The trigger to my binges is restricting. I want to lose weight so I restrictā¦ but then restricting disrupts my sleep and I end up tired and binging. Itās a horrible cycle and I wish I could just find a cure to sleep through the hunger š

My anxiety and panic attacks helped me overcome binge eating disorder. I became so scared of anxiety that I didnāt want to overeat because it made me feel overwhelmed and the negative emotions gave me panic attacks. Looking back, the anxiety saved me.

weight gain and self acceptance
Forget trends and beauty standards, werenāt BBLs the it thing just the other day? And now Kate Moss is the ideal look again. Trends are just the hype until they become the norm again. Itās impossible to keep up with them, so donāt bother. Trends are how capitalism thrives by to making sure we are constantly buying new things and trying new products to change ourselves and keep up with the rat race. You are good enough now and forever! F*ck the systemĀ
Your value is not determined by your body. If you are someone who is used to being praised for your body, or you work in an industry where your success is based on your appearance or weight, then weight gain may seriously affect your mental health. Just keep in mind that your body is your ally and your value is not determined by your body. If losing a bit of weight will make you feel better, and thatās your goal, then thatās ok, but just trust the process and make peace with your journey.

Dealing with weight gain and self acceptance
Weight gain is a sensitive topic for me. For the last 3 months I have been gaining weight after restrictive eating for a long time. I have been struggling with this new-found food freedom, hence developing BED. I have isolated myself and gone through extreme lows. Iāve tried fasting to get back to my old weight, then end up back at square one.Ā
But Iām finally ready to share what I've learnt in hopes of helping:
Itās ok, weight fluctuates:Ā As I grow older and change, my body changes with me, and even things around me are constantly changing. I have to accept the change and realise that I cannot control everything. I cannot count every calorie and wonder if Iām staying within my limit. Itās not a nice way to live life in constant fear and worry.
Making peace with my body: Iām tired of hating my body. Even at my lowest weight, I didnāt like my body. My maintained weight throughout the most of the last year was 42kgs. At that weight I was still not happy nor confident. I didnāt fit in any clothes and I really wanted some curves. I hated my body but I loved being skinny and having that ācontrolā. Through my weight gain, I started being even more hateful towards my body, until I realised that I am ungrateful, and no matter at what weight I am, I will find and fixate on the things I donāt like. I am finally making peace with my body and thanking it for all that itās got me through. I love my new cute curves. I love my fuller cheeks. My body has changed and I am beautiful regardless of ever-changing beauty standards.
