For example:

  • When you open a fresh jar of peanut butter do you only work through one side until it is completely empty then start on the other side?

  • Or when you get those shallow tubs of hummus does it have to make it back home undisturbed? Then one of the baggers at the grocery store shoves it sideways into the bag completely ruining the symmetry.

    I have an eating disorder and while I’ve gotten better…not that much better.

    • A lot of foods are just dead to me. I miss bread.
    • I weigh and log everything to .0 of a gram.
    • At the end of the day I subtract the amount of calories I’ve eaten (to 0.01 kcals) from my calorie limit and those calories are banked in the form of egg whites so that I can always get bang on my calorie limit for the day.
    • My main meal of the day has to take me over an hour to eat
    • If I have to eat something that I can’t log with certainty, or I’m bringing and purging that day, my calories for the day are halved
    • I don’t drink calories unless it’s alcohol

    You know, I hadn’t actually written out these rules until now and like…oft.

      Holy shit, this would kill me. I’m a mess when it comes to food. One day almost nothing, the other day storm of sugars, next one mostly vegetables, etc. I’ve never counted any calories and it honestly scares me, because I know I’d be fucked.
