Needing friends
This is one of the hardest posts I may ever make. I am a 33 years old, I am really having a hard time with my ED. I have battled the gauntlet, anorexia, bulimia... for more than 20 years. Right now I just honestly feel out of control. I would just like to reach out and have some friends while I start this whole process…
Binge Eating Disorder Anyone?
Does anyone here suffer from binge eating disorder? I’m feeling a little bit alone. I’d love to be able to talk with someone that is facing the same issues as I am. If you’re here, I’d love to be your MFP friend 😊

some progress but still some challenges
I actually started September 1st but I wasn't on MFP and wasn't counting/logging. It would look a lot like October. 1500 is the minimum recommended for men. So, 5 days in a row at or very near it. Today will likely make 6. I have logged breakfast and a snack, and pre logged lunch, but today's bar still has ~650 to go. I…

Body Image
I just started using this app as a means to track my calories to see how much I really am eating ( as suggested by a trainer at my gym). As with anything food related, it is becoming an obsession and I feel safer when the total number is under the suggested calorie intake. I have been dealing with eating disorders for over…
new here
16 August 2017 Dear all I have been toying with MFP since last year but found out it reactivated an old eating disorder. One year after, I decided to start again from mindset and I'm here for the long haul. As most people with a past of eating disorders, I did manage to lose weight effectively in the past, and got it all…
Please help (grocery store)
Does anyone have any tips for getting through a visit to the grocery store? I need to go right now or I won't have any dinner (which my ed brain loves) but I'm too terrified to go!!! I'm so nervous and I keep crying and no one understands what it feels like because no one around me has an ed so i don't know what to do! I…
Motivation & Inspiration
I've decided to start a visual motivational board here! Feel free to add images to this post you find inspiring so that others may have a place to go when they feel like recovery is just to hard, or the battle isn't worth it. It is! Never give up! You can do this! Recovery is possible!
Trying to recover
This month is especially a struggle with the holidays coming up. But I'm sure I'm not alone when I say, I think I need some help with motivation and support to keep things at bay. I would like to say that I'm finished with it, but it's never that easy. Things have to change, I can't keep doing this anymore. I need to learn…
