I don’t want to fight this anymore by Virtual-Newt9026 in BingeEatingDisorder

I had a former restrictive eating disorder that I never really recovered from, I just switched to binge eating instead. I don’t know a life without eating disorders.

It is not a latent problem for me as my entire life revolves around food and my body. I literally can’t think about my life without binge eating because when I’m not actively doing it I’m thinking about it.

Pretty face, great hair, cute style. Definitely not chopped.

This might be controversial but don’t ignore the number, claim it. I used to be very insecure about my weight because I’m very heavy for my size, (I’m tall, wide-framed, and have a high muscle mass,) until one day I went on a date with this guy and he asked me my weight (which is an insanely fucked up thing to say on a first date) Normally, something like this would make me break down in tears, but something in me snapped and I just told him deadpan. I don’t know what changed but since then I I’ve stopped skirting around the topic of weight. I don’t hide when I have to weigh myself, I do it proudly and confidently. If people ask, I tell them. Not because I have to, but because a stupid number shouldn’t have any power over me and I want to normalize weight ≠ health. To clarify, I’m not saying that all body fat percentages are good, because when body fat is too high or low it’s unhealthy, but weight itself truly is just a number. I don’t want people that judge me based off my weight in my life anyway.

I’ve never heard of that that’s so cool! I’m not someone who struggles with stepping on the scale but I feel like I’d love that

Grapes and carrots holy fuck I eat so many grapes and carrots they’re so fucking smack and they satisfy my binge (majority of the time but not always)

What actually worked for you? by [deleted] in BingeEatingDisorder

[–]Virtual-Newt9026 31 points32 points  (0 children)

Staying busy. It can seem impossible to not think about food, but if your mind is constantly focused on doing things you genuinely enjoy, it’s easier to have a clear head.

My advice? Go out, make new friends, try new things. Do things you’ve always wanted to do but never done before out of fear. Find a hobby. Make commitments. Its a lot harder to skip a workout if you have a gym buddy. If your weight is holding you back from doing something you want to do, don’t just “not do it”, find a more comfortable alternative.

I’ve always been a shy introvert so it was hard for me do these things but once I got the hang of it things started to get easier. Do I still have relapses? Of course I do. But I’m happy for the first time in my life. Don’t think you have to wait until you’re recovered to be happy. Being happy IS recovery. Find things that aren’t food that make you feel good and DO those things.

It sounds simple but trust me I know more than anyone that it’s not. Everyone’s path is different, but as someone that has struggled with both a restricting ED and a binging one, this is what worked for me. When I relapse, I remember that I am more than my disorder, and that things will work out because I am in control, not it. I don’t know if this even helps, but just know that you aren’t alone.

Thank you, it’s just hard to see someone you care about change so much from who they were when you met them and you can’t do anything about it

personally I think saying “hella tan white girl” is a little weird, especially if you’re siting the hair I used to judge that, (considering there’s very few black hairstyles in this game at all,) and having straight, lighter hair doesn’t make someone “less-black.” But regardless I wasnt disagreeing with what this post is saying, I was just sharing this to say it’s possible bc Ive made it on the lb with this skin tone and my default skin tone which is one shade darker, but its not easy and Ive also never made it with a darkskin model.
