Posts: 19
So I've been studying all day today cause I have exams next week I had about 780 calories last time I checked. Later in the day I went out to my Best Friends and we had a little too much fun... She had bought to tubs of ice cream. One turkey hill cookies and cream and one peaches and cream. I kinda ate the whole tub of cookies and cream. Here's the question: Will I gain weight? How much? What should I do tomorrow.. eat regularly, exercise more? or what! Please help.. And is this considered a binge? I was just having a little to much fun with them.. But please help I need some motivation and support on this. By the way I am 5'5 and 105lbs.

You are 5'5" and 105 lbs., which is underweight. You are also describing behavior that I would describe as disordered eating. I might be more concerned about that than about whether you will actually gain weight after eating a tub of ice cream.0

Yeah, something's not right here. Sounds like disordered eating.0
-
I mean this in the nicest possible way. The last thing you need to do is loose weight.I am 5'5 and 105lbs.
Agree with above, this doesn't sound healthy.0 -
Well actually my friend and I we got carried away but I get where your coming from.0

One day of pigging out is not going to make you gain weight. Sure, tomorrow the scale may show a gain, but it is mostly water, and if you normally eat at a caloric deficit (which I am sure you do based on your stats), then it will all even out by the end of the week.
Let it go and move on.0 -
I have to ask. You're 5'5 and 105, which is underweight.
Why are you trying to lose more?
If you only had 780 calories earlier in the day... how much are you eating per day?0 -

Sounds a lot like you have disordered eating with your fear of gaining weight and your current stats it may be worth talking to your doctor about your emotions and eating habits0 -

^This. OP, you don't need to panic over 12 freaking tub of ice cream. Did you have fun with your friends?? Awesome if you did. It was a great time, now it's over. As for the other posts about "disordered" eating - based on 1 post from a 21 year old college student hanging out with her friends? Really?? I wouldn't think there's enough info for a qualified professional to make a diagnosis like that, let alone us mooks on here. Posting that, however, is a GREAT way to get a young lady to panic & actually create problems were none exist. Overreactions for all!!!!!!!!!!0 -
You are underweight right now, you probably know that. Please go get some help, before you do harm to yourself and those that love you :flowerforyou:

She posted her height and weight, some quick calculations along with her comments draw some common sense responses that are hardly overreactions and do not require a medical degree, alot of us care when we see behaviour like this after seeing people we love do similar things.0 -
You will be fine, just eat normal and exercize normal.0
-
The statistically " normal " weight range for a woman 25-70 years of 5'5" height is:
slight frame : 117-130
medium frame ; 127-141
heavy frame: 137-155
No matter how you look at it, you are considerably underweight. You need professional help and keep on eating ice cream......seriously.0 -
Nobody is here to encourage disordered eating whether you like it or not, people will point out what they see.One day of pigging out is not going to make you gain weight. Sure, tomorrow the scale may show a gain, but it is mostly water, and if you normally eat at a caloric deficit (which I am sure you do based on your stats), then it will all even out by the end of the week.

Please tell me in all honesty that you think that the post sounds like the OP has a healthy diet plan? There are reasons for discouraging such diets.0 -

No one is talking about WHAT she ate, genius. They are talking about her reaction as observed from her question.0 -
It doesn't sound to me like I have any info on her eating plan, other than she had 1 night of eating ice cream with her friends. While her weight falls below the "norm", only her doctor could say if she's actually in an un healthy state. Sometimes people weigh less (or more) than the "norm & they are, indeed, perfectly healthy. Whether the OP falls into this category or not I wouldn't know, nor would I tend to try to wind her up about 1 night of eating ice cream. If she IS healthy, then there's nothing wrong with where she is or what she ate. If she's NOT healthy, what purpose is served by panicking her over ONE incident?0

It's not just her bmi that is causing concern here it was her reaction of what seems like panic and fear of gaining weight after eating something she may usually not eat that is causing red flags.0 -

Wow, just the kind of response from someone who doesn't have any FACTS to back up what's been posted. My point is that there AREN'T enough facts to make any kind of diagnosis about her.......0 -

I understand that, but k it's all an overreaction that will panic her. It looks to me like a college student ate ice cream 1 time with her friends and, as young people can do, panicked over what's not a big deal by itself. What amazes me is how many people are jumping on the panic bandwagon....0 -

She's the one freaking out. Which is an unhealthy reaction to just one meal/day. You do understand there is a difference between disordered eating and eating disorders, right?
Many people on MFP suffer from disordered eating to some degree.
But factor in the fact she purposefully lost weight to make herself underweight...it's better to err on the side of caution...which is why people are reassuring her one day isn't going to hurt her but at the same time pointing out certain things that aren't really healthy.

One of the defining characteristics of anorexia is having a BMI under 17.5. people aren't panicing they are drawing reasonable conclusions from the information given, you would be surprised how many people here have some knowledge about these things. It is better to err on the side oif caution. While you say people here are'freaking her out' by panicing, likewise you could not be helping by telling her it is ok, when it really isn't. Glass houses and stones = bad.0 -
I did that, but it didn't work. Of course now it works. Oh well. Finally.0

^Agreed.
And Xero brings up a good point. There are a crapload of pro-ana/mia trolls that pop on and make some sort of "cry for attention" or/and "triggering" type posts (triggering for those on here that are actually trying to recover from their eating disorders).
Most try to point out the unhealthy behaviour/situation of something, as well as suggest they talk to a professional just in case it's not a troll.0 -
Maybe she is just a tiny person, maybe she was just asking a question and was not panicing at all. It is hard to tell unless we were there and talked to her0

While I understand what you're saying & don't necessarily completely disagree, I still don't think there's enough information to say she's dealing with disordered eating OR an eating disorder. I'm certainly not going to wind her up over some ice cream....0 -
