5 Day Fast - Day 4

Today is not a good day.  Final Exams are really getting to me.  I'm trying to get sleep but no matter how much I get, I'm still extremely exhausted.  All I want to do is lie down and just...sleep.  I'm so stressed out.  I had an extreme melt-down over the smallest thing last night.  I was hyperventilating and everything.  I couldn't hold myself together.  I'm getting kind of irritated easily too.  I just have no energy.  Walking to my different classes today just wore me out.  Something as simple as that.

So I thought it was the lack of calories I've had lately.  I've hardly eaten anything lately, and I've been working out and going to ballet during that lack-of-calorie-intake.  I have a hard time being myself.  It's a chore to act like I have energy.  It's hard to keep my arm in the air.  I'm just so...tired.  So I tried to eat some today.  I'll tell you it was probably between 500-1000 cal.  I dunno where in the middle though.  I don't really feel like counting the calories I ate today.  I'm just going to feel worse about myself.  I'm set in self-destructive mode and I can't get out of it.  I feel horrible.  Eating didn't help at all.  If anything, I feel worse.  Life just sucks and fasting is making me remember everything bad that's going on in my life.  So I will fast more, so that I can forget everything bad that's going on in my life.

I know this is bad.  My life is slowly and surely spinning out of control as long as I stay so tightly in control like this.  I force myself to be perfect.  Anything less I will not accept.  Numbers and words matter.  Feelings do not.  For me.  I might be going to the gym tomorrow.  Which means I'll be weighing myself tomorrow.  I dread this but I know I must do it.  I feel like eating today and yesterday made me gain 10 pounds.  We'll see tomorrow.

    I hate that ana is so negative. Try to think of how great it is that your fighting harder than anyone you know to be something perfect. Your strength is your comfort. Think of how it will feel once you have reached your goal and are the envy of everyone!

    Stay true.

  2. Thank you, that makes me feel better. I tend to forget the end result this can bring. I needed that support.
