Hi friends, this is partially a vent post but if anyone has been through something similar I would be really grateful for any advice.
Around June 2020 I had a few serious personal issues crop up on a couple fronts and stopped taking care of myself. I do have a therapist and am in a better mental place now but I haven't stopped my terrible dietary habits and feel completely out of control. I've gained 50 pounds over the past ~7 months, I have stretch marks now, I get out of breath walking up 2 flights of stairs. I hate myself but I can't seem to make myself stop ordering food.
I don't seem to enjoy any part of the process. As soon as I get the compulsion to order food, the dread sets in. Once I order it (and I always do), I feel immediate shame and disgust. It arrives and I eat all of it even though it makes me sick and cry, then I go to sleep hating myself.
My therapist is aware of the issue but no one in my life knows the extent of it. I spent over $1000 on takeout last month alone. I'm wrecking my financial health as well as my physical health and feel completely out of control. I used to be so fit and frugal and I just don't recognize myself now. I need to change
