I live with my boyfriend and his family. My boyfriend works a mixture of shifts, but his shifts are mainly during the night.
On the weekends, he can come home anywhere from 1am to 3am and be back on at 11am, depending on his shift patterns. I have an eating disorder so I like to eat with him. But we are eating when he comes back from work, and this has caused me to gain weight 😖
We wake up when we wake up. We can go to bed at 6am and wake up at 4pm. I've tried to sleep when he comes back from work, but he wakes me up or the dogs do. We also have a very unhealthy diet. We can drink up to 50 cans of soda during a single week.
I was very healthy before but I no longer exercise. I hardly eat during the day, and it's mainly when he comes home from work when we eat. His family don't have set meal times and randomly cooks food for us sometimes and other times they don't cook so its hard
My eating disorder is called bulimia, its where I eat loads of food and make myself throw up on purpose. Even though I haven't done this in a few weeks, the years I have done it, it has f up my metabolism.
I'm just looking for some advice on how to eat without my boyfriend being here. Cutting out all sugar won't help, but I will slowly reduce it. Also, I need more energy before I start doing more exercise, and I'm not looking for diets. I'm trying to recover in a healthy way, I don't want to be dangerously thun again.
I can't do much about my sleeping pattern, and nome of his family will help. I also no longer speak to my family, and I have no friends. So, cut back on alcohol, sugar, soda, etc. Any more recommendations, please?
How do you start being healthier?
