Here's just a little sample from the Eating Distress Uinversal Language of Stress and Destruction.

Funny our thoughts.

Ow my God do you honestly want that slice of cake. ow dare you! Do you know how many caloires are in that. You should have eaten the apple. AHHHHHHHH

How could you be hungry tou only 3 hours ago. No you have to go for a walk first, then do this, then do that. No way are you eating.

Em you could pick at this, how about some nuts, or chocoltae, go on, go on, pick at seeds etc etc etc

Ow my God what will have for my breakfast- do want porridge, do you wnat yogurt- no you ate too much, ow my God. I have to go for a walk.

I have to go for a walk, have a shower, clean the house. I have to make a hat, i have , i have to, i have to ahhhhhhhhh. Explode.

Ow my God your tummy is so bloated. Ow the noises. You shouldnt have eaten that, did you want it. AHHHHHHHH Decombust!

Jeez, our thoughts can really be so overwhelming, so once yo are aware of them. Change them, slow down, remeber learn to walk before you can run.

PS THESE WERE MEANT TO BE FUNNY.

Emerh hon I have missed ur

Emerh hon I have missed ur posts welcome back!! I hope ur feeling better, i have to be honest after reading ur last 3 posts i feel more motivated to full freedom. I give in too easliy to the voices, go for a walk, clean the house, the confusion over what to have for my brekkie. Having a session yesterday and then group right after made me realise my area of work in my recovery right now, teh feelings. So often i override my feelings, what i want in the moment, how i feel with what the ed says or has said through a plan, oh but i said id go to tennis today, i should go to meet people, to move. Whereas really i harldy slept last night and have been sleeping soo well recently so after one night of not much sleep i feel exhausted but i feel i should go to the ladies open morning. This is not how i feel, i feel like just relaxing, maybe going to starbucks, sitting out on balcony witha acappucino ajnd my notebook and my book. Its my thghts that are the problem and i need like u to question them more. I have forgotten to work on my dreams na have been concentrating more on what i haev to get don,e the errands, the to do lists up to my arm, the shoulds, its difficult for me not to go with a plan or not to simply do, its difficult for me to just be, but im not saying i cant do it, i can and i am, thnx so much for ur posts, im sittin g still and doing what i want, 1 to cara, nil to condition xx
