I've been on a binge / starve cycle for a lifetime, up and down through the same 4 dress sizes. I can only address it because through the 12 steps I've forgiven my mother totally, absolutely and forever. I have been doing Matt Kahn "I love you's" and I can't tell you how much I cried when I first told myself that. It'll change your life.

I think I see kitchen spaces as theatres of war. I have to go right back to basics. Step 1 is learning to cook. Get a recipe. High protein, low carb maybe? And also allowing myself to eat enough at each meal to start to balance my blood sugar. I want to eat loving foods, I deserve to love myself. Feels funny typing that

The support I received here got me two months sober, and Feeling good about life in general. I am now back to my stop on the way home and pick up a six pack everyday routine, and hating myself for it. I also missed all of you and back for day one. Today I brought an extra snack to get me home for dinner instead of rewarding myself with eating almost nothing so I can get my buzz on. Ridiculous, I know but it stops today. In for 24 and the self loathing that comes with it💜
