I didn't feel this bad when I was thin, dang it!

Posted by Racer on January 3, 2006, at 22:00:21

I'm not doing well right now, and have had a few 'too fat to be seen' days lately -- where I have cancelled things solely because I was too fat. I know I didn't feel this bad when I was thin, no matter how bad things were I just wasn't nearly this depressed!

It's not fair. I'm supposed to be better for eating, not worse. What the heck is going on?

Hi Racer,

Self sabotage. My warped brain does it to me, too. The damn mental devil that takes over my common sense and tricks me into thinking that I feel better when I binge. I feel even better when I purge.

I gave into this self sabotage two days this week. Why I didn't pass out at water aerobics due to dehydration, I don't know. The irony of an electrolyte imbalance in a swimming pool is not lost on me.

Go away self sabotage thoughts. Go away self sabotage thoughts. Repeat until desire to binge/purge or restrict eating goes away. At least it gives my brain something to think about besides career hell which is why I lost control.

Take care. Avoid mirrors. I can tell you right now that you look fine. Really. I don't lie. Except to myself. LOL.
