Wow, it's been a while since I've checked FS... Yeah, stuff been going on I guess. A lot of ups and downs with my food/eating issues. I'm trying to get back up there. I'm apparently supposed to be burning between 1600-1900 at a sedentary level...yikes! I've been past 1000 for 2 days now. I feel horrible about it, but I know(logically) that it's a good thing for me.
I'm loving doing workouts and walks on my own time. I usually do about a 50 minute workout routine everyday(unless I'm really sore or something) I start out with two songs of cardio/aerobic type activity(jumping jacks,jump rope, jogging in place, butt kicks, and boxer's shuffles) then about two songs worth of weight lifting(bicep curls, deadlifts, squat drops) and two songs of abs(situps with and w/o weights, crunches, planks). Then I do one cardio song, and repeat the weights and abs with a song just for leg work thrown in. I think that sounds like a good plan to me. Plus I try to stay on my feet a fair amount as well. I take 40-60 min walks a few times a week, clean up around the house, cook all my own food(yay!) and stuff for my family as well as experiment with foods.
The counseling seems to be going alright. My fourth appointment is next Wednesday, so we'll see how it goes. I've talked a great deal about why I do what I do and some of the reasons that may have caused them. It seems to help; I feel a bit lighter afterwards and somewhat silly in a way. It's going to take a while for me to really change how I feel about food and eating and everything else. I'm still having days where I'll and spit constantly. It will be food that I can't eat(usually stuff that no one else is eating either) like leftover holiday candy, bread, cookies that no one will eat, and other things. I still purge on occasion, but I'm reigning it in. I hate the feeling of being full, and I love the feeling of disposing of my food, but it's not good...not at all.
I hope everyone else has been doing great, it seems to be a bit of great and ok(from what I've glanced at). Good luck you guys! ^_^
