I struggle with eating habits too. Remember that eating is what fuels your body to get through your days. I feel like we often lose sight of the fact that we need sustenance to survive! What I have done to lose weight as a 20f is, instead of choosing between healthy and unhealthy, I portion. Indulge in your favorite foods, just don’t eat as much as you can.

Ive never heard of skipping breakfast and lunch to lose weight. Who told you that? Usually its about eating healthy meals and smaller amounts.

You will lose more weight if you eat regular meals - your brain and body need fuel, if you focus on eating breakfast everyday (even if it’s the same thing everyday) you will probably feel much better

I’ve also been trying to lose weight and I’m currently having a flare up but my appetite is nonexistent because of it. I’m trying to focus on protein and low sugar meals. It definitely has an impact on my anxiety

Eating and ocd
Does any one else struggle with eating when on a ocd spiral ( that’s what I call them ) I go through periods where I can’t stand the feeling of food in my body but idk I smoke weed and that helps the thought to go purge everything I don’t know if that’s my ocd or a eating disorder 🫠

Food OCD
I have an ocd over food. I can not feel full if i don't have the last grains of rice and I should count. Before, I got a real bad stomach ache and nausea so I should eat on track. But one of my weirdness appears as time goes on that thing I mentioned and how I have to wait until certain time to swallow and digest the food. It's as if I keep myself for not reccuring anymore. It's so strange, if I don't follow it I would get sleepy and can not concentrate. It's like time really matters to me. And my head becomes weird if I don't listen to it. I wanna fight it but I think I can't. There are times even when I got staggered and wanna fall. Anyone here fighting over food ocd and signals in your head?

Emetaphobia
I have had such a long struggle with OCD and I have doing good for a long time but it is really coming in full force right now. I’m losing weight because I’m having a really hard time eating. I ate yesterday and then my stomach was hurting. I just convince myself that everything is contaminated or now that I’m not eating much that it’s gonna make me sick because my body isn’t used to it. Idk I’m struggling so bad. I’ve had some snacks here and there but it’s so hard for me to eat right now and It’s making me sad because I was doing so good for a long time. I also keep forgetting to take my meds and I know that’s part of it.
