Original Post by rosieblue:

Strong and healthy feels better than skinny.

 Can you believe that I totally thought feeling skinny was the best feeling in the world but that now I strongly support this statement? I totally changed my mind! I feel sad for those who think otherwise now. Because skinny is socially unatractive. And now I feel social!

Just because I needed to express my happiness and make others believe in this!

Thank you for your reply and comment!

 

One of the reasons I think I have overcome my ED because my problem wasn't really being thin, but eating healthy. I always ate healthily, and I prefer fruits and veggies to meat and sweets. I am also very curious and want to learn lots about lots of stuff, so I started doing lots of research on food and health. This led me to some kind of obsession for being healthy.

 

I've been recovering for a year - I'm not in the beggining of the process. There was a time when I started to force myself to eat sweets. I love ice-cream, so it was not really hard, but I still felt guilty after I ate them, because they are so high in sat fat, and because I ate them everyday, so I started forcing myself to eat whole snickers bars (which I also like, but I could only eat miniature size and still felt like it was too much) and stuff like that.

After that, I was able to eat a whole bar of snickers and feel I wanted another. My stomach wasn't full so easily, which was great, because that was one of the things I struggled against last December.

 

I can eat like a normal person now, without thinking too much about what I'm eating and only listeining to hear my body. I want to believe this so please don't tell me I have an ED (as you say, what others say and do always affect me - my boyfriend had huge impact in my recovery because we fought so much one vacation week that was supposed to be great and ended up being full of arguments about my weight and so on).

 

Also I started to have to force me to log my food once in a while, to check if I was eating enough calories.

There are days when I feel like I haven't eat enought calories that I even get scared (will I develop another ED? xD) that my efforts for the whole week were spoiled.

I really eat to gain. I commit myself to eat each day a little more, to make a more full plate of food, to eat more caloric foods. I even searched the supermarkets for high calorie, nutrient dense and balanced macronutrient snacks.

 

I feel happier each day, and I feel chubbier.

I stopped exercising, even push-ups, which I always did because I played the flute and didn't want to lose muscle. I don't feel bad looking at myself and seeing I'm getting a little flabbier, I just think that I can work that out later.

My favorite pants are now tight and I think it is a shame I'll probably have to throw them away, but I'm not that sad, because they still fit me and I look better in them now.

My relationships got SO MUCH BETTER I'm so happy I'm doing this.

Eating crap stuff days and days in a row doesn't freak me to death anymore (that vacation week helped SO MUCH!).

And I could go on with the list of improvements I made on my own. I like to believe in myself, to trust myself, that is the most important thing in my life, and I believe I can do this with my family, friends and of course, and maybe most of all, boyfriend support.

 

I'm freshman now, and I stopped caring that I'll eat soo much crap at dinners, I started looking at others and the importance they gave to it and I stopped worrying so much.

I still want to eat healthily, so I recently changed my high calorie crap food intake (as ice-cream, chocolate, cookies, cake, sweets, breakfast cereal, etc.) to healthy alternatives (lots of bread, specially wholewheat, unsweetened breakfast cereal, more rice and pasta and potatos at meals, more meat and fish, that I always ate too little during my whole life, more milk at breakfast, healthier snacks, etc.).

 

Sorry, I really like to talk to much :$ but I feel happy with my progress and just wanted to share my thoughts, hoping that maybe they'll help someone, or maybe I just need some encouragement.

 

P.S.: I don't really think I look better thin. I don't. Everybody gets freaked out at me, people look at me as I'm an alien, as I'm too skinny to be touch, people insult me, etc. I may think that the weight some people (like my boyfriend) want me to have isn't a considerate goal (we says I should weight more than 60, which I never had and don't believe is healthy neither). But I think that being in the middle is more beautifull, and I'm enthusiasmed to find my perfect shape now I'm gaining!

Be calm. First.

