Way to go Jana!!! Thats HUGE! ![]()
Day 1986 : No binge today. ![]()
@Jana1988 You mentioned your mom is in a binge diet cycle and doesnāt want help. ![]()
I understand itās painful watching another person (in this case your mom) suffer from the same eating issues you did.
Donāt beat yourself up, you cannot force her to get the help she needs, thatās something that she has to want.
You can still support her but otherwise itās unfortunately up to her in the end, and itās out of your control. ![]()

Thank you very much for your words, @Aleyadaisey
I didnāt know I needed to hear something like this until I read it. It feels painful and I feel powerless and itās really hard because it is my um and I want the best for her ![]()
Like you say, I canāt give her any help if she doesnāt ask for it, because she will be in denial. I at least try to talk about my issue and the therapy I had and how much it helped me and how better I feel now. Maybe she will realise that the forever hunt after a āperfect bodyā is never going to reach any satisfaction and that itās just a huge waste of time ā¦
Thank you very much again for writing that down for me ![]()

After my very happy evening at the Tango Milonga, my mood crashed dramatically.
I had a very difficult conversation with my partner yesterday. I hope we find a way to stay connected and I really hope he begins to see my side of the story, too. I love him and I want to be with him. I know he loves me too. And he wants to be with me. So, there is hope.
Very glad I started the wegovy medication. Itās really helpful for me.
Have a peaceful day, everyone ![]()
Thatās so wonderful to hear!
Yesterday was not a great day, but a ānormallyā bad day. I ran 6km in the morning, then went on a bike ride in the afternoon with my son, so I was HUNGRY! in the evening. I had plans to eat a premade noodle dish that you add your own toppings to, but it was rather stingy portion size, but instead of preparing something else proper as well, I thought I would just āhealthyā snack later. But as I was still actually hungry, after my āhealthyā snack I ended up eating crisps AND biscuits, a normal-ish portion of each, but still, I donāt normally double dip processed food this past month or so. Honestly, I could have eaten more after that, but just had a big cup of tea and went to bed.
I think my PMS is also a factor, as I am seriously irritable and craving heavy food. I made a big vat of vege chilli and ate a massive portion and am feeling satisfied with that.

Great job on ur timers friend! Can I ask⦠why do u think ur doing okay with ur eating?
Day 11
Feeling under the weather today (I lost my voice from what? Idk lol). I still ate breakfast and now Im enjoying a coffee before the gym. Going to focus today on trusting God with my recovery from food. Whenever I feel not the greatest, I tend to struggle with my eating and thoughts of wanting to engage in my ED. So since I know this, I can be proactive. Lots of self care today will happen today too. Just want to feel better
Have a great day everyone!
Thanks for asking!
TW wegovy/semaglutid/ozempic
(Can someone help me and blur the text below? I canāt do it , donāt know why it isnāt working)
The wegovy / semaglutid is having an enormous effect on my cravings and the size of my meals. So, I donāt know: Am I doing good? Or is it just the medication? Iām a little confused about it.
In the end, I donāt binge and I keep eating foods that are healthy for me. So I guess I am doing good, without the huge effort it usually takes? Feels strange⦠Did you have the same feeling when you were on ozempic?

My parents visited yesterday. I enjoyed the time with them very much.
My mom brought her famous chocolate walnut cake. I had some and it took me back into my childhood. So Iām setting back my keto timer, but it was very worth it.
Have a peaceful day, everyone!

Hey friend! Sorry it took me soooo long to respond back to ur post.
Yes, when i was Ozempic, i lost my appetite aswell. My portions were quite a bit smaller and even the food noise disappeared!!! That⦠I LOVED!!! I barely got an bad side effects from it either. The only problem was that my body built a tolerance for it fairly quickly. I had to keep going up in dose and eventually i no longer was able to pay for it. But⦠in Canada this year, generic Ozempic is coming out and i may go back on it. Not sure yet. It should be much cheaper.
I think at the end of the day, what matters is that ur not binge eating or participating in disordered eating at all. Thats what the medication is helpful for (amongst other things). Have u lost weight on it? Just make sure ur eating enough
You dont want to lose muscle mass in the process.
Glad its helps u tho!!! Im excited for u ![]()
No worries ![]()
Thank you, thatās good to know ![]()
I track my calories and protein intake so I donāt lose my hard earned muscles ![]()
I lost a little weight, but not too much. Because of the keto and the smaller meals, my belly is less bloated, so I feel better in my skin.
I still experience emotional eating and Iām staying aware of my coping tools.
