Health & Support How to repair my severely abused metabolism? Feb 16 2009

im sry to say but at 5`8 and 130 lbs is underweight so therefore your body will definitly gain a couple of pounds for it to run properly. make sure during ur recovery to not restrict cause u can cause the metabolism to crash right down again

Hi im a recovering anorexic and i used to be the same like you. Whatever i ate didnt show on the scale. but as soon as i messed uup my metabolism well...... u should know the rest.

My suggestion to u is instead of having 3 meals a day have 6 small meals a day. You might have heard of this before but it really helps me.

For example: i have a huge breakfast to start my metabolism

       &nb sp;              then a snack\

       &nb sp;              a pretty packed lunch

       &nb sp;             a snack

       &nb sp;             a snack before dinner

       &nb sp;             and a very light dinner (like a salad)

hope this works 4 u

What do you mean by diet tea? Green tea is good for you...

But teas with a laxative effect are not. It's best to stay away from them.. they can cause some serious damage to your digestive system.

If you need some help with bowel movements, then drink a glass of prune juice on an empty stomach for breakfast once every week or so.

 thxs mimi and every1 4anwswering but where do u get prune juice???

the best advice to prevent binges r to eat good meals once u get the cycle going even if u gain weight ull be able to lose it in a healthy way. like for example today i didnt have the time 4 lunch so i had like a fruit onthego but i got soo hungry in the after noon that i binged on cereal like bad and now i feel guilty.

im a recovering anorexic , this is my 5th day eating healthy. i think what made me want to recover was the fact that life was way too hard that way and i just felt like i wanted to die. give recovery a chance, the 1st and second days r the hardest but once you get thourugh those 2 days youll feel alot better. i still have anorexia thoughts like o i need to excersise or how many calories, but im eating now.

start off slowly because many times if you start off fast youll definitly relapse.

i wish u best luck xoxo

dont let bulimia get a grasp of u because once it does it will be hard to get rid of her. purging does not really work because after u binge your stomoch already converts the food into calories be4 u can purge it out so its no use and that is the reason y u feel full even after u purge. my best suggestion for the temptation to binge is tto have snacks through out the day like a fruit every hour or so it will speed up ur metabolism and will prevent any big binges.

best luck to you

i know how u feel i felt the same way, and i sometimes still do. i keep telling my self that ill stop eating tomorrow and that ill never recover. but you can control how u act!! so even if u have alot of food u can always excersize even though u said that you dont want to over excersize but just keep up the excersize with the food. and remember to have many meals instead of separate big meals because continuous meals keep u full which is great 4 ur metabolism!!!! that way u can eat and not gain i hope some of this is gonna help!! and trust me i felt exactly what u were feeling last week!! dont let the ED control u: u control the ED

Thank you everybody with all your advice.  I talked to my mom about it again and she told me she'd help me in anyway she can, but she still didn't think that it was a good idea to have me go get help somewhere else.  Today is my 5th day without binging and purging.  When I get to urge to binge, I've been grabbing handfuls of blueberries instead of cartons of ice cream.  I'm feeling pretty good in terms of my condition, but I'm still very uncomfortable in my own skin. Recovering from bulimia while STILL trying to lose weight is going to be so hard for me, but I'm giving it my best effort. If anybody else is going through this situation, or anything similar, feel free to message me.  I spend a lot of time on this site...it's really what has kept me going these past 5 days.  And I know 5 days isn't a lot, but it's the longest I've gone in a long time.  Gotta start somewhere, right?  I'm thinking if/when I make it to day 7, I'm going to do something nice for myself.  Hopefully instead of taking it one day at a time, pretty soon I can take it one week at at time...then maybe even one month at a time.

 HOLY CRAP i am sooo proud of u!!!! i totally understand the feelings of binging and purging. im a recovering anorexic with some bulimia behaviours. i always felt that there was something missing and that food was that thing to patch up the missing place but once i started i couldnt stop and the guilt that came with this. at 1st when i didnt know how to purge i would do like 5hours of excersise to punish myself for eating so much. but later when i did purge and after purging i dont feel hungry at all and a person on this site told me that once you binge ur stomach has already took all of the calories of ur binge so even if you o purge it wouldnt really work. that is why i gained weight when i started to binge/purge. but i definitly understand they feeling of the temptation to binge and then just purge if u ever need someone to talk to ill always be there xoxo

good luck!!

Weight Gain Question about pain and weight gain, HELP! Jul 22 2008

Original Post by tinkerbellx33:

Recently i upped my calorie intake, and started to gain a little weight. I've maintained keeping these gained 4-6 pounds for about a week or a little more, but the I've also developed some bad headaches, and sore breasts. This I figrued could only be 2 things. One, the heat and my bad habit of sleeping on my stomach with a wired bra on..which i should stop doing, or Two, my period may be returning...AFTER 2 YEARS? anyone have any ideas which is probably more likely? If you've gotten your period back after anorexia, did your breasts become sore before hand?

One reason im leaning twoard it not being my period is when it came regularly, pre-ED, i never had breast pain. I also do not have stomach cramps, nor am i moody.

Help?

 

 i think they may be developing cause when ana strikes it stops all developing of puberty to keep u alive. this is ust my prediction lol dono if it is right though

hey! i am a recovering anorexic and ive been eating well for about 4-5 days now(not alot) but i want to try to helpxD. just wondering how many meals you have a day cause now i do aobut 6 meals a day and i think it really works cause my weight did not go up but im feeling soo good right now. also remeber to have your meals on time try not to mess up your bodys cycle, and finally what really helps me is to have a hughe breckfast, a snack, then i nice lunch, a snack, and a nother snack b4 dinner. but dinner i have something really light because im not really like a dinner person. so thats my suggestion but i hope this works and bravo to u for recovering!!!Laughingxoxo
