Thank u Voodoocita for your advice,

yes it is hard to find your own way in life and it needs time energy and istead we spend it on some food thinking: eat or not to eat.
this is a shame.

i am doing better now. I binge when i achieve my best weight, i say to myself: i am already hier why dont i let myself go today. the other reason is pms. alltogether is binging at least once a week. and the result a constant food watching. But this is better than bulimia i suffered from.

So i have more time to arrange my life, but the worst thing is that i have not much drive to do so. i am motivated but have a lack of discipline, i think i have spent too much energy on strugle with anorexia/bulimia and now have less energy to go for my dreams.

Re: Food Thinking

I am no more thinking of food, I am back to anorexia,
Is it my choice or a destiny I dont know, but with anorexia I feel safe, it is better to me than binge/diet, binge/laxative /purge.

I have time work and devote myself to the things I am interested in . my mind is no more food dominate

It is abnormal, but I can not do anything with myself

Now I think i was not so much food thinking as my aboby shape watching. I got to the point I say it is enough. I am not a doll, I am a person and there are so many interesting things in life u can do, so many hungry and and unhappy.....and I have spent so much time on weight watching and ED.

Now I let myself be as it was meant to be, if I am anorexic, (I became anorexic with 16 and even earlier), so what can I do??? this no good for me but at least I shall devote myself to the things I have always wanted to. I wonna make a difference in life , thinking of your body solely u never reach the horison, i believe so

I have had a very interesting experience for a few days. I was a guest to my friends home, so we had all three meals together at one and the same time for a few days. I have noticed, that more I followed this plan the less I had any feeling of ED. now, looking back to the experience I realize:

WHEN U KNOW U SHALL EAT 3 TIMES A DAY AT DISTINGUISHED TIME, U DONT BOTHER TO HAVE ANY THOUGHTS ABOUT EATING. Idea

EAT DISCIPLINED, DONT MISS MEALTIMES Idea
