I'm amazed someone has 3 - 6 hours a day to exercise.
Not really that hard to workout that much. Really easy actually. Just takes dedication.
lol..."grownups" rarely get 3-6 hours a day to do anything if they work full time.0 -
I agree with the rest. no matter what even if you were to starve yourself (under 1200) a day or under your bmi you would still lose and that's without all the exercise your claiming you doing ? So there is no way you are exceriseing that much unless you are a athlete by profession lol because even if you were to starve you would still lose weight not a good choice but youd still lose weight , although doctors like to say that if you don't eat your body goes into starvation mode and hold onto fat,ya it does but you still get tiny, that's how anorexia comes into play. sooo you have to log everything,cheese slice the tablespoon of milk in your tea, breastfeeding, a pinch of salt. my advice is no salt or sugars and no breads ! you save a lot of space without.goodluck0

ill also add....I just looked at your pics and you are very skinny ?? so the weight is your height and mucle tone, you really do look like your not eating enough,starting to look sick looking,with all honesty.0

Austeena - did you read my post?
Did you read all the other posts regarding your logging being wrong?
I don't want to believe you are just ignoring the information you don't want to hear - but because you are replying to other random posts, or posts that are asking about what your exercise routine is, I have a feeling that maybe this is exactly what you are doing.
We are trying to help you out by giving you solid, PROVEN advice - but if you aren't willing/able to take it, then why even come on these boards for help/support?0 -

I know, RIGHT!?!?!?!?
ETA:
When I was 19 I exercised 2-3 hours a day for a while.
Of course...I also had an eating disorder.0 -

^^^This, I wonder if OP is open to babysit so I can get 3hrs in.
Oh, and since it seems to continuously get skimmed over. OP, revisit your logging, both food intake and exercise calorie estimations.0 -
I'm reading all posts guys. But I cannot, I repeat...CANNOT WEIGH MY FOOD! Why? I use to battle with anorexia and if I start to weigh my food I will soon relapse. I know I will. So please, give me some other advice that doesn't involve weighing my food.0

Eat more.
I know that is hard to wrap your head around. but see my first post/question to you. If you are NOT eating your exercise calories back then you aren't getting enough fuel.0 -
OP... why did it take 3 pages of comments from people trying to help you before you finally tell us about your history of an eating disorder?
Since weighing your food is not an option but you still want to lose weight and have a history of an ED: See a doctor.0 -

^This. And since you are exercising 3-6 hours a day and calling it "dedication," I do not think you have quite conquered your eating disorder. Please see a doctor and get help. :flowerforyou:0 -

and this has been skipped over a couple times too, but pointed out, and doesn't have to do with weighing food.Your workout estimates are vastly over-estimated.
Vastly.

You're probably not losing becuase of you're eating disorder history. Try properly fueling it, and actually exercising moderately, not obsessively. You'd might be surprised that you'll get to a healthy weight for yourself.
Also, its interesting that logging your food doesn't trigger your anorexia, but you think weighing your food will?? As someone else mentioned you had several days recently under 500 calories, it seems like your problem might be resurfacing without you realizing it. Please talk to a responsible adult that can get you help.0 -

LOL I was going to say that - I run 45 to 60 mins a day and lift 45 - 60 mins 3 times a week and that is juggling things.0 -

Yes, me too! 6 hours a WEEK of exercise, not daily. And OP--I'm of similar size--if I'm recalling your stats correctly--I'm 5'6", 146/147 lbs. I'm twice as old (so "slower" metabolism, generally), but I eat far more than you are, exercise far less (but a moderate mix of strength/cardio), and I'm losing weight.
Overtraining and undereating is NOT going to accomplish anything healthy. At all. It's not "dedication"; it's a recipe for injury or worse.0 -

Active is one thing, but you are obsessed, it's not the same thing. Everything in moderation.0 -

That's not dedication, you're over-exercising to create large calorie burns and not eating enough calories to fuel your workouts. See a doctor.0 -

Exercise Responsibly (not 3 hours a day), Eat at a Moderate deficit (not under 1200/day). Repeat.0 -
