Dinner with my Eating disorder

Boil 2 cups water
Add 2 cups rice
No salt
No margerine
Put it in a bowl and let it sit
Watch it
Give up and take a bite
Punish yourself
5 situps
Another bite
Another ten situps
S~Q~U~I~R~M
How many calories have I just eaten?
Another bite
35 minuites with the jump rope
Pick up the fork again
Put it down
I wonder how far I can push myself
On three bites of rice
Dump the bowl out
And it's two hours on the treadmill
I collapse into bed.
Dinner was exhausting tonite

Well, I would say mostly. Still some days I'm too upset, or stressed to eat.. But most days I feel fine. I think it is something I'll always carry with me, but I am certainly not like this poem anymore. :) *hug*

You know, usually the ones with the eating disorder are brilliant in their intelligence? I don't know...I think it's so sad for someone to have to go through this...

Wouldn't it be great if you could just eat the eating disorder and let the stomach deal with it?

what a deft twist of irony and a pinch of dark humour with quite a serious messgae to it...calorie counting and all that crap..shock revelation: humans aren't meant to be perfect and anyone struggling with this...

it's a shame no doubt, I tell myself let me eat the crap I want...at least if I died I enjoyed my last meal!!! Very illuminating and well spoken...Col.

I use to eat white rice with gravy. I miss those meals.
