These are the truths for me:

Fruit salad gets my stomach back on track, I will be hungry instantly.

Another is tons of water, that was all I was drinking for two months and I def gained weight.

Avocados Avocados Avocados!!!! I could eat 5 at once they never fill be up and they are sooo high cal.

Nuts= addictive= high cal

Profit share ( let it go and drag it through a crowd of people HAHA) There is only one situation where they will know it is you: If you are the only one on the elevator and you let one slide, if the elevator stops and someone gets on you may be framed. Seriously tho, I have had a similar issue lately especially if i eat avocado. I would just learn to laugh about it, I think it comes with gaining weight

I understand why doing some exercises would not be beneficial, especially for someone who has ed. I do not suffer from ed, but from an abnormal metabolism. Strength training sounds like a great idea, with cardio I would be worried that I would lose what I worked on. Thank you both for the advice!

Weight Gain tierd after lunch.. Jun 02 2008

Thanks for all of your help. I think i am going to try to eat smaller meals a day. although this seems like such a difficult task, especially because if i eat a snack before lunch i may not be hungry to eat more later, especially because i am always running around at work at school etc. I def think that i need to try that anyway because i may progess in my gaining weight plan

People do the same thing to me where i work. I work at an inner city hospital with a lot of ignorant people. Many of the people i work with has asked if i was anorexic. One day i looked at this woman and said, you dont even know my name. After that she straightened out. Another time i screamed at this lady for asking if i ate. I am so tierd of this **** because when you look different then everyone else they judge you. For me i was always skinny and dealing with these comments have always been difficult. When i was younger my mom would constantly be snearing at people for looking at me. Every day someone says something to me. I dont care what anyone says it is difficult being skinny. I think often even more so then being a little fat, because then atleast you are normal. Atleast in this country.

Weight Gain still need to gain 15 pounds...help! May 28 2008

hm. I would say that you should drink liquids that are high in calories. Make some shakes and load them up with protein, maybe even buy the protein stuff from the health store to mix in there. Do not stress youself out about this week persay, then you may get worse. Relax a little, and eat what you can throughout the rest of the week. Next week remember that there is a reward to win those two pounds. The reward is that you will have succeeded, this will boost your confidence as well as your weight. Do not forget that you need to do this to play sports again. Good luck!

I am new to this site, here is my story.

I am from philadelphia, pa. One of the cities where most people are overweight. Due to this fact people stare, laugh, point, call me anorexic, make throwing up noises when they see me etc. This had torn apart the way i have seen myself. I have been this way since the first grade (now i am 22) and have only gotten taller. I weigh 113 and stand at 5'8". Currently i am taking a psychology class at temple u, i am afraid to go in the class the day we talk about anorexia, I know that someone whill say something to me. When i was little i worked in oc new jersey, and this man came up to me and was forcing me to take this card that was targeting teens with easting disorders. I screamed at him, but he said :I know them when i see them: Everyday i mind my own business, but it just wont quiet.
