I did want to update you all from my last post. Last post was definitely a Debbie Downer, but I'm feeling slightly better. Telstaar mentioned in a comment that it made sense that my eating disorder was acting up so much because of all the things I have going on in my life right now with the GRE and moving, etc. I'm so glad that Telstaar made that comment because that never occurred to me, but I feel like she hit the nail on the head. Thanks, Telstaar. And thank you everyone else for your supportive comments. You all are so good to me. :)
I've just been feeling so out of control with food lately. I want to be losing weight, but I just keep G-A-I-N-I-N-G. Gaining, gaining, gaining, gaining. Blargh. Dr. K says I'm gaining weight because I want to lose weight so badly and it keeps backfiring. You know, the whole restricting/bingeing cycle. I'm a pro. Ha. I really really really want to stop bingeing, it just that it sounds like such a good idea at the time that it's hard to resist. And I think I've let my guard down because I've feeling so hopeless and like I want to throw in the towel. I need to start fighting ED. I can't wait on this.
Before I sign off, I have some random, exciting news: I bought a mattress for my new apartment. It's a pillowtop and it is great. My neighbors are donating a bed frame so all I needed was a mattress and box spring. The apartment is getting professionally cleaned on Monday, which I am soooo excited about. Since that's on Monday and I have the GRE on Tuesday (eeeeek!), it looks like I'm going to start moving in on Wednesday of next week. Three words: I CAN'T WAIT!!!!!

Oooh I got a new pillow top mattress about 2 months ago and it's awesome :) Great investment you made... if I do say so myself, which I do :D.
You can do it hun! Ups and downs and alll the bits that come in between. We'll be here cheering you on :).
Hope you slept okay in the end.
*hugs*
Love Telly xo
sleeping on a new, comfy mattress is such a delicious feeling! I love it!
Keep fighting- maybe shift the focus to being healthy overall and taking care of your body, rather than losing weight. Then you might lose weight naturally. I don't know its just a thought, now that i read it it sound lame. Mostly i just wish i could say something to help :) i'm thinking of you :)
Yeah! It must be so exciting to be moving out! And a nice comfy mattress? Perfect! It sounds like this moving thing is going to be so great for you.
Keep hanging in there. I understand and feel your weight frustrations. Just keep trying to remind yourself that everything will be okay and work out.
Take care.
love, kristin
Yum...a comfy bed!!! How exciting.
