thank you. My mother actually talked to me twice about it. She asked me straight out if I had bulimia and I said no. I just didn't want her to worry because I thought I could deal with it and recover on my own but it keeps getting worse. I went from binging and purging once in a while to once a week, then every other day, and now I am doing it every single day. Maybe I will talk to her. I know she will be supportive because she's offered to get me help a couple of times before and I said I didn't need it.  Anyways thank you so much for the support and the luck. I really need it. 

hi ratmammy! how are you? believe me I really wish I had YOUR problems lol. my stomach looks alright, but I HATE how my arms and legs look so much I NEVER wear shorts and I hardly ever go out in public without some sort of jacket. I've gotten better at that as of lately but still there are days where it will be 80 something degrees and i will wear long sleaves if im feeling fat.

The only thing I do for my stomach is crunches on my ablounge. I do like a minimum of 50 max 100 everyday. I also eat pretty healthy most of the time. except for my binges =( which I have heard that diet has a lot to do with your stomach and getting it toned. I do exercise a lot but mostly just aerobic exercise and some weightlifting. I try to get to the gym once a week but usually i dont make it. I think my arms are looking better, but I would give anything to have thin stick arms . =(

yes, I'm being for real, no I'm not 13 I'm 22, and no I'm not bulimic

Well I won't do it anymore if you get just as many calories as eating

Somebody on here said that if you chew and spit your food you still consume most of the calories but with none of the nutrition, does anybody know if that's true, that you get calories just from chewing food. Thanks and sorry if its kind of a gross question but I'd really like to know.

Why would you really like to know?

Try to do something that you enjoy to relax and de-stress. Don't worry about burning off the calories, try to get your mind off of food and weight and calories and just try to take care of yourself. Definitely drink water, I tend to feel so thirsty afterwards and the next morning! It also helps (maybe later) to think about what was going on and what prompted the bingeing. It might take a day or so to feel back to normal, so focus on doing healthy things like your normal exercise, and eating foods that will be good for you. Stay away from starving or over-exercising to try to "make up for" the binge.

I thought about what you said, to think about what was going on and prompted the binge, and it seems like I binge whenever I have something important going on the next day. I know that sounds weird but like, tomorrow is my bf's birthday and I'm taking him out to dinner and the movies and stuff and I want so badly to look good and to look thin. Maybe I binge and sabotage my diet just cause I'm putting too much pressure on myself... ya think?
