The Good, Bad, and the Ugly

Let's first start off with the good. I had a wonderful time working on my group marketing project for 6ish hours today. We pretty much finished all of it. How exciting.

Not to mention, we hung out in Nick's room. Eryn and I talked about Nick afterward and decided he is definitely awesome. He is nice, funny, and easy-going. The fact that he is cute helps a bit. All good, right?

Wrong. Mr. Nick is taken. I don't consider myself a homewrecker of any sort, especially in a relationship I know nothing about. Why is that I find someone I think would work and he is taken? Argg. I knew he was taken from day one, but I assumed there was a hint of chance. Highly unlikely.

So, randomly, I decided I no longer wanted to study tonight and decided to gorge myself. That was a double-edged sword. Not only did I not study, I made myself so full, I feel sick. Why? Why do I do this? I actually had a good day for the first time in a long time. What is wrong with me?

I want to become a therapist when I get older. Why? I want to help people. Deep down, I know I need help myself. I know I have a problem and yet do nothing about it. I want to learn more about why I treat my body so badly and why I continue to lower my self esteem.

One day, I will overcome this and have the education to help others like me. Those who also have an unhealthy relationship with food. I am going to counsel men and women with eating disorders. I feel I have the knowledge and experience to do so.

Step one, overcome this. Starting Wednesday, December 15, I am done with my unhealthy relationship with food. All temptations will be gone, so I can fully commit. I am in a downward spiral and I just don't understand it. I used to be the skinny girl. The healthy eater. The one who wore clothes too big for her. The one who could get guys.

Now, I am the girl still trying to wear those clothes, but killing myself in the process. The one who can't get a guy because she feels unworthy. The one who doesn't care what she puts in her body as long as she is satisfied at that moment.

God, this is scaring me. I CANNOT be overweight again. It would kill me. I all ready struggle with mild depression because of my poor self-image. This cannot get worse.

I want to get married one day. I want to solidify my relationship with God and let Him know how much I appreciate Him. Right now, I need to get right in my head. This constant sinning is unacceptable. God deserves better. My friends and family deserve better. I deserve better.

Summary of my day:

The good: having a great day with friends and working on marketing. Oh, and Nick. :)

The bad: Nick is not available. God didn't intend for this to work out just yet, if ever.

The ugly: me if I continue to eat like this. God, please help me. I am broken and need Your help.

In your name, Amen.
