Please Quit Using Fasting to "Punish" Yourself

im very scared of unhealthy eating habits honestly. every morning i eat 4 bacon, and 2 eggs. and i used to eat other keto friendly snacks and meals throughout the day. but recently....its become a challenge to not eat anything all day after breakfast. I realize its only like 400 calories, but after 1.5 years on keto, i dont really feel hunger the same way i used to. I am perfectly fine eating 400 calories and nothing else the rest of the day.

Im really scared of sinking into anorexia....every bite i take after breakfast feels guilty, and if i manage to eat nothing the rest of the day, i feel huge success.

this used to seem to work for me ok, but im finally at my goal weight. starting at 210, ive dropped down to 140. and i really, really, really fear to continue this cyle and turning into a skeleton, but something about it feels inherently awesome, like the most healthy thing ive ever done. Every time i look at my old "fat photos", i feel the fight or flight response kick in and try to make sure i never go back to that weight.

im starting to really struggle, i dont want to be a skeleton....and when i try to eat more now, i feel extremely sick. Im worried i might need to get professional help, and i feel dumb; because everyone warned me about how easy it is to get into "problem eating", but being formerly fat, i thought any form of dieting was better than binge eating.....boy was i wrong.
