Original Post by sunkissedbliss:

Erica have you gained weight from all your binges? I just ate 3000 calories too and I feel bad about it because I just bought myself a size 2 dress this morning for my formal. I would hate to not fit into it 5 hours after purchasing it. :(

yep, i'm about a big-fat 115 right now, and i used to be 110. it's disgusting. i got down to 113 and was so proud of myself, but whaddaya know? BINGE.

and even right now i'm at 2000 cals 'cause it was my birthday dinner and i wanna binge so bad but i can't go over 2000 or i'm gonna get even fatter and uglier.

no offence, but that's a horrible breakfast.

for breakfast try things like egg-white omelettes, oatmeal, highfiber cereal (all bran, fiber1, and miniwheats still taste good), whole wheat bread toasted with some reduced-fat pb, etc.

no cookies PLEASE.

Health & Support lax abuse question Nov 24 2007

in summer, around the end of july i'd already had anorexia problems but when my boyfriend of 3 months dumped me i really went weight-loss-crazy and took a full bottle of laxatives over a 1.5 week period. i was at my mom's boyfriend's cottage and i'd binge, purge, take 20 metamucils all at once and.. you know, and when i got home, i was 3 lbs lighter. and believe me, that ego boost did more harm than good.

after the bottle was gone i snuck to the store and bought some liquid laxatives, but the taste was so awful i took it and instantly vomited my guts out. then i took all my mother's fiber pills, and now she hides them.

um, today i ate a bowl of all bran, a bowl of mini wheats, a BOWL of shredded cheese, a BOWL of marshmallows, tons of pretzels, parmesan cheese, apricots, cheesestrings, carrots, dry hot chocolate mix, oatmeal, milk, bread, butter, some stale fudge, a mini coffee crisp and about 1/2 jar of peanut butter and then a giant dairymilk bar. and i'm not including breakfast, lunch or dinner.

mine was about 2000 calories and probably more, i wish it was only 600. :( i think i consumed around 3500-4000 calories today. |:

relax, it could have been worse, y'know?

my breakfast usually adds up to half of my daily caloric intake, i love big breakfasts. plus, i usually eat breakfast at about 4-5 am (insomniac, don't ask) and it keeps me full until lunchtime usually (lunch is at 11:30 am).

like they say: eat like a king at breakfast, a princess at lunch, and a poor man at dinner.

i'm the opposite of hungryallweighs, i like BIG breakfasts.

i like to get fat, protein and carbs. some of my usuals are:

  • instant flavoured oatmeal (whatever kind i have on hand. right now i have cookies n' cream) made with 1/2 cup skim milk, with a piece of fruit and 1/2 cup skim milk on the side
  • plain oats mixed with yogurt with a piece of fruit on the side
  • 1 cup of all bran or fiber 1, with yogurt or skim milk and a piece of fruit

(:

i'm not sure about the rest of your questions but don't refrigerate your bread - it'll dry out.

Foods Need Calcium Nov 19 2007
22:25 (UTC)

can't you just GET more calcium?

a glass of milk? some yogurt? a slice of cheese? etc.

i buy a brand of milk called trucalcium that has 33% more calcium than the average cup of milk (40% of your DV to be exact) and it comes in skim, 1%, 2%, etc. and it is also microfiltered.

i don't know the exact amount in grams, but it should be about 15-20% of your daily caloric intake. but if your doctor wants you to up it, maybe aim for 20-25%.

if you have the cals left over, you could steam vegetables (carrots, cauliflower, broccoli, etc) and sprinkle 1 serving (30g) of shredded cheese that's low fat or made with skim milk. it melts all over the veggies, isn't TOO bad and tastes soooo good. that's definetely comfort food.

also, i'm sure on this site if you click the 'recipes' tab and type in the specific comfort food you're craving, you'll find one if not many healthy(er) alternatives and tricks so you can have your comfort food and eat it too.

i know with it getting cold out all i want is hot chocolate and cookies and mashed potatoes and mac and cheese, etc. :\

Health & Support My ongoing struggly with binging.. Nov 16 2007
05:08 (UTC)

i'm basically in the same boat as you.

i GOT to my goal weight (110) and have now bnged up to 115-116. :(

it's so hard to stop. the only trick is to not start.

when is it you binge? after dinner? when you get home afterschool?

if it's afterschool, you'll have to do what i'm trying to do - you can't eat ANYTHING. it starts out with an orange, and then BAM, you've just downed a whole pint of icecream or a whole box of crackers. drink water, chew gum, drink milk, don't eat until dinner. it works.
