Yeah, I remember crying a lot during those weeks
I know what you mean. I so many feelings that I couldn't understand. I was happy to have lost the weight, but at the same time, felt very guilty about the more negative feelings that cropped up. Hard to explain really.
I was very scared though. Scared I might lose the plot, scared of not knowing how a thin person lives, scared of not being able to live the dream, scared that more would now be expected of me. But most of all, scared that I wouldn't be able to binge again...(which I did BTW), but knew that I would have to find another outlet..forever.
It was the 'forever' that frightened me the most.
When I had maintained for a year, I put a message up on here, and whilst people replied congratulating me, I sat and sobbed for about 4 hours
All sounds so daft now, and I think that my reaction to getting to goal/maintaining was probably extreme compared to most, but perhaps it has to do with my age/how long I had lived with the problem.
Or maybe I'm just a nutter
.
But OMG, it's been so worth it. I don't regret one moment of working through the plans and sorting out the eating problem once and for all.
