Goal setting thread

[versusthefridge]

What do you actually want out of your recovery from your eating disorder? Gaining weight, losing weight, modifying your diet, beliefs? Write it here, and we'll share and strive for something we can actually see short-term, rather than just wonder when this mystical "recovery" is going to come about.

i'd like to loose weight, but most of all i want to stop feeling guilty everytime i put something in my mouth. i don't know if this is an achievable goal or not!

I too feel guilty after putting something in my mouth even if it's healthy but I eat too much of the healthy food.
I have an intense fear of getting FAT. My friedns think I am crazy for feeling fat and being insecure tell me have great body but I don't see it. I look in a mirror and feel icky.

I do exercise like a mad woman when I think I eat too much which is everyday
If I skip a day of exercise - I am guilty too

What a wonderful idea!!!

My goals for recovery....
1. Maintain my weight at the weight I'm currently at.
2. Follow my meal plan.
3. Be honest and open with my therapist, nutritionist, and family.
4. Keep taking my meds.
5. Stop using laxatives. (I bought more )
6. Continue to eat so I can have enough energy to go on vaca this summer!!! YIPPEEE!!!
7. Relax.
8. Realize food is medicine, and I don't have to feel guilty for giving myself food.
9. Realize I am deserving.
10. And finally...Be able to finally LOVE myself and body!!!!

Boy...I just realized I have a long way to go. OH well!!! I CAN DO IT!!!!!!!!!!!
