Could use some motivation to eat right now
I'm trying to stop my disordered eating. I'm 5'10 and 114 lbs. Last year, at this time, I was 164. MFP says just to maintain I need 1,690.

Warming almond milk?
I have dark chocolate almond milk - does it taste as good microwaved or warmed up over the stove? Just started drinking it so I'm not too sure if it's a good idea! Thanks!

I am 5'9 and 114 lbs, and was 164 when I started. I've upped my calorie intake to 1,100 at most lately -- which is an improvement, though still not enough. Plus, I am…

So afraid of binging
