Oh wow. I just posted on this a second ago. Look at my post. But yes, I am in a cry for help. I worried so much that I'm even scared to get on a scale. How much did you lose? And yes I am struggling bug time to gain it back

At my healthy weight I was 108 pounds back in 2013. I now weigh about 100-101 pounds :(

I am also afraid to get in the scale. I didn't weigh myself for about 6 months because it brought on too much anxiety.

Yup. Scared to get on a scale too. Lost 17 lbs. I look terrible. Like a skeleton. Not even my real body type.

This is awful. My appetite has been ok too. I don't really understand.

I did. I was about 116 and I am down to 98.. Trying my best to not let my nerves get the best of me..

Yes. It's very hard. The mind is very powerful and I feel like it is controlling me sometimes.

Same here, was 117, now barely 100. So tired of this. What is happening to us? 😢 I know it's constant anxiety and over thinking...loss of appetite sometimes etc. It just really bothers me. I want my life back! 😢😟

I know how you feel. Once we learn to relax and enjoy life we will be fine.
