[Aug. 29th, 2006|11:57 pm] |
Safe Foods: ~Any fresh fruit (especially strawberries, blueberries, peaches, apples, kiwi, grapefruit, watermelon, cantaloupe, and clementimes) ~Fresh or stemmed veggies (especially carrots, green peppers, cucumbers, broccoli, celery, italian green beans, and cauliflower) ~FF Yogurt ~Coffee (not really a food but can warm you up and satisfy you) ~Veggie Vegetable Soup (Typing this list has helped me see why it is so difficult for me to go a day with purging....because there are not enough foods that I consider safe:(
Trigger Foods: ~Cereal ~Pizza ~Pasta ~Any fast food (especially french fries) ~Chocolate ~ICE CREAM ~Chips of any kind ~Popcorn (it just leads to me wanting to eat more) ~Peanut Butter ~Cookies ~Alcohol (b/c it tend to eat more) ~Let's be honest...any meal that another person would call "normal":( |

| Just a little stressed! |

| | stressed | ] | I don't know how everyone else is, but when I get really stressed I almost feel like I have to b/p to make myself feel better. But then after the dreaded cycle, I usually feel worse about myself and am back to square one since I didn't do anything constructive to deal with the stress. I know I should just talk to my friends, family, or my boyfriend, but I have always been one to not like to share my negative feelings with others and would rather be alone when I am emotionally upset.
Well, with all that said, this has not been a good time for me. I have 2 weeks of classes left (which means the profs are trying to squeeze everything in and finals are right around the corner), my therapist dropped me on friday so now I have to find a new therapist that is under our insurance, and the worst thing of all is that my dad is in the hospital since he just had surgery to remove three cancerous tumors in his colon. I don't want to share the details about my dad, but things are a lot more progressed than the doctors previously thought. He will be starting chemo in 3 weeks once his body heals from the surgery. I stayed the night with him in the hospital last night so my mom could go home and get some sleep. I have not been able to concentrate on school work because I am so emotionally out of it...all I can think about is my dad and I keep praying that he will be able to fight this. I am able to stay strong while I am in the hospital with him, but once I get home I just lose it. I start thinking about 'worse case scenarios' and then feel incredibly guilty about not having control over Bulimia while my dad is going through everything.
I feel as though my life is suffocating me while I only have the means of breathing through a straw to get the needed air. God, please help my dad fight this cancer and give me strength to be a better daughter! |

Hello Everyone!
I'm new here. I am 23 years old and in graduate school in the states. I have been struggling with weight issues since I was a sophmore in college and have been bulimic now for over a year. I am 5'10'' and weight 129lbs.
I feel as though this will be a great community for me as I will be able to talk to people who understand how I feel, the concerns I have, and the struggles I live with day to day. Through support and encouragment, hopefully we can realize that we are more than this disease.
I would love to meet all of you and will share more of my story along the way!
Take care, Bri |
