weigh and measure everything?

I weigh and measure what I eat. If that makes me a fanatic, so be it.

That is great, but so did my eating disorder, now I feel better. And understand I don't have to weigh EVERYTHING. Just be aware of portion control. I will measure when baking for sure lol

I wouldn't have known about the other thread or your belief that others accuse you of anorexia if you hadn't repeatedly injected those facts into this thread. It seems you get upset if people treat you like you have an ED and get upset if they treat you as they treat everyone.

What I see in your posts are several unhealthy traits ... both in relation to food and in general. There is rapid defensive behavior, starting with your first post before anyone here said a thing about you. There is your repeated injection of an ED you claim you've recovered from coupled with admissions to binge eating and seeing weighing/measuring as a trigger ... not exactly an ED free thought pattern. There is your stated ultimate goal weight which is ... well, I'll be nice and say it's a bit low for your height ... but people are "cruel" for noticing what you say and do, right?

how tall am I? 5ft4 and 120 is too low?

It might not be "too" low, but any lower and you might be entering underweight territory. To give perspective, In this picture

I am 108 pounds at just under five feet.

You are at a great weight now. If you are still unhappy with your appearance, start lifting heavy weights to maintain your muscle mass and lose the last little bit of body fat.

Yea see that is the thing, I see ppl who are like you and u weigh so little but are super toned. So my gw will change (when I see results. I put a rough estimate on my goals.). Idw be skinny dead like, I want to look good (how I see fit)and feel good Hell the more I must way the more food I get right:P Gotta feed my muscles

You look amazing. I always think muscle will make you weigh more, but it is 1lbs just like fat but dense.

Did you even pay attention to the fact she is 4-6" (depending which of your posts we are to believe) shorter than you or did you only pay attention to the number of pounds?

Hi OP - I think you've identified weighing your food as a possible trigger for your ED. How have you been taught to handle triggers? If you can't practice weighing food without risking a backward slide, my guess is that you should avoid the trigger!

I think you can still eat in a healthy and successful manner just using a measuring cup and whatever else you can do comfortably. If you don't make progress for three weeks, look back over your MFP food diary for the prior weeks and look for places to decrease amounts.

I hope you can have the support of a nutritionist.

You are already beautiful.

I'm not hating at all. I am noticing the trends of your post content. You change your height and goal weight between threads and posts (2" and 15lbs ugw is quite a bit of change) ... you have an apparent focus on low weight in yourself and others, whether it is healthy or not (in All Out's case, it is a healthy weight for her height. Neither of the two goal weights you posted on Aug 11 were in the healthy range) ... it all goes back to the preemptive defensiveness and invoking previous threads where you think people were cruel for noticing and commenting on the content of your posts.

Thanks I just want to get back to my norm weight. Well better and not have to go crazy. Yes I have been taught. I ignore the ppl (ppl can be vicious or use a diff method of the same idea) ty for the concern

I'm not sure what Her height and weight has to do with me.

Nor do I recall saying I was 5ft6. Plus many ppl change their weight goals right? Mine was a low 110. But I upped it to 120 lbs. Isn't that better? If I wanted to go back to my anorexia (no ty) I wouldn't be on this site I'd go to a pro e.d site.

Idk y ur so angry. My e.d cannot be cured with a pill like urs. But years of work has helped me greatly. I just want to see the ppl who are kind, and I have met a few on here, who embrace my recovery and yes I will get my dr to help me with binge eating-it makes u fat. And it hurts my tummy/intestines. Bottom line not healthy.

Those who see the stigma in caps and ignore it and help with my questions are great ppl in my eyes. Idk why ur so hell bent on this B-Ri

If you are now binge eating then it's a good thing you have decided to talk to you doctor. Without addressing that ED, and learning to manage that better I'm not sure any amount of advice here on calorie counting or portion control will be that helpful. Losing a few pounds is secondary to having achieved a healthy mental attitude AND activity towards food. I'd focus on that - consider if achieving those results are best served by using calorie counting or not. The people telling you that perhaps not using the site are thinking of your best interest. Good luck.

The bottom line is you are not recovered from an ED, you just switched from one end of the spectrum to the other. You are inconsistent with the truth.

I'm neither angry nor hating. I just have a very low tolerance for those who are incapable of telling the truth and keeping a consistent story. Your contradictory statement in the first post of this thread where you claimed you were recovered from your ED while simultaneously suffering from an ED appears to be a common theme for you. You claim one thing, then claim something completely different ... sometimes in different threads, sometimes in the same sentence. You make impossible claims such as destroying seven years of muscle "toning" in the span of ten days. It is obvious that you still require a lot of professional help with your issues and that the unhealthy ED thought patterns run rampant through your mind.

Goals do change, however failure to acknowledge and take ownership of your previous statements makes it seem that you didn't actually have an evolving position but got caught and called out for an unhealthy target and hoped that making a new statement would make people overlook multiple past comments.

Yea I am so seeing my dr for my binge eating. But Idm counting cals, it's the scare that I must weigh all. Now I am cool that many of you gave good advice ty


Bryan, when I was 5ft6 I had anorexia, it took my height and other things I can't get back. I swear I am sadly not 5ft6. Unless my DR doesn't know how to tell my height (which I am scared of now, that goes in my records) I have shrank in the many years of my anorexia, much like an older person does with bone loss. That isn't the worst thing I lost in my horrific journey with ana/mia/ednos. I try not to reveal too much pure info to ppl like urself, whom cannot comprehend it. TRY to comprehend in which u will never comprehend, u can't. You have been stocking me, and going out of ur way to pull me down, maybe u have issue u need to work on too.
