Had a tough time eating today, and then tried to make up for it in the evening by having a full meal...I've been struggling a bit lately with old hang-ups from the eating disorder, and trying to push past them in order to gain the weight back, and eat enough to sustian me. It's just so hard with the IBS, Type 1 diabetes, and ongoing eating disorder recovery to establish and maintain a healthy relationship with food...

I found myself feeling extremely guilty tonight after actually finishing my meal (it's always been a ritual of mine to leave a few bites of whatever I'm eating)...still trying to work through that.

Anyway, I just have to keep telling myself that I did the best I could today, like I do every day. Sometimes it's just really hard to find out exactly what I need to do to take care of myself, and I'm feeling really shitty about myself at the moment for not getting it right all the time

...anyway, here's what I did today:

*small soy latte, a few organic strawberries, and 1/4 lowfat vegan cinnamon roll

*1/2 bagel with "butter"

*Decent amount of alphabet pasta with sauteed chicken breast, squash and mushrooms in UFO sauce.

Also, 1 tablespoon Tri-Cleanse internal cleanser with Triphala, and 2 Fiberchoice tablets (4 grams SF), plus lots of herbal tea and my usual cocktail of supplements and enzymes throughout the day...
