hope this makes sense, but at what point is it okay (if ever) to say yes, pizza would be awesome right now but I should eat something healthier? And by " should " I mean, eating something that will make me feel better mentally and physically. I still have guilt attached to some foods, but I also feel physically worse when I eat processed or sugary foods. I'm probably being impatient but are these things that eventually just come with time? Thank you to anyone who has experience and hope to share!
