Went to the nutritionist with D yesterday - a woman with many years experience working with anorexics. She weighed D (first time in a week and a half since all this was discovered) - she only weighs 98 lbs.
Nutritionist had D make an agreement about what she would eat - in terms of what she thought she might be able to tolerate without vomiting - for the next three days. My job is to help her control the urge to vomit. So far we have made it almost 24 hours without D vomiting - but this has required me sleeping in her room with her and spending pretty much every moment with her. She's really struggling with the obsessive thoughts, but at least she's willing to tell me about them and let me help her - I know I'm way ahead of the game compared to most people in this sitch.
I'm functioning on very little sleep, since I had to stay up past her last night, and she was having a lot of trouble falling asleep. We rented a couple of movies yesterday and watched them - without a doubt, the two worst movies I've seen in a long time. Le Divorce and Gigli - don't even bother out of curiosity's sake.
Today she has a party to attend and I guess I will have to chaperone her there - she won't like it, but those are the breaks. She's eating less than 1,000 calories a day, but the nutritionist thinks if we can break the cycle of vomiting, that's more important at this point.
My H is so distraught over all this, poor guy. I know he's relying on me to be the strong one here, and me? I'm relying on all you guys
