I had a bad day yesterday. I was alone all day and it started because I was hungry, then ate too much. I had been restricting a lot and I think that's what did it. I'm really trying to set up a SE plan now though. I just keep telling myself that I need the energy to do my workouts.
Of course I told my boyfriend about my bad day - that's something I made myself promise to do is tell him no matter what. Sometimes it will stop a binge because I know that I hate telling him, so I just won't do it. It seems like I can only go a few days though without succumbing to a binge, and I know this sounds familiar to a lot of you. Is this just part of recovery? I feel like when I have a minor relapse, I have failed. Then again, it's not like I completely give up trying to recover and I'm definitely not b/p as much as I used to.
Still fighting <3

Binging is a normal consequence of restrictive eating. Be patient as it may take a few months of structured eating to reduce the binge urge.

Even though your actions were disordered that doesn't mean you aren't still striving for recovery. I know it is discouraging having relapses, I am also trying to accept this fact. That's good that you have your boyfriend to be accountable to. I used to tell my boyfriend every once in a while, but his reaction always pissed me off no matter what it was. Now we aren't together. ANYWAY. You're good sister.
There's Hope,

Even though we mess up, we have to pick ourselves back up and start again. This does not make us quit completely. Just keep going, honey! I know there is a light at the end of the tunnel for all of us!
"Wow, look how beautiful I am."
