I'll post my weight stuff in a second but first @amelisha therapy is not like going to a dentist where they fill you're tooth and the cavity is gone. Therapy is an on going forever process.

I used to cut myself and use other means to self harm. For the past decade I have been working through this in therapy. The fact of the matter is I will always be a cutter. Now I'm just a cutter in recovery. Just like an alcoholic. You are never cured you are simply in recovery.

I am fucking proud I don't take a razor blade to my body anymore. But the fact is when I get upset I snap rubber bands around my wrist. I pull my hair. I pinch myself. Normal people don't deal with emotions this way. This is not normal. I recognize that. I talk about it with my therapist.

Yes, you are kind of fucked up. Guess what? Most people are. I am. My wife is. @ashley8918 totally is. That girl don't eat cake. Or french toast. Something wrong with her. That's life. You're fucked up welcome to the club.

Now onto my body. It's small. I only weigh 95lbs. But ya know what? It's my body. It's the only one I got so goddamn it I'm gonna love it. I've got small tits, I'm fucking short, I'm skinny as all get out, but still have kind of a big ass, I've got scars, I'm pale, and fuck anyone who doesn't think my body is just fine the way it is

Also. Ladies. I keep seeing something along the lines of "I hate the way I look but my SO still likes me so I must be ok". Stop. That. Yes it's wonderful they think you're beautiful. But fucking hell women LEARN TO LOVE YOURSELVES. You are not worthy and acceptable because someone else says you are. You are worthy and acceptable because you are worthy and acceptable.
Hey! I eat carrot cake now!
...that's not cake, it's salad masquerading as cake.

Going back to lurking this thread now.
Carrot cake has so much fucking sugar in it. At least chocolate cake has antioxidants from the chocolate that are slightly beneficial. Carrot cake has 0 redeeming qualities (I don't even think that it tastes good).

As for weight: I hit my heaviest weight ever at 124 the other day and it made me feel like shit. Which is fine, because it spurred me into regularly working out (couch potato right here!). Really I just work out so that I can keep my shitty eating habits the same and maintain my weight. DH feeds me too well.

Since I don't know whether Vitamin A from carrot cake or antioxidants from chocolate cake are better, it sounds like I should eat both...

Can I just say that, yes I know I need to lose weight, but I totally had a donut for breakfast and that was seriously one delicious goddamn donut!

Yes you can, and I'll just say that I had a Wendy's burger for lunch with everything and a frosty to wash it down with. And it was delicious.

Wendy's burgers are square and unnatural.

I approve of the frosty. As long as it was chocolate.

So I've been thinking about something. Earlier I mentioned I weigh about 127 now. Well all throughout high school I weighed around 120, and if you look at pictures of me back then, I look a bit chunky. But in pictures of me now, I like to think I look less chunky. I started to wonder why that might be, and came up with a bazillion answers. I wasn't known for wearing clothes back then that fit me well or were particularly flattering. I also had terrible posture in comparison to now, which can really affect your appearance. And I was way more sedentary than I am today.

And as bad as my eating habits are now, they were way worse than now. You know those Marie Calendar's chicken pot pies? Yeah, I used to eat them as an after school snack. Not a meal. A snack.

But somehow, I still weigh more than I did in high school. But I look and feel way better. Probably because pot pies are now a sometimes food.

Uhhhhhh, is this abnormal? Because, if so, I am NOT normal.

We have already established that.

larrygaga · April 2015

I used to eat 2 packs of ramen for a meal. I can sit and eat a family sized back of Doritos or a block of cheese.

So normal and safe!

NowIamMrsKlein · April 2015

Now I want all the cake!!

FI has been begging me to make his mums chocolate zuchnni muffins lately, and I keep putting it off, because... addicting.

But now...

I am loving this thread! There is way too much body bashing these days and it always seems to go both ways "if you're curvy you're fat" "if you're skinny you aren't a real woman", I am really enjoying everyone owning their bodies on here and just saying "this is what I am"!

I was an athlete from the time I was 8, needless to say 20+hrs of gymnastics a week kept me in great shape and I probably ate more than a linebacker. Losing the muscle after being done kind of sucked because I was so used to having it but not used to exercising without being yelled at. Now I've learned to just love the way I am, I exercise sometimes, when I get into a groove I feel good, but if I go a couple months without it I don't beat myself up over it. I'm 5'0" and at my peak of health in college I weighed between 109-115, now that I'm not doing the intense workouts anymore I hover between 100-110. Yeah, I have no boobs, I'm skinny, and I own it. It's my body and I only get one so I'm going to enjoy it even if my tiny boobs are so small they weren't on the sizing scale when I got measured for my dress!

I have been known to eat an entire large pizza by myself. With toppings. And by large, I mean a 16" pie, not the piddly little ones the chain places try to pass off as a large.

NO SHAME.

afox007 · April 2015

I finally tossed my scale. I'd say were pretty close in size I'm 5'9" 195. And depending on the brand between a 10-14. It took a long time to accept that I would never be a size 4 again, but after seeing our engagement pictures I realize I look way better and a lot healthier than I do in my old prom pics.

