| That sounds healthy. You know what they say about, "Eat like a king in the morning, a prince in the afternoon, and a poor man at night." | |||

| Weight Loss | Is this at all possible? | Sep 04 2007 19:05 (UTC) |

| Yeah, I know, I'm pretty sure I could be 110 and still be in the healthy range. My scale hasn't actually hit 115 yet, but I was expecting it to that day since I'd been binging. I think the highest its been first thing in the morning this summer is 113.5. Today it was 111.5.
At rstreet: I hopefully wouldn't have to starve myself. I think if I manage to run 4 miles per day and eat 1000-1200 I can lose the weight. I already have my day planned out, and I've run the first three miles. =) And when your metabolism is naturally slower because you're lighter, you do have to eat less than that in order to go into "starvation mode". At tranimator: Thank you, I know this already. I think I'm already at the risk of all that, because I still haven't menstrated, despite the fact that when I weighed this much going DOWN I mestrated. I'm supposed to get hormones to fix that though. At enchantigimage: out of curiosity, why do you guys keep assuming I want to do this without exercise? Extreme exercise played a major part in how I lost the weight the first time. Thanks civilgradstudent! Yes, that would indeed be the plan. I feel the diciplin on the days I have self-control, but I always feel uneasy knowing that it will almost never last. I really need to stick with it long enough to lose weight. |

| Health & Support | BED-related: is it just me or does this trigger you too... =( | Sep 04 2007 03:23 (UTC) |
|
| Aw, I'm a skinny person and I used to mostly eat junk in public to show people that I do indeed eat junk. Maybe it will be less triggering if you know that some of us would have a snickers or a slice of domino's for lunch and nothing but two bags of steamed veggies for the rest of the day? | |||

| Woah primadonna9396, I got this way from anorexia too! I was hospitalized several times, but never went to a program place to feed me or anything because I wanted to "feed myself". And as soon as I got over my hug phobia of food, I started binging! Ughh, how could I go from having a 13.6 BMI to having to restrain myself from food every day! Its amazing how within months one can go from not being able to will themselves to eat to not being able to will themselves to stop. Thanks mikelane, but I actually binge on fruits and veg to and that stretches out my stomach MORE! I feel like I've tried everything... no hope, no hope.... |

| I can relate to you guys so much! I've had binging problems since I started recovering from anorexia. Its terrible! I want so bad to have control over food back. I fear that I never will again in my life. | |||

| Well obviously its not a competition, I'm mortified by this. Its shameful. Who would be proud, other than a competitive eater, of being able to eat a lot? I wish I was one of those people who could barely stomach a wedge of melon. | |||

| I don't have a BF! =(
Yeah, I'll talk to a doctor. People sometimes dont' take the COE seriously though because I'm actually underweight. Not for my age, but for an adult. |

| Well yeah, except I don't have will power. I know this sounds pathetic and stupid, but my entire life is devoted to my diet and trying not to overeat and yet I do anyways. I am not overweight, but I am gaining and I think I will be overweight within a couple years and some day obese. I feel hopeless trying to find control... any stomach shrinking plans/ways I can destract myself without having to move much? I try to run on my treadmill, but I get warm up and then job and feel pooped after five freakin' minutes. And I used to run cross country! So is there anything that will keep me away from food without much movement? Like maybe a sensual activity to replace eating. | |||
| Health & Support | My take on the "Binge Eating Disorder" | Sep 02 2007 18:57 (UTC) |

| I used to have a "very underactive thyroid" and I went on medication for I think two weeks before the doctor said it was back to normal and took me off it. I believe I still have one because I'm always cold/tired my COE is worse than EVER. | |||

| Health & Support | Splenda sickness...anyone else? | Sep 02 2007 18:52 (UTC) |

| I wonder if Splenda has contributed to my 12 pound gain this summer. But then again, I used to binge on Splenda and dwindled to an extremly low weight then. | |||

| Probably more than anyone on here. I've had points where I felt extremly sick and the food was disgusting, but I felt compulsed to keep eating it for some reason. I've had times where I've eaten a 24-servings jar of peanut butter over two days, plus milk and other stuff too. | |||
| Health & Support | Just another binging anorexic... | Sep 02 2007 18:32 (UTC) |

