Junk Food Cravings

[chaotica 96]

Something that made me feel better, it might help all of you that have had or might run into this problem. I for a long time and still to this day have a real hard time eating. I have tried a ton of stuff and gone a day or two without eating at all. There was a day when it was going on day three and everything but the bathtub cam back. I was hungry and weak. So I grabbed a few chips. I know it was wrong, but I was really honestly getting so sick I had to try something. Low and behold they stayed down! I only needed a few. I of course had to stop myself from making myself get rid of it. Not because it hurt, but because I didnt want to risk my weightloss. Seems I'm paranoid about gaining anything back. I force myself to eat now, because I found myself at one point being proud of not having to eat for two days. Sounds stupid, but it's honesty and I am a straight shooter with people. So I go to the doc and tell him about this little problem with the chips. Ready to sink into my seat, he looks at me and says " you know Erin, I have heard that many times!" he then looks at my eating habits and goes on to tell me, if I am not getting at least 600 cals a day, then he wants me to eat anything that will stay down. They really push the 600 rule. So there are days when I can't eat, because I feel so sick, I'll grab a handful and eat three to five. Still brings me nowhere near the target, but it helps. I don't really crave them anymore, but I can't let myself starve until the little a**hole that my new pouch can be says okay you can eat now. I know I'll never let myself go back to bad habits because I just don't want those things like that anymore.

This is great advise. I'm really struggling to eat everything just gross me out. I don't want to go back to eating carbs but crackers stay down.
