@footballgaelic Hello Gaelic! Thanks so much for sharing your concerns with the community, and I appreciate your honesty and courage. It seems like you have fallen into a restriction-binge cycle, where you restrict during the day and end up bingeing at night because of your inadequate food intake during the day. I understand that it is a hard cycle to break, and you might be feeling anxious, lost, and hopeless while stuck in this cycle. However, if you have set your mind to overcome this challenge, I believe in your ability to break through it.

I encourage you to ask yourself: What would happen if you stop dieting during the day and start eating meals during regular meal times? What are some of the foods that you binge on and why? I hope this can help you better understand the motives behind your disordered eating behaviors so that you can seek the support that you are looking for. Take care and I wish you well ❤️

I feel you. I was in the same vicious circle for a long time. I couldn't look in the mirror and accept my body the way it was. I tried different methods to lose weight and all of them ended up as a breakdown. I was desperate and didn't know what to do until I found this article. It sounded crazy fasting for such a long time, but I decided to give it a shot. Of course, I managed only 4 days, but it changed my mind completely. I started to realize why I had those breakdowns and what to do to be slim and happy. I also lost some extra pounds during this fasting. Maybe you should try it too.

I understand your feelings about dieting very well, I want to say don't care too much about other people's opinions, you live for yourself.
