I have a long (mental) list of foods I dislike but have never actually tried. This week, I have to try one of those every day. Today, it was shrimp.
I have discovered that I do NOT dislike shrimp. I fucking hate shrimp.
The problem with trying new foods in treatment is that if you hate it, you still have to finish it. Not only do I hate shrimp, eating it made me physically gag and nearly vomit on the table.
I could have just not eaten it and boosted, but that would have meant going down a level and I finally made it to level 3 (the top level at my treatment center).
On my thought log for wrap-up, I put that my post-meal intention is to write hate letters to shrimp. Also that I want to stab shrimp in the face.

Really, less shrimp ought to be consumed. I am so sorry for your ordeal. Abstaining from shrimp is good for the environment. I wish I could do it. Every day that you don’t eat it, is a day you save the earth. You are a hero!

Go vegetarian…that way you don’t have to eat sea cockroaches or animal carcasses ever again.

I was vegetarian for years, but my dietician made me stop.

Ah…I have had a few ED specialists try to get me to give up vegetarianism. I don’t think they understand that although a lot of people with ED go vegan/veggie to cut out food, I did it because of my love of animals. I think that is different than just to give up calories so I have stood my ground and refused to go back.

They made me because I’ve been anemic for the last year and iron supplements aren’t helping.