 

TRUST ME: You won't be happy if your life follows like that. I'm speaking for my personal experience. Stop caring so much about food for a moment. I found that difficult some months ago, but I got over it myself. You have your whole like in front of you! Do you want to spend it thinking about how much are you eating or do you want to have real experiences with friends and family you can later remember?? Enjoy your life! You will never be 13 again, your body will never be so able to get rid of all the bad stuff you eat or able to get fit so fast! And you will never be young again, with the power to enjoy all the great teen stuff!

I think you have to have LOTS OF willpower to overcome this alone, so I think you should talk to a doctor in first place :)

 

About being scared to be fat:

Think with me... This is how I think now. You can eat very little, can't you? You got to that weight, didn't you? It was a challenge, and it still is, isn't it?

Why not changing the challenge to this:

- I will eat more to be more healthy (I'm a skinny freshman and my boyfriend dreads me to death because talking about me not being able to have children and being too fragile and too weak to go on a trip because he makes me fear that he dumps me :S!);

- I will eat more to be curvy and good looking (guys love it, believe it!);

- I will eat more because I need to gain weight, and if don't like what I see in the mirror when I finish weight gain I can always get back (but believe me, the results won't disappoint you if you follow a doctor's plan!);

- I will eat more as a challenge to my limits, as it was eating less (think of it. I find it amusing to eat as much as I want from anything while my friends cry over it because they are all dieting, I find it amusing to eat a whole plate of food at a restaurant and finding a big smile on my boyfriends lips);

- See weight gain as a good think (this is so hard for someone in your situation, but this is the most important. I struggled to gain weight. It was really dreadfull: my boyfriend and I argued over it for a week while I was home alone for one week, so instead of spending quality time with him with my parents away from home I had fights - which we never had before and we are almost 10 months! - over my health and me being too skinny, and so on!! Believe me you don't want this!!) Now I look at each pound gained as a gift!! Try looking at being a little more heavy as a goal, I now it is hard, but you need to try!

- Add some more good reasons to gain weight.

Trust yourself. If you were able to get thin, you are able to get more heavy and thin again. Give weight gain a try. Send your fears away. Most things in life, such as weight gain and becoming fat/gaining fat are reversible, specially in you age! And if you go to the doctor you'll be presentend with some plan, adapted to your lifestyle (like eating/exercising plan) that will make sure you get satisfied with the final results!

 

You are talking to someone who suffered much through a pseudo-ED and almost lost friends and boyfriend and that watched her family (parents and brothers) become so agressive with one anothers (and they still are, which makes me sad) because of a stupid ED. My home is not the same anymore, but we are getting over it. My boyfriend and I are getting over it (even if he is SO THIN and eats so little that he makes me feel bad gaining and eating more than him!). My friends are not looking to me so much as the girl who didn't eat or the girl who only ate apples, or something.

 

You need to be happy. And happiness is not compatible with ED. Believe me.

Hard pick between Chocolate Devotion, Banana Caramel Crunch, Coffee Lovers Only and the Founder's Favorite. It would depend on my mood and on the weather (I actually like ice-cream better when it's cold outside!, specially the heavy ones :P). But I think the last one is promising :P lool!

Karozel is right, the grades are an average of your food's grades. Don't bother too much about it: you would get an A if you ate oranges all day long, but that doesn't mean you're eating healthy!

For you caloric intake, your levels are quite fine, even your pie percentages (your fat intake goes over the 30%, but that's not dramatic!)! Good job!

If you want to lose weight I think it's perfectly sane to go from 130 to 120. 120 is not a unhealthy weight for your 5'5".

 

The best thing for you to do is to eat a wide variety of foods and healthy ones, but in small portions. Try eating other fruits (like apples, peaches, nectarines, pears).

 

Protein ideas: Light Yoghurt and skimmed or semi-skimmed milk (protein, calcium and some also have added vitamins, low cal, you only have to watch for the sugar... you don't really need the fat in dairy products), fatty fish like mackerel, salmon, grouper (also have lots of healthy fats), beans (they don't have a lot of calories, are so healthy and they go along with so many things as side dish! protein, low in sugar, complex carbs and fiber), lean meat, eggs (I wouldn't eat one each day but one each week - eggs are not that common for breakfast around my country!). Proteins are very important while we are growing up.

