I had a full day of a successful fast that I'
m going to try to keep going tomorrow as well
. Food just doesn'
t look the same today
. It makes me sick to even think of putting anything in my mouth that'
s not a drink
. I've fed off chai
tea and water all day
.
I wish everyday was like this
. An empty day
. A clean day
. Hopefully it will help me get close to my goal. I don't plan on weighing in until the 1st
. It'
s been hard.but its going to feel so good to look at that scale and see thin
.
I really don'
t have much to say lately
... Other than my calorie counts
. Which I know get so insanely boring
.
I also know many of my followers follow a specific blog who'
s recent post stated that the difference between wanarexic and anorexic is being severely underweight
. While I believe that'
s true, I believe it to a point
. I may not be severely underweight right now, but at 6 years of 98 lbs and less I
was medically defined as anorexic
. I'v
e always had the same mind set
. But tried being "healthy" per my husbands request when we got married
. I don't believe it changes .I'm doing what is called "relapsing" like many do with drugs, alchohol, addictions. That doesn't mean I'
m not anorexic
. I guess my point was I was a little offended by
their post
. Some people
relapse on eating disorders because we feel dirty and unclean without them
. Or empty
. And somehow in out twisted minds an empty stomach fills the empty head
. Bulimia is not an official diagnos
is for me
. It won'
t ever be, as I refuse to speak to medical proffession about my EDs again
. But with my ana I was sent through years of therapy and "family support" ( they honestly triggerred more than they helped)
I gained some weight, which is expected when your pursuing recovery
. By my stats I am defined as a "healthy weight"
Or the required weigh
t. But I will not be there for long
. In a month or two I will be back
in my size 0
. And in 3-4 I will be in my 00 jeans
. The way I'
m supposed to be
. The way I was until recently
. But being ana for that long.when you seek recovery your metabolism doesn'
t know what to do with the sudden food intake and cannot digest it the normal way, hence the weight gain
. If I was any normal person eating at max 900 calories a day would have gained maybe 10 lbs
. But because my body doesn'
t know how to take food in standard portions it gets confused and makes weight gain a more possible and plausible option
.
Now I understa
nd where she is coming from I just feel the need to voice my opinion on my eating disorder as everyone is different
. I agree at 1
35+
you are surely not anorexic, just adopting the behaviors of ana as a "diet" (which at that point will catagorize you as a wannarexic)
If you'v
e never been underweight for your stats then you use restriction as a dietary behavior, its not a mental restriction
.
But relapse doesn'
t reclassify you as ednos or wanarexic
. It'
s simply relapsing
.
I'
m done
. I'll start babbling myself into a hot mess and offendin
g
peop
le an
d her blog is the last thing id ever want to offend.
Until tomorrow
