Cant Face Eating

[Guest Angel21]

Things have gotten really bad at the moment am eating about 300 calories a day.

I cant face anything that is high in calories

My dr of course is unaware of this

But i have an appointment with her on the second of December , but its to talk about other things

I don't have or likely to be getting a therapist

I know that healthy eating and exercise is the way you are meant to lose weight but it isn't working

I know my husband is worried about me and tries to get me to eat something but i just cant eat anything over 300 calories

If i did i would probably purge it

[Guest Angel21]

Who cares?

Not me.

At the point were i dont care how less i eat managed about 360 calories yesterday but feel like a fat pig for eating that much.

should have purged it.

I had a drs appointment today but canceled due to the weather here

Made another appointment in about 4 weeks to get medication.

Am not sure weather to say anything to her about this because i dont think i want the help or take in what she will say to me.

Too fat to eat , too fat to live

I care, but depression's kicking my butt too...and I'm feeling fat, too...Hi, kettle, it's the pot...

Carbs make serotonin...no food, no happy.

Sorry you are feeling depressed too

Angel,

I know that you are depressed and feeling fat which makes you more depressed, I have lived there for too many years, I took comfort in eating which sustained my rather massive weight for a long time - you are starving yourself but the end result remains the same - you don't lose weight.

Your body has gone into a self preservation mode and is burning as few calories as possible to keep you going while it waits for more fuel.

I have carved my weight down from over 360 pounds to just a fraction above 300 - and the last 30 pounds have been since moving to New Orleans, a city famous for foods and excesses - how did I do that?

I am eating less than before - you need to eat more, much more and increasing my activity levels - I climb stairs all of the time - both activity and the right foods can also help stave off depression.

Do not think of eating as making you fat, think of it as making you well.

Love ya,

Sally

I cant any more than what am eating just now.

I just cant.

Food is poison.

Only in your mind - you have to defeat your own inability to eat.

I can tell you what to do but you have got to realize that you have to eat and then do it, no one else can.

LOVE

Sally