Fat ideas: fat is also important, but keep under control saturated and trans fat (specially if you have high blood pressure!) use olive oil while cooking, the fatty fish are good choices, nuts are also good...

Carb ideas: while I was losing weight, my main source of calories were carbs. They always have been, in fact, and still are. Don't eat the same carbs all day: potatoes, rice, beans, peas, chickpeas are also healthy foods! I think you should also eat more veggies (and variety), because they have so many vitamins and are so low cal you don't have to bother.

 

While losing, I would eat something like (limiting fruit to 3/4 servings a day!):

Breakfast: one cup skimmed milk, 1/2 - 3/4 cup breakfast cereal (I like Special K), and sometimes a piece of fruit - around 250 cal

Snack: a pack of "Maria" cookies (portugal only, sorry), but any other quality carb idea (like wholebread maybe) will do, sometimes yoghurt, sometimes a piece of fruit - around 100 cal

Lunch: one serving or sometimes two of carbs (1/2 cup rice, 1/2 cup pasta, one not very big potato; 3/4 cup beans or peas or chickpeas); some lean meat or fish or an egg; lots of salad (lettuce, tomato, cucumber, onion, pepper, carrot, etc, etc.) or boiled vegetables (green beans, cabbage, spinach, broccolli, carrot...). A piece of fruit for dessert. - you can make it 600-500-400 cal by adapting portions.

Snack: light yoghurt or a cup of skimmed milk and one slice of bread or 1/2 cup breakfast cereal and sometimes a piece of fruit, you can add nuts or peanut butter or someting to the bread if you want - you can make it 150-250 cal

Dinner: pretty like lunch, but I would eat soup and a lighter meal sometimes, or smaller portions.

Snack: a cup of skimmed milk or a light yoghurt and someting like fruit, bread, "Maria" cookies, breakfast cereal, dark chocolate, whatever I'ld feel like but in an adequate portion - you can make it 100 or 200 cal

 

This way you can eat between 1400 to 1800 (whichever you find that best suits you for losing). I wasn't counting the way I should, but I believe I was on 1600 losing at a moderate rate.

 

Hope it helps!

I totally had your problem!

 

It is very difficult to accept that you need to gain. Try to look at healthy weight gain as a challenge, like it was losing weight. I still feel like I was better when I had less 3 kg, but my BMI hasn't yet reached 18!... I was like 16/17!

You won't feel like you're doing the right thing at first. But think about it... Your body really needs more. Not having your period is a serious issue... and being thin is also affecting your bones and overall health.

I suggest you do a lot of research on the issue (there's plenty of information on the internet! Beware: some of it is not very accurate...!) Do more toning/resistance exercise, less cardio, keep eating healthy (but more!) and don't feel afraid. You'll probably take a while to gain weight (I've been struggling to, but I also felt better when I had less 3 kg than I have now), you'll have to work hard.

oh, I forgot Apple Pie and Berry (any of them!) Pie (my father's again, or maybe Coppenrath & Wiesen Pies could do it too).

I also forgot caramel/chocolate/banana stuff (like a pudding-like cake that I make in a deep dish)

and "Tripa com chocolate" from "Zé da Tripa" (something you can only try - from what I know - at Aveiro, Portugal) - although one is enough. It's something like a chocolate crepe, but better ;) I also love my father's pancakes or crepes folded with a piece of chocolate inside so it melts! That's really good!

Funny thread!

 

I'm not really trying to lose weight, but for me eating healthy is feeling really good!

On the other hand, there are some "unhealthy" things that I always make me feel as I want a little more, even when eating more and more is making me sick - some of those make me feel like that, some others never do. I limit the my intakes of that kind of stuff, specially because I don't always have them around, so there's no need to feel sad not to eat them.