I spent most of last year dieting and weighing myself obsessively. I would get down to 170 and then life would happen and the weight would come back. I finally realized I was comfortable in my body and fuck what my mom or anyone else says. Tossing the scale in the trash was one of the most freeing experiences ever. No more dieting instead I just focus on eating heathy by cooking more and avoiding the frozen food section for anything but veggies (and the occasional pint of ice cream).

I've never had chocolate zucchini muffins, but I'm obsessed with zucchini bread. Those muffins sound amazing!

redoryx · April 2015

As much as I want to, I cannot for the life of me break up with my scale completely just yet. I think it's because I'm TERRIFIED of weighing over 300 lbs again. I'm trying really hard to focus on more mindful and intuitive eating and not be overly obsessed with The Number but it's so hard when you come with a history of being that heavy and a history of disordered eating. My relationship with food is much much better these days but it's still hard to completely abandon weighing myself, no matter how infrequently

Half -marathon training isn't helping either because I'm up, which is pretty common when training, so right now I'm trying to stay away from the scale if I can because I don't want it to fuck with my head too much. After the half in a few weeks I'll see where I am and make a plan from there.

That being said, I've got some vacations coming up and bought a TWO-PIECE bathing suit. It's a high-waisted bikini and I have never had a two piece before and I don't care that I weigh 235, when I put that thing on I feel like this:

They are dangerously good. Zucchini makes them so moist. Doubled chocolate with cocoa and chocolate chips. Ground cloves for a bit of spice.

Know what I am doing tonight

This is very true. I have bad anxiety and I used to have an eating disorder. I am in no way cured, but I'm doing better. It's something I will have to work on for the rest of my life, and I'm ok with that. Everyone has shit they deal with, but you have to deal with it and be ok with the fact that you are dealing with it.

Now onto my body. It's small. I only weigh 95lbs. But ya know what? It's my body. It's the only one I got so goddamn it I'm gonna love it. I've got small tits, I'm fucking short, I'm skinny as all get out, but still have kind of a big ass, I've got scars, I'm pale, and fuck anyone who doesn't think my body is just fine the way it is

Also. Ladies. I keep seeing something along the lines of "I hate the way I look but my SO still likes me so I must be ok". Stop. That. Yes it's wonderful they think you're beautiful. But fucking hell women LEARN TO LOVE YOURSELVES. You are not worthy and acceptable because someone else says you are. You are worthy and acceptable because you are worthy and acceptable.
Hey! I eat carrot cake now!
...that's not cake, it's salad masquerading as cake.

Going back to lurking this thread now.
AMEN. Carrot cake does not even count as cake.

We are having sweet potato cake at our wedding though and that shit is gooooooood. Does not taste like a vegetable.

TELL ME MORE ABOUT THIS. yum.
Looks like this. It's honestly the best cake ever. I don't even know how to describe the flavor. It's so amazing.

I love anything and everything sweet potato, I don't know how I've never had sweet potato cake!
That looks AWESOME!

I bet it tastes like a less dense pumpkin bread! And is that cream cheese frosting? Because IT SHOULD BE.

I was just about to ask about the cream cheese frosting!

I'm always heavier than I look. My set point seems to be around 160- that's what I weigh when I'm not hardcore working out and analyzing everything that comes near my mouth, but am reasonably active and eating healthy. I am currently 164.

I'm having a hard time. I would like to get down to 150, which is the high end of healthy BMI and it's a weight I'm pretty comfortable with. I have a bit of hypertension from some meds I'm on and I figure losing some weight would help. Plus, I'd like to get knocked up in about 6 months and I'd like to get in good shape beforehand.

At least I'm at a point in my life where I'm more concerned about my health than agonizing over my looks. I'm 5'5 and the only time I got under 130 was when I was 16 after a year of disordered eating and then getting rotavirus and thus being hospitalized for dehydration. So 145-150 is a pretty good weight for me. Still, if I am working out and eating healthy and I still don't get to that, oh well.

I used to eat 2 packs of ramen for a meal. I can sit and eat a family sized back of Doritos or a block of cheese.

So normal and safe!

@flutteringinfl Yup I was totally gunna say that I used to stop at the convenience store on my way home from high school and get a family size bag of Lays sour cream & onion and eat the entire thing. Then eat dinner when my mom got home 2 hours later. God I wish I still had that metabolism lol

FI was away this week and I definitely ate a family-sized bag of Doritos all by myself in 1.5 sittings. The .5 was only because I felt like a loser for almost finishing the whole bag in the first sitting, so I saved like 10 chips for the next day.

I'm pretty cool, is what I'm saying.

I'll post my weight stuff in a second but first @amelisha therapy is not like going to a dentist where they fill you're tooth and the cavity is gone. Therapy is an on going forever process.

I used to cut myself and use other means to self harm. For the past decade I have been working through this in therapy. The fact of the matter is I will always be a cutter. Now I'm just a cutter in recovery. Just like an alcoholic. You are never cured you are simply in recovery.

YES. It's like pumpkin bread without pumpkin spice. I guess that's a good description. And DEF on the cream cheese frosting. I really shouldn't even eat cream cheese icing because I'm lactose intolerant, but I I have no cares when it comes to this cake.
