I'm addicted to food porn, I just can't get the TV of the food channels. Need to see nice food, close my eyes and nearly taste it ( Read more... )

I totally know what you mean about being addicted to 'food porn'! My mom bought me this vegan cookbook the other day with this huge colour pictures of the foods...mmm...

Oh wow, did you know there ia a food_porn community? I found it last night and was SO tempted to join right on the spot. They had delectable photos of their dishes and it all looked mmmmmmmmgoooooood.

I meant to post this on your last thread yesterday..I think you have the greatest e-friends in the world. I was so touched by what those people had to say to you. As lame as it sounds, I felt proud to know them through you. It's clear that you have people in your life who truly care for and want the very best for you. I can't think of anyone who is more deserving of that than you. I'm glad I am not the only one who thinks you are pretty darned fantastic :)

By the way, I always enjoy reading about your daughter. I hope she is doing ok.

Added a post about charlotte, it was fun to be all motherly and proud, blabbing about how your child is the greatest....

I am really lucky to have meet so many really genuinely nice people on here. The up side to pro ana groups, once the wannabes get board some really good supportive and healthy friendships can be formed. And I definitely seem to have been lucky enough to have been blessed with the best of them.

Must find that food porn community :o)

Maybe you can have the mushrooms in an egg white omelette? :)

I've heard that the food tv networks are a huge hit among the eating disordered :) imagine that.

Stay well. Love you lots!

Guess what I had?

Mushrooms in egg white. Spooky!

Love you too.

Definitly strange, but agreed it's kind of nice too.

Food porn is amazingly awesome. I've found a couple of sites I'm just addicted to sometimes, so I know what you mean.

Yea, try not to get into fast modes, esp. nowadays, take in a little something.

Love you much, <3

It's strange how easy it is too slip into it. I'm sure in the really old days 12 years or so ago, I used to be with the majority of people who were convinced I would die if I didn't eat anything for a few days. Now it seems natural and far harder to eat than not to.

Eventually about 8pm I got into gear, dealt with not feeling hungry and had egg whites and mushrooms.

Somehow I managed to lose a lb too. why is it that I lose more restricting than fasting?

d0llcr0tch February 23 2005, 08:38:41 UTC

I've noticed that too. Honestly, a lot of the time it puzzles me. My experiences with fasting though, it totally kills my metabolism, so restriction is the way I have to go, even when I'm not hunger, I'll throw in something in there. Congrats on the lb hun! Stay strong. <3

fastingfriend February 23 2005, 12:46:15 UTC

I've had that happen too! Lose nothing when fast and then lose a pound when eat. weird. It is just so much harder to try to face the beast sometimes than to just avoid it altogether.
