in Introduce Yourself
Hello :)
I'm Elena, and I'm 166 cm tall, and I weigh 69kg :)
My HW is 70.2 kg :)

Last year I got fro 66 to 56 kg in like three months, by eating 1200 calories a day and exercising hard.. than since September till now I had some family problems, so all weight came back plus few more kilos :(
Well, in the past one- one and half months I basically destroyed my metabolism.. Gosh, I binged, purged, starved myself, than ate healthy, than all over again.
Now?
Well, now I'm just trying to live healthy... and I will weigh and measure myself every 1st each month.
And honestly... I don't care if I don't lose some weight.. I just want to be healthy and stop obsessing THAT much with food.
I will track everything I eat, and I'll try to be as active as I can :)

It would mean so much to me if you could support me, check out my food logs once in a while, correct me if I keep doing something wrong few days a row ('cause I'll treat myself once in a while)... maybe encourage me..
... give me some advice? or you know, something like that :)

Thank you in advance :)

xoxo Elena

    Hey Elina,

    I'm 164cm and I currently weight 70kg.

    My GW is under 67kg, so I'm trying to control and monitor my calories and food. Also, trying to do some exercises to be healthy which is my mean goal..

    I didn't start my day positively as I just eat 2x MAC Cheeseburger :sad:

    So I need some friends and support, so you can feel free to add me

    Hi Elena,

    Welcome to MFP :) It's great that you want to be healthy. Like you, I have been on quite a journey with my weight. Losing a lot of weight by starving and then gaining it back and I think like you it's likely to have messed with my metabolism!

    Well done on a positive first day!

    xx

    Hi I cant believe how much you sound like me at the moment. I have done shakes (lost 5kg and put back on), Michelle bridges (lost 5kg and put back on) etc etc, etc. I have found that i get to 63 kg then work my way back up to 68kg again. In between this is grief, pain, binging, depression and worry. I really need to stop this cycle. I was planning on the same plan as you. I really want to weigh only monthly so those fluctuations dont upset me and send me into a binge.
    I have two children and i would really hate to influence my children and make them think this sort of battle with food is normal.
    My husband said. You know if you lost half a kg to 1 kg a month that would be heaps by the end of the year. I agree I just want to find a happy eating plan where i dont binge. Im thinking im going to have 1300cals a day and if i go up to 1500 some days. Who cares. Anyhow would be great to have support.
    kathy
