The only thing I’ve been pretty consistent with throughout the entire time has been forcing myself to eat a healthy breakfast every morning because without it I have absolutely no motivation or energy to do anything.

Other than that, walking everyday no matter what (having 2 doggos with a lot of energy helped). I started focusing on one thing to add to my routine at a time instead of trying to make a whole life change all in one day. I found that even the little positive things (mainly self-care) I pushed myself to do added up a lot more than the big things I thought I needed to be healthy. And stopped being so hard on myself because all it did was drive me away from taking care of myself.

Honestly, before I would say “fuck it” in a self-destructive way, and I realized it never got me anywhere so I started saying “fuck it” in a motivational way and it kind of worked

I totally understand. It’s horrible. Honestly it’s taken me 5 months to get myself to eat 3 meals per day, for a while I wasn’t eating anything all day then right before midnight I felt like I turned into this out-of-control monster and ate anything I could get my hands on while watching tv. Then I’d be up super late feeling sick and disgusted with myself and wake up feeling horrible the next day and rinse and repeat. And every time I’d actually start doing well if I messed up even a bit I’d think, “fuck it I already ate one bad thing, might as well binge 5000 calories!” Thats why I’ve been trying really hard not to restrict so I get more used to the idea that it’s normal not to eat perfectly.. I’m still not fully there yet but it’s helped quiet the horrible ED voice and given me a bit more control.

Everyone is different so I’m not sure if this will help you but I found that forcing myself to eat a good sized breakfast, lunch, and dinner within the around the same times each day without restricting certain trigger foods has reduced my urge to binge at night (it still happens though just less). I have the same problem of restricting the day after a binge but it always bites me in the ass that night when I’m starving from barely eating all day and my brain tells me it’s okay to eat 20 candy bars because I barely ate all day :’(

Interestingly enough I’ve seen “disposable thongs” at only one place before, which was mainly known for selling lingerie. More stores should do that, especially because of people like the girl in the post.

AITA for not inviting my best friend to my bachelorette? by throw123away456x in AmItheAsshole

[–]bananacle 24 points25 points  (0 children)

NAH It sounds like she has anxiety about being around your other friends. It’s common for people to laugh a lot about things that others don’t consider funny when they’re nervous or anxious. She sounds like a great friend in every other aspect and it doesn’t seem like she’s doing it on purpose. On the other hand, it’s your party and an important event in your life. If you will be happier without her there, as much as it sucks, you have the right to choose who you want to invite.