| I can relate completly! I've gained so much weight this summer. I eat huuuuuuuuge amounts now that I've "recovered" (not really) from my anorexia. This summer I gained 12 lbs! I hate that this happens. My plan is to isolated myself from food except for a reasonable amount of calories a day by staying in the guest house until I can "break" the addiction. That worked for my sister when she was binging. | |||

| All right. Thanks... I wish that people could understand that not everyone with COE is overweight. COE is how they became overweight in the first place. And I know that it isn't just my body's "natural calling" or anything like that, because I maintained 103 for an entire year before the CEO started in. The thing that triggered it was an attempt at weight loss. Go figure. =/ And I can't go to the eating disorder outpatient program because they said they won't ever let me in after I turned them down a million times. Oy oy oy. I s'pose I'll go to the ED support part now. |

| Weight Loss | stuck and not sure what to do :( | Sep 02 2007 18:09 (UTC) |

| When you say, "Get back to normal weight" do you mean you accidentally lost to much? If you lose a ton of weight over 4-5 days its probably mostly water weight, so don't try and gain any weight back. Just try and eat healthy and normal and focus on that and then the weigt will be back to normal. And then if you still want to lose weight try it at a time you aren't stressed so you don't undereat/overeat. It takes more than 5 days to lose 10 lbs of body fat unless you're an EXTREME athlete. | |||

| Weight Loss | how much can your weight fluctuate | Sep 02 2007 18:05 (UTC) |
4 |
| 5 lbs. I was 109 this morning, yesterday afternoon I was 114, etc. I think the main thing is how much water is stored throughout your body from sodium. You're body holds on to water when you're dehydrated, right? | |||

| Thank you coach_k. I actually know all about nutrition though, its pretty much all I focus on. My problem is that I have an eating disorder, and want desperatly to control it. Even looking at a healthy plan will not help me, because the COE is so strong on me now. I am looking for some way that I can isolate myself from food to kind of be a "healthy eating rehab" that I give myself, but I'm not sure where to turn. I used to weigh 86 lbs (really severe anorexia) and spent my freshman year of high school in and out of the hospital. I still feel the emotional/physical effects of this, and while I do see a therapist every so often I've realized that I need to take charge myself over this. I'm just about ready to give up trying self-control, so is there any other solution to avoid the deamons that are tempting food? | |||

| I'm not trying to lose "more" weight, I'm trying not to GAIN weight. I'm almost seventeed, and at the beginning of this summer I was a very slim 103 pounds. I lose all control by being home this summer, and have aquired compulsive-over eating disorder. I think its sad that someone with COE can't be taken seriously because they are not overweight yet. Would you rather I continue with my ways and then help me stop it when I'm obese? | |||

| But I don't WANT to starve myself. I want to eat a reduced calorie but healthy diet and exercise to reach 99 pounds. Can't I do that? I am giving myself until Christmas, so thats only about a pound a week. I shouldn't have to starve myself to lose a pound a week, I just NEED to stop the overeating and gain self control. | |||

| Well I haven't just grown, I've been 5'7" for over a year. I know that my goal is underweight, but I'll probably want to gain weight as soon as I get that low. The idea would be that I have self-control and the knowledge (that would make me feel comfortable) that I can weigh 99 pounds IF I so desire to. I wouldn't be any less healthy than I am now, I binge so much that I wake up in the middle of the night with the feeling of food creeping up my throat. I did last night. And no, I have never made myself throw up in effort to control my weight and I do not plan to. | |||

| I compulsively overeat and would like to gain control of my eating habits. I have overeaten every day this summer and gained 12 pounds. I feel the need to have control back, but I'm so scared that will never happen. I don't know how my eating got so out of control, but at this point I have just about no say at all as to what goes in my mouth. I'm thinking of moving into my families gues house and not keeping food in there. Do you think that will work, or will I just feel compulsed to come back to the house to binge eat again? | |||
| Weight Loss | should I let myself CHEAT on my birthday? How to prevent bingeing? | Jul 31 2007 01:04 (UTC) |

| Eh, I try to work out but not very hard. Today I went for a walk-run, but it wasn't very long. I walk most days, but for not long at all. I could try doing some form of workout the days leading up to and after the Bday, I don't think it will erase much calories or guilt though.... I always hate my birthday, ahhh. | |||
