Guest guest Posted March 15, 2003 Report Share Posted March 15, 2003 Hi, Everyone. My name is , and this is my first post to this group. I'll be two years out in July, and I've lost 130lbs to date. I just want to say that I've appreciated the recent posts regarding food issues. I consider myself someone with binge-eating disorder, and I swear my eating has been way out of control since the holidays. I had gotten down to 187 or so, and I've been back up to as high as 195 within the last week. Today the scale says 190, and I hope it continues to move in the right direction. However, I know that the scale won't move (in either direction) unless I make it happen. And that's where I have a problem. Someone recently posted, " Nothing tastes as good as thin feels, " and I agree with that statement. I'm trying to remember that, but somehow I get so focused on EATING that I can't think of anything else. Then I beat myself up for caving so easily. I never allowed myself to become bulimic because I was afraid the gastric acid would rot my teeth. Now that I don't have much gastric acid, this wouldn't be a problem, and I actually tried to throw up a nasty piece of cake that I inhaled the other day. Turns out I can't make myself throw up on demand. So I guess I'm back to healthy ways of dealing with my problem. Your support means a lot to me in the process. Best wishes! -- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
