Well, maybe you should stop thinking about weight loss, working out, dieting for the moment to relieve that stress. It certainly is not making you feel better so maybe you need to step away from it. Just keep your fat intake, with carbohydrates sugars and calories low while you re access your goals. This way you won't gain weight while you're doing this. Clear your mind hun and know that it's gonna take some time.

I wish I could stay online longer but I have to go see Shannon. Call me if you want to or can!

Luv ya girlie! Please take care!!!

ok here's my preliminary decision

meds are not right for me right now, chances are this is NOT caused by a chemical imbalance but instead bc of my f*cked up thinking patterns, therefore I will go to therapy and learn new ones hehe

meds are scary and may not be necessary right now even tho they would provide a "quick fix" *sigh* this is tough

anyway even tho my friend didnt say it in the best possible way shes right im making myself sick and i need to stop feeling sorry for myself no big deal right ugh, life

i just binged again

 

[Jenny]

GBC, I really think therapy would help you I habe been in therapy to change my thinking patterns and it truley changed my life I got past my eating disorders on my own with just pure willpower, but a year after that I found myself still feeling like shit even though I wasn't "active" in my disorders anymore. I went to therapy for almost a year and checked back with my therapist every now and then up until recently..
I think this is the answer for you honey. Change really does happen from the inside and you'll have a hard time being happy if you don't learn HOW to be..

I'm here if you want to talk honey

 

[greekblondechic]

ty Jenny

after more thought, it actually kind of pisses me off the way they make you believe you are so sick and need medication yadda yadda!

im enough of a zombie w/o meds i will be fine, i just need to lighten up on my worrying and self criticisms. hopefully therapy can help me do that a lot better than i can on my own

 

[Stacey]

hey greeky~ I'm sooo sorry your going through all this. I wonder if the doctor is right?? Have you thought about going for a second opinion?? Seems like I have a lot of your symptoms these days!

Take care of your self- You are a beautiful girl - and I hate to see you so sad!

 

[Jill]

There are very good books on binging-I have one on hold at the library. Check em out!

 

[JLB001]

seems like most medical dr's just want to push the pills and not get to the real thing that is causing the problems.

 

[greekblondechic]

Yeah, i should definately look into the self-help books on stress, self esteem and eating disorders, thanks jill

if anybody has specific book recommendations thats great
websites too

 

[greekblondechic]

I agree JLB it pisses me off

you should see the way they pushed birth control for me for acne

 

[Jill]

Dr Phills book-the first few chapters are about emotional eating, etc. The chapters about working out and diet I dont find helpful in my case-I think I have that under control. I THINK!

 

[greekblondechic]

I think you do sweetie, you are a dedicated dieter

 

[Jill]

A lifetime dieter.....It sucks. Steve said I looked skinny today, and my ass looked small! I hope its not the 2 carb days in a row playing tricks on his eyes!

 

[greekblondechic]

wooohooo!!!!!!!! dont doubt just gloat!!!!!!! im so happy for u! yea!

 

[JLB001]

[greekblondechic]

I keep binging, today it was on crackers

*Sigh* I think if I finally get myself some ice cream, that will be the end

 

[hardasnails1973]
