| hey, meg! I've been struggling with anorexia too for about three years now, it's tough, but it's defetly worth getting over. At first it might seem relaly scary, but I knwo you can do it. I was kdian in big trouble with my weight for a while, but I pulled out adn gained back the 25 lbs. Basicly, idk, I was kdain on my own for this one. at first you'll probbaly feel prone to binging, adn it's only natural concidering you denied yoruself for so long, I msut have binged for nearly a month. the only way to prevent this is to chill out. the more you worry, the more you'll eat. I woudl suggest eating smartly untill like 6 pm, then having something you feel safe about adn uppign the calories slowly, that way you dont' panic. also talk to your mom about seeing someone, it really helps. best of luck with this. let yoru love of soccer motivate you to stay healthy! | |||
| Weight Loss | How fast do you lose weight on your plan? | Jun 22 2006 02:45 (UTC) |

| it's because muscle wieghs more then fat. you probbaly lost like 15 lbs of fat and gained 8 of muslce. not even kidding. leik I usualy weigh 123, but when I do track/xc I gain 6 lbs. it's all muscle I sware. now you might think, well screw muscle, but with more muscle you'll have a faster metabolism and burn fat more easily. for a good runner the really good inshape, thin looking wieght for someone liek 5'7 is 150ish. for an out of shape person it would be less. trust me, it works. PLUS, dont' alwasy look at the scale to guage your progress, look at how you look and feel in cloths and in the mirror. measurements also help! good luck with the exercise!

| 9 lbvs a month is too much?! thats' news to me. I'm like slightly underweight, and if I even eat like 1200 cals a day I'd loose at least 13ish lbs a month, maybe more...... i gues ti varies for the individual | |||
| Weight Loss | Starvation Mode... how to escape? | Jun 22 2006 02:33 (UTC) |

| ok, what you were saygin about fat gogin last/ other stuff.... well I usaed to be anorexic. I exercized alto and ate leik the person above was eating. the only medicval probelm I have now is that my shins are crap, as in I get stress fractures alot (I didnt' haev any calcium for a logn time). but, so you think I was takign stuff away form my organs any way, and that I jsut recovered soon enough to not have the damage be perminent? cause liek at my lightest, I relaly had hardley any fat, i was 110 and I'm 5'8. dont' worry I wiegh alot more now, but jsut curious, do you think the exercize made me burn the fat, or do you think I did do inside damge, and that the fat came off after the inner stuff was shot?

| Weight Loss | splenda - yay or nay? | May 31 2006 23:35 (UTC) |
|
| hey guys, this is FUNNY! I use splenda plenty, but this is great. gues how they invented it? they were testing pestacide and the scientist todl his helper to "test" the chemicle, well the guy thought he said "taste" so he tasted it and it was sweet. NO joke, lol. then the guy put some in his tea and is reminded, "you knwo that stuff might be toxic" he replys, "eh, we'll live" (got this from an article on the history of artificial sweetneers in the New Yorker, you can go to their web site to read it, it's interesting)

| katheryn this is SERIOUS stuff. I have been suffering from anorexia/belimia for about three years now, it's not fun. If you are makgin yoruself puek at all, you haev a probelm, and I'm beggign you to go see someone befroe it gets out fo controle. At first I jsut deited, but then when I'd mess up, I'd puke. at first it was once a week, then twice, now, befroe Iknew it, I find myself dogin it three tiems a day. It's no way to live. it's so unhealthy. PLease get help early, ti makes it so much easier later. Good luck, adn feel free to contact me.

| Weight Loss | Diet Pills? Has anyone had any luck? | Mar 03 2006 01:47 (UTC) |

| WOH! I really dont' think diet pills are a good idea! not at all. first of all they have many BAD BAD side affects including: hair loss, msucle loss, bone density loss, stroke, heart attack, and perminent heart damage. I think it's a really bad idea. Half dont' work and the other half coudl kill you. I think it's worth a little more disaplin to avoid the risks.

| Foods | fiber one: what you might not know | Mar 03 2006 01:30 (UTC) |

| yeah, sorry I ment one half cup of fiber one has over 50% so, yeah, really easy to over dose. and it's really hard on yoru stomic, I mean, yeah, tis' good, but eat 1.5 cups a day and your hurtign yourself badly.

| jeep.... please do not use the terms "ana" and "mia" I fin dthem insulting. I have alreday told you taht I have been diegnosed with an eatgin disoredr, namely anorexia in the past. I am not deneying this. But I have recently come to discuver taht I do not want to go down that path again. I want to loose wieght healthily, by eating good foods, and not starvign myself. I coudl easily just stop eatign and taht woudl do the trick, but I dont' wnat to do taht again, I was misserable. No, you dont' understand what I am goign through, I'm sorry, but even if you sisters went through it, you dont' understand. I knwop my parenst don't. THey asume the same thinga s you that I do thses things for attention. but it's abotu me, not them or you. oh,a dn abtou yoru wieght. I'm sure you look great, I think 160 is a perfectly aok wieght for someone my hight, but for me, the way I am built it doesnt' look good. it;s abtou hwo I feel at that weight. and I waqt to loose it healthily this time. | |||

| I'm sorry I've upset you. I dont' think you understand what I'm gpoign through, but I probably dont' understand everythgin abotu you either. Again, I'm osrry to haev taken up space and wasted peopel time. I just feel thsi real horror at myself, and mybe you dont' understand that and thats' perfectly ok. thank you for your commments any way, I'd just prefer you were a little bit kinder in how you react, I'm not tryign to infringe on any one, I'm just trying to feel better abtou mysefl by dieting, I will not post heer any more, if I am upsettign peopel.

| that sounds leik a good idea, I do somethgin kinda leik that. I start the week witha one day fast, then eat 100 then 200, then 300, all the way up to 600 (plus one special treat) then I repete. THsi makes your body think your eatign more and more, plus it's easier to resist food because you knwo you're gettign more the next day, and it seems liek alot. YOu can do thsi with any amount, leik eat 1200 one day 1400 the next and 1600 the next depending on how much you wnat to eat. but always let yoru self have a special treat befroe repeating.

| ok, well guys thanks for your concern I do apreciate it alot, and it's very kind. But I do alot and I mean ALOT of exercise already. I do 600 sit ups, 200 push ups, a weight lifting riutien, and am a runner. and I still have love handles. I really liked how I looked at 111, but 115 woudl be fine. epsolutly fine. I actually used to be belimic, btu I'm nto any more, and thats; really good. I havent' thrown up in abtou a month and a half. I just want to look good for myself again. I dont' knwo how to explain it, it's npot liek I'm like, "oh, I want to be thin" it's the worst possibel feelign in the world and it makes me hate myself more then anything. Manymany nights I sit crygin becvause of all the wieght I have, and I just wnat to be able to love myself again. thank you though, as a lways I apreciete your care.
