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

OCD and disordered eating
Trigger warning Has anyone else dealt with disordered eating to cope with OCD? I’ve found that I often lose weight during a flare because I feel like I don’t deserve to eat. I’m wondering if this is common, it feels very isolating and lonely dealing with this.

OCD Flare Ups
Hi guys! Hope everyone is having a beautiful week. I did therapy with a therapist on here and it helped me hugely, I had next to no OCD symptoms for almost 8 months, but recently it’s been flaring up again. I am much better at handling intrusive thoughts and going on with my day but I just have this huge fear of it getting as bad as it was last year. I was unable to get out of bed for 3 months because the intrusive thoughts were so debilitating. I never went to feel that way again. Does anyone have tips on how they deal with OCD flare ups and how they bring themselves back down to a happy medium? Thank you all 🤍
