[QUOTE="Hound dog, post: 523893, member: 84"] UAN I'm also glad to see this update.......and proud of you for gaining and eating better. I am no expert, but I wonder............what if you get rid of the scale in your house? (if you have one) If you could research proper portion sizes for foods, then you could concentrate on eating the proper portion sizes for each meal.....maybe make sure you have a food from each food group for each meal as well. It would probably work for snacks too. Then when you feel yourself begin to panic that you're eating "so much".......you can talk yourself down by telling yourself you are not over eating, but eating the proper portions of healthy food you need instead. Sort of refocusing your brain and retraining it. This way your thoughts shift from the scale to eating healthy and the weight will pretty much take care of itself, as you approach what should be the normal range for your height you could stop the snacks and still be eating healthy and be enough to maintain a normal body weight. But you are working with a nutritionist if I remember, so maybe she can help teach you the proper portions you should be eating. (well, honestly we ALL should be eating) And you just toss out the scale and refuse to worry about the numbers.....let the professionals worry about that part. Eating disorders are extremely hard. But you're motivated and I believe in you. You can do it. ((hugs)) [/QUOTE]
