Hello everyone, I'm cupcake. I'm here to keep accountable to lose weight, get over anorexia thoughts and become healthier.
I've been dealing with a lot of anorexic thoughts that leads to binging. I binged last night.
I'm trying a new approach now to shed 10 pounds, healthy eating and fueling my body.
I have a lot of mental illness and meds that make it hard to lose weight. 4 years ago, I had a mental breakdown with religious delusions and psychosis and it landed me in a mental hospital where I was diagnosed with schizoeffective disorder (schizophrenia and bipolar), I'm on 3 different meds and I gained 20 pounds on them, which put me at 150. I've lost 10 but am having trouble losing the last 10.
I'm going to take things slow, .5lbs a week with healthy eating.
I'm an active person, 15k-20k steps a day and 20 mins pilates 5-6 days a week. I discovered pilates earlier this week and just love it! I used to do light weights but just wasn't enjoying it, so I tried aerobics and hated it even more. Pilates is where my love for fitness is.
I used to want to be 110 pounds, but realistically 130 is where I want to be.
I smoke pot in the evening to help cope with a major stressor in my life. I'm at a loss with this situation in my life, which is why I give into anorexia so often. But I *finally* realized I can't starve myself anymore, and I don't want to.
I like to live by a persona (which helps me keep my sanity and goals in mind) and that is a 'healthy fit girl', someone who eats healthy, works out, is active and positive.
I have major depression as well and usually am a Debby downer, but I want to become more positive in life to help deal with my major anxiety too.
Ok, let's lose 10 pounds healthily!
So let's do this!