 

- Coppenrath & Wiesen's Cheesecake - my father always complain about the size of the slice I take (as thin as I can cut), but that's the way I like it. Anyway, sometimes I end up eating almost 1/4 of the pie (thin slice by thin slice), and if I kept eating I would never get sick of it!

 

- The "so artificial but so good" Chocolate Cake that's made by a bakery near my town with some condensed milk frosting in the middle and covered by darkest chocolate glaze or some other flavourful frosting (the cake is so strong that the frosting never takes it's place in flavour) - sometimes it surprisingly appears at parties and then it's the only cake I really want to eat :P It's so addictive (Yet it makes you feel sick after one big slice, because of it's strong flavour);

 

- Melt chocolate, specially if it was melt with milk - "how many spoons are left in the fondue's bowl?"

 

- A really good lasagna (by me or my father), a really good calzone (spinach and ricotta or some other good cheese), a really good chili con carne (made by my father), a really good fish rice (also made by my father, or by me), but they aren't that "unhealthy" most of the time! I also love burritos and greek-style pita, but they are also made by me or my father and they are as healthy as they can be...!

 

- "Broa de passas e nozes" - traditional portuguese thing - a kind of "bread" that's made with corn flour, amongst with rye and wheat, and has raisins and nuts (great one, bought at a bakery nearby!);

 

 

- There are some more (I can't remember now!), but I really believe that thin feels better than any food tastes, and I found the tastier foods in "healthy" ones :P my number one vice is fruit! One of the things I use to crave eating is a really good black bean side dish (that's as simple as canned black bean warmed up with garlic and maybe some spices, sometimes a little olive oil) that goes so good with picanha (brazillian-style beef) and I don't really like fried stuff or fatty things such as mayonnaise or whipping cream, so I don't really have "a challenge out there"...!

That's funny, I guess that it happened the opposite to me LOL

My boyfriend is really thin and I was not thin (I had a slim body, but not that thin!) and I think he was, somehow, one of the reasons I lost weight during the past year! And now he's always trying to get me to eat more and gain weight because he thinks I eat too little and I am too skinny, but I don't really know who eats less and who is skinnier...!

 

Maybe you should just talk with him again. Make him understand that it's about health. If he doesn't hear you then maybe he's not as good as boyfriend as he seems.

 

Anyway, you shouldn't let yourself surrender to him that way. If you really want to do something then do it, don't let him get you blind. Always be truth to your beliefs!

sorry, but there must be something wrong... I eat as much carbs as you do, 50% of the protein you do and 20% of the fat and my daily calorie intake is somewhere around 2000 cals... It sounds impossible that you eat 134 grams of fat, along with other stuff, because just that amount of fat would make your daily calorie intake higher than the one you say you have. I just found that weird...

I wished it before and when it really happened (due to being underweight) it was awful! You start becoming a man! It's not something you'ld like!

Your period is what makes hormonal levels ok in your body. They make you look like and act like you are normal. Hormonal changes would affect you as much as pills, and you'ld probably have to take pills till the end of your life to balance your hormonal levels...

Hi! Something like that happened to me too.

Check if you are not cutting calories somewhere else. I, for instance, kept sizing down my servings so I could fit calorie dense foods once in a while, and in less than 2 weeks I lost 2 kg without noticing!

You also have to be really committed to weight gain and try to eat healthy foods (that's only my suggestion). It's easier for someone with psycological troubles about food (like myself!) to increase calorie intake by eating things they feel that are healthy, and that also helps avoiding cutting calories somewhere else (like on healthy meals!...). I also suggest you start increasing serving sizes - I had to do that and I'm kind of glad I did. Spot what you are eating too little of (for instance, I was eating so little meat and my potatoes/rice/pasta servings had become minimal!) and try to eat a little more ;)

Hope it helps!

also, if your calorie intake is really low, and this is particulary significant if your meals are far apart, your brain will tell your body to store up these calories under the form of fat - that's a primitive condition we human beings have, since our ancestors went through long periods without food...

