Re: Not possible for all people
Ummmm…. I completely understand, relate, and agree. Even if we know that is what needs to be done, it feels dead impossible to eat measured meals. I did not think it was possible until I found my way through a 12 step program, coming out of the closet as a food addict, letting G-d into my life … the list goes on. I was never a diet person because I thought I was too cool for diets. There is no single answer for a person on the best way to lose weight or be healthy. There are five million opinions and five million journeys. In this blog, I will only speak of my thoughts, journey, and opinions. I am blunt in my opinions and do not mean to frustrate others. I am sure that your opinions are just as strong (if not stronger) than mine. My only prayer is that each person struggling finds his or her own journey out of their food problems. I believe it is possible for everyone. If I didn’t, I would have lost the hope that has kept me in such a healthy mental and physical state since 2005. … and trust me … I still have plenty of growth in store for me … I am not a finished product.

About Eating Disorder Talk

The goal of Eating Disorder Talk is to encourage family and friends of people living with disordered eating - as well as sufferers - to learn more about the conditions, where to get help, the risks associated and another vessel of communication. I come with 20 years of experience living with (and sometimes for) anorexia; my job is not to cure, it’s to allow others to speak. This means wanting to help those that want help and to provide a voice to those who don’t.
