I love good food. For me this goal is less about counting calories or grams of fat, but counting ingredients.
What I mean by that is, if I don’t know what it is or where is came from, I don’t want to eat it. For instance, I could buy a loaf of bread and see a half dozen preservatives, or buy the ingredients myself and bake the bread at home.
I really like eating wholesomely and knowing what everything is.
Except for the occasional fast food because it’s tasty and I don’t judge people for eating it. I grew up on the stuff and I know that I am very fortunate to be able to realistically set this goal for myself. Not everyone is, and a lot of places are making great strives towards better food.
I just really like taco bell. 2 days ago

UUUGGGHHHH, ever since I’ve moved back in my parents’ house for the summer I have been eating like $h!t. I keep telling myself “tomorrow! once all the junk food is gone!” It’s harder here because I live out of town with not a lot of easy access to the gym and a healthy eating place/grocery store. I’m not going to blame it on that though, I’ve just lost a lot of motivation. 3 days ago

Lot’s of quick fixes and eating out on this super busy weekend. Not happy about it but I do have a better idea of what I will be making the rest of the week. More eating at home for sure! 4 weeks ago

Eat healthier is a little too unspecific right now. Think I’m going to come up with a better way of managing this goal. For one thing, I won’t be able to eat healthier until I break the cycle of binging I have been doing lately. 1 month ago

The Plan…
Nothing but fruits and veggies from now til dinner time. I really need to give my body a break from the junk and sugar!
AM/Noon…
grapes
melon
veggie juice
cranberry juice
Dinner…
4 oz pepper sausage
1/2 cup potato
1 cup green beans (more if still hungry)
1 cup pepper/onions
REALITY…
veggie juice 4 oz
prune juice 3 oz
couple grapes
Those disgustingly artificial neon orange snack crackers… 1 pack.
hummus and pita chips… about .25 cup hummus and 1 serv chips
Right about here I felt like I blew it and consumed…
piece of kfc chicken… (that made me gag from the amount of oil, couldn’t finish)
2 tbs mac n cheese
.25 cup mashed potatoes and gravy
3 oreos and 8 oz 2% milk
6 oz grossly sweet “juice drink”
Not proud but I purged this binge. Just couldn’t handle the idea of leaving it down.
24 oz coca cola… Soda is going to be the hardest addiction to break.
Dinner went as planned but with less peppers and onions and more sausage. Still very reasonable.
Now before I get any negative comments or trying to be helpful should someone read this… please know…
that I don’t have a full blown ED. Prior to kids I did. I utilized a form of ana/mia to maintain a normal weight. Thanks genetics.
During pregnancies and after having kids I went the opposite. I binged but no time or “space” to purge successfully.
Today… I’m trying to adopt healthy eating only but now and then after some awful binges I get so naturally nauseous I do bring it up. It’s not 100% unassisted but I really do feel physically ill enough that it’s worth it to just get it over. I know it’s not healthy. Nor is it the norm. It’s something I’m working on by trying to eliminate the junk and adopt more natural foods that don’t make me ill. :) 1 month ago
