OMAD or two if I'm really feeling bad. No snacks except liquids (tea, diet soda, etc).

No food after 5 pm (idk where that number comes from), but I'm tempted to back it up to 3 pm.

Weigh ONCE per day (I'm bad at this).
 
Weigh in once a week (Sundays)
Minimum 1 litre of water a day
Minimum 10'000 steps a day
No food until after 1pm

Not allowed to eat until I've fasted 20 hrs minimum.
Only liquid calls until dinner -minimize bloat and try to stay hydrated..
Always be doing something- NEVER sitting still. I now fall asleep tapping my foot even.
Lying. Promised I wouldn't do it again. But as I get deeper into this relapse, I'm now having to lie to get by with my rules.. living with my spouse, he knows ... But thinks I'm working on 'weight restoring'..

I can’t finish everything in front of me. So like, if I have a bowl of soup for dinner I cannot finish it. Even if I leave only one bite, I cannot eat the whole bowl. It makes no sense, it’s wasteful, but it’s what the brain says goes. I don’t question the brain…it says “do this” I say “will do” 🤷‍♀️
 
Not eating before 2pm, no idea why it's that time in particular but it's a rule🙈
I have something similar. When I was struggling in 2022, my first meal was only after 1-2pm. Now, since Feb this year till Sept I was kinda in recovery (6 months, woah, didn expect it from myself), and I feel the rule of "no food before 10-11am" creeping up on me again

My new rule is I backed the no food after 5 pm up to 3 pm and now I'm non-functional at night because I'm so tired and hungry. It's awesome.

can't eat more than 700 cals no matter what (I do not exercise much and hate running so I have to keep it low. most days I eat less) and if do for some reason I have to fast the next day.
also for some reason my brain decided I'm not allowed to eat anything before 6 pm. I don't even know if it's the anorexia or I'm just a freak lol
 
drink water:
-before i eat a meal
-after i eat anything (even a candy or an energy drink)
-after i go pee
-after i vaped
i've been drinking about 5L a day this way, since i go to the bathroom all the fucking time. it's a vicious cycle
 
I have to take medication in the morning with food. My breakfast must always be a coffee protein shake. I have a rule of <60g of protein per day, and that gets me halfway there.
I also have my meals in front of people. If no one's around, I'm not eating. Helps keep people who know my history from getting worried and prevents me from binging while alone. Plus it makes planning for fasts easier
