ughh, I've come back to the cycle and feel worse than before. My dad keeps buying the food and I can't seem to leave them alone. I try to substitute the junk with healthier alternatives but I always pick the junk anyways. It's driving my crazy, I can really feel my belly fat and it feels very uncomfortable espically when I'm sitting down.There's so much fat to grab really disgusting.. |

Thanks everyone for the suggestions and support. It's day 3 now and I'm getting better. Though I'm still having massive cravings to binge I find myself that I get satified just by eating normally (meaning no junk food). The healthy food fill me up and I don't tend to exceed my calorie requirements. The only problem is getting used to this and for some reason I get very lazy and don't want to exercise now. It's weird cause on a binge day I usually have tons of energy and it somehow motivates me to exercise more, maybe it's cause of the amount of food that boosts me up somehow o_x gg80 I've asked my dad many times to stop buying those kinds of foods but he still buys them anyways. He just laughs and thinks it's normal for a teen to eat that kind of crap. But I have tried to substitute the fridge with healthier alternatives. And yes, it usually happens every time after school, I just eat and eat >_> feel like a fatty.. |

please don't do this, eating less than 1200 calories everday is very harmful for your body! I'm 16 as well and I've been down that path where I ate like you for a month and from one teen to another, it's not worth it at all. Starving yourself with the lack of calories will only make you gain back the weight faster or even more weight. If you continue with this plan any longer you may even develop an eating disorder. This is not a healthy way to live. I know it is hard to face the fact that the calories we eat will make us gain weight but the truth is you won't gain weight as long as you eat healthy-which is not 800 calories a day. Please, please don't eat less than 1200 calories, even that is too low for us since we are still growing. Good luck. |

My original goal was 100 lbs when I was 110 lbs back a few months ago and the lowest I got was 103 lbs. That didn't last very long.. =/

I agree with the above posts. Why not bake them instead, and substitute the regular greasy oil for something like pam oil. |

ohh, ouch. It's good that it healed. Nope, its just normal stairs, I have to walk up and down them one at a time. Just hope I don't break my ankle doing this through the long week. I just have one more question that I'm wondering about, how long should I let my foot rest until I can actually start to safely walk on the foot? Cause I've been hearing about not to walk on it and then don't keep it immobolized, I don't know which to follow. I tried to slowly put pressure on my foot but it's still too much pain for me to walk properly. |

wow thank you so much for your advice. It's already been a day with crutches and its pretty hard to walk around with it. I feel so bad that I'm in everybody's way and tomorrow is going to be a hard day cause I have to go up 3 flight of stairs for my first class then back down for the 2nd and then back up 2 for my third class. I really wish my school had a elevator but it's a poor school x_x. How did you mess up both your ankles? You don't have to answer that but I'm just wondering. |

gi-jane: Thank you for the advice and I usually do plan ahead of my meals it's just the binge kind of dragged me out of that habit. Today I'm following my plan so far and haven't had any slipups. I will try my best to eat at least 1800 calories. bananee: Thanks for your support. I will consider to eat at least 1800 calories and I'll try my best to eat healthy. Though my binges weren't entirely unhealthy, they weren't sweets or sugar because I don't keep many around the house, more like starchy foods (bread,whole grain cereals) whatever I could find in the kitchen that seemed appetizing at the moment. The first 2 days however I ate like half a tub of ice cream and too many store-bought cookies. It was starchy foods afterwards cause I knew it was going to cost me. Today it seems like I'm controlling, which is a start right? Thanks a bunch :) strawberry-dolly: wow, pretty similar aren't we. Well, I feel better today and hopefully this will last. I hope your the best for you as well and I know we can do it! It's going to be a hard and long process but it can be accomplished. Thank you and good luck to you. (:

thanks for your reply. But thing is that bothers me is that I keep eating even after I feel like my stomach is going to burst, I still feel the urge to eat something regardless of what it is. Today is officially a week of overeating..my jeans around my waist is starting to feel tighter and my stomach more has become more bloated. >_< Though I understand by your means of me not getting enough calories but how can I avoid overeating again. I find that when do eat healthy I usually end up eating only around 1200 calories. When I do eat over 1600 calories I become insecure and just end up ruining my day even more, how can I prevent this from happening? What foods are high in calories yet they are healthy at the same time? Sorry if this has become a little off topic.. |

Thanks everyone for the tips (: I understand that I am still too young to be worrying about these kinds of things but I just want to be a healthier person in general like matty said and I know that shedding a few pounds wouldn't hurt if i'm doing it correctly. I also do give in to the teenage treats like chocolate and ice cream once in a while but i'm not consuming enough to make it unhealthy. I think I understand more about calories and how much I should be consuming and I agree that I should be upping my calories more because everyday all I could think about is food that it's driving me crazy >_< (not that i'm starving myself or anything).

Thanks for the support I appreciate it. For work, I just package food. It's not very labourish work, more like light work to me. But what do you mean by 500 calorie deficit? I never really understood what that calorie deficit means. lol x] |
