Feeling sick right now…
First off, I just want to thank everyone who has left me notes so far on my entries. I know I was absent for awhile there and am just getting back on now. Thanks for reading my entries and taking the time to leave me a note. It means a lot to me. Anyways, tonight we went out to a Chinese buffet to eat dinner and I am now feeling pretty nauseous. I had 2 plates of food plus some dessert. I know I ate way too many calories but I saved up in the day for it. I had about 150 cals prior to going out to eat but definately wrecked my restricting at the buffet. I didn’t really care too much, but now I really do feel sick. I did do my Wii fit tonight and did extra. Maybe that didn’t help.
I think I am now becoming obsessed with exercising. It’s like any spare moment I have my mind is telling me I should be exercising. I never used to be like that. In fact I never actually exercised at all. I did go for walks and stuff but didn’t set aside time to exercise. Now, I can’t seem to let myself have time off from it. I used to read while my son napped and now I just go on the Wii and go for a run and do some other exercises, thinking now I don’t have to do it at night. But then night comes and I go on cuz I can’t resist burning off a few extra calories. It seems lazy to not go on. Like I have to do it. ARGH. Seems I go from one obsession to the next. I gotta tell ya though, my body is pretty firm at the moment and I do have a nice ass, lol. However, I still feel jealous everytime I go out and see someone who is stick thin. Don’t get me wrong, I really don’t find them attractive at all. I think the women who have some meat and are in shape and toned look beautiful, but I still wish I were that thin person. The one with the huge gap between her legs, the bony arms, sunken cheeks, etc. I miss having all that. I really really do. I feel sad actually to not be that person anymore. But then I think back to what I was like when I had that and I wasn’t a very fun or happy person. So it seems that it wasn’t really great after all. I just gotta keep reminding myself that there will always be someone thinner out there. That’s life.
I am still working hard on controlling my night eating and am doing pretty good. Some nights I do have a little something to eat and a couple nights I have actually had a binge purge episode. It sucked. It’s like I eat, eat and eat and can’t stop until I feel physically sick and about to burst. Why is that. The urge to go for more food is so strong, like a magnet to metal. How do I get over that. Sometimes just by telling myself that I don’t need to eat, I had dinner so I am not actually physically hungry, it helps me not to eat cuz then I know i don’t need it. But then other times I am not so sure if I am hungry or not because I have restricted more, although I did eat.
The hard part is, I never ever feel full anymore and don’t know when I am hungry. It’s like after eating dinner with my family, I have this intense urge to binge and eat everything because I never feel full or satisfied after eating, even if I have eaten a normal amount. So now, after dinner I have to do the dishes right away so I don’t binge. It works. I just wish that I could feel full (not the bursting type of full which is currently the only type i feel right now), but a normal full. I also wish I knew when I was hungry, like when I really needed to eat. I never know if it’s just my mind or my body telling me to eat. Everything is so outta whack.
On the other hand, my daughters OCD thing I think is going to be ok. We saw the Child mental health again and she again mentioned the link between a Strep A infection in kids and then the onset of OCD. I had read up on that before so I knew what she was talking about but then I went home and read again and everything I read was exactly what I was experiencing with my daughter. Now her OCD symptoms are virtually gone (which is supposed to be the case with this link between Strep A and OCD). Anyways, she sees the pedeatrician very soon and will do a test for Strep A but not sure if it stays in ur system that long so we’ll see. But I am hopeful that that is what it is. Thank GOD….
Anyways, am going to go now. Hope you all are well…
Glad to hear your daughter is doing better. And thats something to hold onto. “there will always be someone skinnier. thats life.” i like that. i think we all need to keep tht in mind. I think the hard part in wanting that sick, thin, gaunt figure again is the idealism behind eating disorders. We want everything it stands for. ryn: thank you for your note. =)

I’m the same way…I find fit and toned women very attractive, but yet I want to be emaciated and underweight. It just doesn’t make sense. I have trouble knowing when I’m hungry and full too. I find that every time I eat a “normal” meal, I want to binge binge binge right after. I’m never satisfied.
