Journal Entry for January 17, 2008 Mood

Thursday, January 17, 2008

Today I did my two ensures all though I feel like crap about my weight, I admit that my mood has gone from crabby and irritable to great since I have been doing the Ensures consistency with the help of my therapist. I am a little scared about the weekend because I don't have to check in with my therapist so I know that I will just not drink them. Well, since I have this attitude, I asked a very good friend at work who knows what I am going through if I could call her. So she will be expecting me to call. If I am going to get better, I have to do what my therapist is asking me to do not what my ED is telling me to do. Which is extremely hard. But I have been told that it gets easier. I have a hard time believeing that, but I sure can't wait to be there.

You are right, you have to do what your therapist tells you and fight the ED with all your might. Call your friend, I will check in with you too and encourage you to drink them, I will try to help.

I am with you on this one, I am drinking Ensures, its been hard, but if you play with them, like I 1st froze them, then let them thaw a bit, it was like a slushie.. I have put them in a glass with lots of crushed ice, and also mixing flavors together.. I have found chocolate, vanilla, coffee, and butter pecan flavor.. I have gotten to the point, where, I can at least do the drinks, if nothing else.. I have been doing them for about 6 weeks, and really only gained about 4lbs. Which I know I really needed, and I know my body needs the nutrition.. yes, I want to be thin, but am not willing to give up life.. Or let ED rule me.. When you feel like you are not gonna have an Ensure(that is ED taking over, and making you think distorted). Take a few moments, and shake Ed , and remember you need to drink one, even, if its just half.. I know its hard. If I can help you, I am here.. May blessings find you..
