Nothing too special…
CW: 100.5 lbs
BMI: 16.2
b/p: 3
Well, I cut the b/p sessions in half today, so that’s a positive, no?
The day began so productively! I was able to sleep for the first time in a few nights. I got a solid 8 hrs of sleep. It was magic and I woke up 8:45am totally refreshed. I was able to eat breakfast (egg beaters, toast and COFFEE = 130 cals)
I went up to my room and wrote out a short essay and did some reading. Then I ate lunch (asparagus cuts, apple = 140 cals)
I had a class to go to, my 3 hr film classics course. The last class I plan to take for the film major I’m NOT pursuing anymore! We had a break inbetween and I actually got myself a granola bar and ate half of it. My next class was cancelled. My professor, who I’ve had before, was in the hospital.
I dropped off a paper and picked up the graded one from last week. (I got an A…yay! Starting the semester off right, gpa wise anyway)
Then I went home and the day went downhill. I was going to go to an info meeting on the GRE’s, since I have no idea what they are in the end. Until I switched majors a week ago, I never had to think about going to grad school, now I have no choice with art history. I didn’t go to the meeting. I wanted to binge. I felt the urge coming on and my thought process was leaving me. I came home to an empty house and found out my roomies wouldn’t be home for hours. I went out and bought binge food and b/p 3 times for a little over 2 hours. I know, I was bad.
I did the rest of my reading for the night and now here I am. (I’ve also eaten since the b/p twice.) Same snack twice: apple + low cal toast (300 cals for both snack times)
Grand total of 660 cals for the day. My dietition won’t be too happy with me tomorrow. I have to see her as well as a nurse about my bloodtest results.
I wish b/p wasn’t so dangerous for your health. Then I wouldn’t have to give it up. I’ve figured out how to be productive now and still b/p, when before b/p just consumed my life. I dream of the day when I can eat a "normal" amount of food (like 1800 cals), maintain a healthy weight and look in the mirror and see a healthy and thin person. It won’t happen. Eating large amounts packs the weight on. I look in the mirror and wonder if my fat wouldn’t disappear if I could be just a few pounds under 100, rather than an even 100.
::sigh:: What’s a girl gonna do?

You are making progress, and you are doing well. B/P isn’t consuming your life as much as it was, you’ve cut down the number of times you do it, and you’re keeping healthy, good foods down. Look at the positive, and if you’ve done all this, maybe you can cut only one more B/P out today, instead of no B/P, and eat one more snack instead of 500 more cals. Build on the things you’ve done. Good luck!!

Hey girly. Thanks for my note. And yes… I have tried coffee. It doesn’t work for me anymore. Perhaps because I am quite immune to it now- I used to drink like 7 cups of coffee a day. So it does absolutely nothing, unfortunately. but thanks anyway. I hope you’re feeling better. Things will get better hun. remember… baby steps. You’ll get there= I believe in YOU. Love you. Mwah. xoxoxo
