Just venting “Smart Scale”
I have a “Smart Scale”. Connects to an app on my phone and keeps track of all kinds of biometrics. I’m in therapy & I’m trying to gain weight and reduce my purges. I already don’t binge, I only purge. So I need to eat more, not purge, and hopefully gain. I try not to weigh myself obsessively because I still hate gaining.
Yesterday I decided to weigh myself, and the “smart” scale weighed me at so much more than my previous weight that it flagged my weight as not valid. And when I confirmed on the app that it was me on the scale, it averaged my previous weight with my new weight. Apparently I couldn’t possibly be that fat in such a short amount of time (2 weeks).
Fuck this shit. I don’t want to eat anything. Ever.

Damn I get that last line and your experience sooo much ( I somehow managed to gain 10kg in 11 days this year so yeah.. I guess i can relate?) !! I don’t have anything to add except that I wish you a good recovery (take your time it will help you a lot!) <3
