I am obsessed with what I eat. I have really bad food anxiety and I'm sick of it but I can't let myself gain weight when i still want to lose more....I feel like i've been dieting my whole life and now i go crazy when i go into the kitchen..i get depressed and overeat then I feel horrible about myself afterwards so I cry or overexercise...It feels horrible not being able to control myself it you know what I mean? it makes me feel weak and worthless ..and depressed all the time...help HOW CAN I STOP THINKING ABOUT FOOD ALL THE TIME AND JUST BE NORMAL? please give some advice!

i totaly understand where you are comming from ! everyday i think to myself ok ....i need this,..... the one thing i need in life is my worst enemy.... i can honestly say i fear food more then cancer or anything else silly as it may be i know it is the truth !!!! its weird i go through phases ..... for a few months i will obsess with anything i put in my mouth before i eat it then after months or so im soooo exhausted with worrying that i just go on a mad binge for a few weeks.... till i see what the result of my constant binge is then the whole cycle begins again...

i wish i had some advise to gove to you !!!! i am also looking for a answer.... so if you ever find one please share it with me .
