I made a thread quite a well ago about whether my thoughts were normal or whether they were unhealthy and had an element of being disordered. As my partner was concerned has I have had very serve bulmia in my mid teens and strong elements of disordered eating and behaviour up until I was 18/19. The replies were really helpful and said I was behaving normally and in a healthy way.
My partner has anorexia at moment herself but is now concerned I'm under-eating too much and pushing myself too hard isn't healthy anymore. I'm not sure in my last previous thread people said if I was ever concerned again to ask everyone on here and they would be honest.
I lost 3.5lbs this week, 3lbs last, 2lbs the week before. My partner thinks 3.5lbs is too much for someone of my current weight. I guess I need some adivce if what I'm doing is disordered so if it is I can do something about it now.
I don't eat breakfast but never really used to either so thought it was normal for me BUT I have been waking up hungry and thinking I'll wait until lunch as having breakfast would mean extra calories. But I do eat more towards the later half of the day. I know the plan only works if you only eat until you are full but I've been so worried about eating when I'm not hungry and therefore eating too much that I don't eat sometimes before I feel I eaten enough so must be full. I'm finding it really hard to tell when I'm hungry as my tummy doesn't rumble anymore and when I'm not sure deciding it would be better not to. But later in the day I can start to feel weak and sick. I get really upset when it loose less than 2lbs e.g. when I have lost 1.5lbs I feel like I have done something really wrong. Even when I loose 2lbs I feel I could have done better and feel disappointed that I didn't loose 2.5lbs. I do exercise a fair amount an hour of walking a day is the minimum I let myself do, I can do an hour and half of walking plus 30 to 45 mins of dancing and this would be normal.
An example of an normal day of food at the moment would be
Breakfast- None
Lunch- Pasta pot chicken flavour- 1 syn, pack of 150g to 200g of strawberries, raspberries or blackberries, sometimes I have a muller light yoghurt as aswell sometimes not.
Snack- Pack of 150g to 200g of raspberries, muller light but only if didn't eat it with lunch
Dinner- Chicken breast with spices on, wedges with spices done with frylight (2 normal sized potatoes), babycorn, runner beans (1/3 of my plate) Tomato sauce 2 tablespoons- 2syns
Snack- Cassonvera snacks- 4 syns, funsize milkyway 3.5 syns
Total syns- 9.5 syns
I keep thinking I look like I'm eating enough, having my syns (most days), and overall think in 28 weeks 3st 11lbs isn't too much at all. I think my partner is maybe over worrying because of her own issues with food?
I have had a complete day off today and burger king and cake as it's my partners birthday and will do the same for mine on tuesday. So hoping this makes this me normal (I haven't had many days off since I started)
Please be honest (and kind lol)
