TW!!! I will talking about ED’s, please do not read this if any mention of that is harmful for you🫶🏻
Im 23 (F) 5’4”, 265lbs. Around 4 years ago, I feel pretty deep into an ED. I lost 60lbs within 5-6 months. I hit a plateau and managed to maintain my weight for like 2 years, before I developed BED. I have now gained 100lbs in TWO YEARS, and I’m even bigger than I was before I lost the weight to begin with. I have completely stopped binging for around 6 months now, yet I’m having an INCREDIBLY hard time losing any weight at all. If I do 8-10hrs of fasting every day for a week, I’ll maintain my weight, but if I eat a normal amount, count cals, and eat healthy (VERY limited sugar/gluten, lots of natural foods/veggies/protein) I notice that I’m still putting on at least 1-2lbs every 2 weeks-ish. It’s almost as if my metabolism is just completely shot and doesn’t know what to do anymore, if that’s even possible lmao
My Dr is aware of all of this and she is aware that I struggle with disordered eating, so before anyone says that I should talk to a Dr, I have that under control already. All she’s really concerned about right now is that I stop bingeing, she hasn’t given me any sort of recommended diet. I also see a therapist every few months and this is a regular talking point, but I’m still struggling. I’m really just hoping that anyone here has a similar experience to mine, and can hopefully help me get in the right direction without falling into the trap again. I can’t just not worry about what I eat or eat intuitively, because I am unhealthily obese, (265lbs at 5’4”) but it’s also incredibly hard to be mindful about diet/weight loss without slipping into dangerous territory again :/