5 weeks is little time. So it's normal that your body shape hasn't changed much. Keep up the good work and probably results will appear. If not, maybe you should consider some other kind of exercise. My cousin lost more than 10 kg in a couple months and body fat only disappeared when she entered dance classes, even though she had been doing weight lifting and so till then. Everyone is different, you just have to find what kind of exercise suits you.

Don't worry about it. Are you overweight? If not, and if you have been eating that marinade and are healty, you shouldn't stress over it. Eating also needs to be pleasant. And it's the fatty french fries and dressing-soaken salads people eat with the meat that make the difference. If you need to, I suggest you try reducing fat intake somewhere else ;)

Hello fiji_water!

I know what you're talking about - I've been through that kind of problem also, and I though I was doing just fine.

I never had a major eating problem, but during the past year I almost went anorexic. I lost 10 kg since January till December. By the end of the year I was feeling super: as skinny as Keira Knightley, always ready to run the marathon, being able to exercise as I never had been, and on top of that, I didn't need to do any effort to be thin: I was eating everything I wanted!

But the problem was... what everything?

I was eating lots of veggies and lots of fruits. My meat intake was really low. I kept reducing my potatoes/rice/pasta servings. I never cut on dairy products, but I only consumed yoghurt and skimmed milk. Just the thought of butter, french fries and whipping cream used to (and still do) make me sick. I ate till i feel satisfied - which was each time less.

My parents were really worried. I went to the doctor and I found out I had really low iron levels. I later found out I had ovarian cysts. And I knew that being like that was making me sick. But I loved it!

That may seem stupid, but that was how I felt. Fortunately, when I was in your situation, I had a very strict dad (that I never had seen like that) that almost forced me to eat. I felt sick for weeks, always feeling like I had overeaten, always feeling like my stomach couldn't digest all the food. But now I've gained 4 kg and I eat more normally without feeling sick.

 

What should you do?

First, you have to really be willing to change your diet.

If I were you, and believe me, it really annoyed me hearing people saying that, but it's the truth, I would go to the doctor first. Being underweight can carry lots of diseases (it can even warm your bones). And you may need to take mineral pills, or something, if you have abnormal mineral levels. A doctor (a nutricionist, in particular) can also help you better than me, because he or she will know how to diagnose you better than me.

Anyway, I suggest you started thinking that it's everything in your mind. If you think you can, you can. Try new foods. Start a new hobbie: be a recipe collector (beware - it can become addictive - I am an addict lool!). Try to find out what foods you like most besides fruits and veggies. Google images its helpful if you're trying to find what appeals to you the most!

Eat less fruit: it can make you very sick, since it has lots and lots of sugar. Too much sugar can really kill you. Fruit is also somewhat acidic, and that is not good for you health either.

I wouldn't add more sugar to your diet, either, since it is already (naturally) quite sugary. It's more important to add up some complex-carbs and protein and even some fat.

Find something you like. Do some research, try new recipes, try new restaurants.

Try to eat each time more, not less. If you are underweight, this is important.

 

I know you can't stand most other foods, but try to make a list of flavours you like.Don't you like ice-cream, cookies or cake? It is not unhealthy to eat some sweets from time to time! Meat and fish make you sick? Try new recipes, like meat with applesauce or sliced, broiled with mixed vegetables.

If you told me what you like most and less (besides fruits and veggies) I could give you some ideas to google ;)!

Do some research. About being underweight, about eating too much fruit, about balanced diets. It's always good to know more, and here is a good chance to learn and take benefit from learning.

At last, if nothing works, you may have to consider to learn to like some foods, for your health. And that means eating them till you like them, unfortunately.

But don't stress. Don't become obsessive. It's important that you change your diet, but keep in mind that it takes time. Smile to life and things will be fine.

 

Hope it helps! :)
