He's a good doc, unlike some of the ones that E.A has apparently run into. <br /><br />You can do it! And the world is not going to end - at least not until 2012, when the Mayan Long Count ends.

Also if you've got a food store, as a good Mormon I know you do, you know you need to rotate the food. So does ED let you eat it when you rotate it around? <br /><br />I too know what it's like. I can't have an ED cause I'm overweight - forget normal weight I'm obese - I love it when the Dr.'s try and say well yeah but.. NO that's what you said when I started this diet. If I walked in today for the first time that's what you would say. Sure I've lost about 55% of my body in 15 months but there's still more to go! Sorry I'm in an ED mood. He is winning today and it's spilling out everywhere. <br /><br />Please fight and win! that will give me some encouragment.Eating With Othershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07885274679677042833noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1780058410537977838.post-7938926504463181752009-09-14T00:38:46.685-07:002009-09-14T00:38:46.685-07:00I"m glad that you are fighting those ED thoug...I"m glad that you are fighting those ED thoughts. From now on you can either refuse to be weighed at the doctor's (new concept to me too) or ask them not to show you your weight. <br /><br />I know what you mean about not being thin enough to be taken seriously. Totally irrational thoughts, but there none the less. I'm glad your doctor is so invested in your treatment regardless of your weight. <br /><br />It's 3am and I should probably try to go back to sleep...Khttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02777608805308517582noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1780058410537977838.post-59927170719187137722009-09-13T14:39:17.492-07:002009-09-13T14:39:17.492-07:00Stay strong and stay connected with what you know ...Stay strong and stay connected with what you know is real and with what you really want. As you know, that whole idea of having to lose x pounds by your follow up is not what you TRULY believe so keep fighting that thought. That doctor is so great; he's already shown you he'll take you seriously (and if he didn't take you seriously, it wouldn't mean you should weigh less - it would mean you should get a new doctor). Anyway, it's not about doing things for the doctors. It's about doing things for you and your family. Keep going strong, Lisa. You're doing great. By not trying to lose weight, you're absolutely making the right choice. I think the more you triumph over giving into the restriction thoughts, eventually, the less you (and I) will have them. (Which in a way is a scary thing, but we both know it's ultimately the best). Remember, you don't want to stay a little bit sick. You want to be released to be the best you and have your best life. <br /><br />Thinking of you!now.is.nowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05102652111745735039noreply@blogger.com
