The End To Junk Food Day

by

I have learned that having an entire day of junk food really doesn’t work for me. After having macaroni and cheese for breakfast on Sunday morning, I felt it in my body. I normally have only fruit in the morning. Fruit is best digested when eaten alone and in the morning before anything else has been digested.

Going from something simple and natural like fruit and moving to macaroni and cheese was hard for my stomach. My body was still recovering from it when it came to lunch. Because of it, I ended up having a much healthier lunch for myself. At night, I had some junk food and my body felt okay.

So, I have decided to end having entire junk food days. Instead, I am only having junk a food dinner on Sunday evenings. Once per week. I am not going to completely end it because then I will feel deprived and jump into the binge life again.

This is still all trial and error. I will see how things go for me this Sunday and make decisions afterwards. Honestly, I think it will work.

    Good post. I think it is possible to recover from depression, but it takes time and patience. I can’t find any good message boards on the net, can you recommend any?

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.
