Its getting painful

@easyWater3648

hey there. congratulations on losing weight, but i'm sorry that you feel it's getting painful! as someone who doesn't deal with eating disorders, i'm sorry that i'm unable to help much, but here are some forums/links that you may find useful -- one, two, three, and four. i hope you have a wonderful day, and all the best!

@easyWater3648 - Hi there. I know it can be incredibly hard after getting to this point to even think about the idea of eating again, but I imagine that there are also reasons that you came here and reached out and that there's a part of you that's feeling like it's time to get help and to make a change and that this isn't working for you anymore. Have you talked to anyone about what's going on? You're always welcome to reach out to me if you think I could help. Take care

@easyWater3648 - It can be easy to get caught up being proud over a recent weight loss, that you don't realize how much you hurt yourself getting to that point. You said the thought of food disgusts you. After your unhealthy weight loss, over a month and a half, you must be feeling like food is the enemy; that if you did eat, you would gain weight.

I'd like to remind you that food is not the enemy. It is a source of energy for your body, a way to nourish it and take care of it. You've lost weight, and that was your goal before.

Coming back to healthy eating habits is a really difficult thing to do. You can get caught in a pattern of binge eating & restricting, or one or the other. A exercise you might like to try would be to have a small portion of a food you enjoyed before; you do not have to eat until you are full, but you cannot eat until you are sick. Going from one extreme to the other can only damage you.

I wish you the best of luck.
