I guess I did do it wrong...hmm. It was a long one too. :( Trying to recap...today was my first day of fasting, I'm doing the alternate day version. The health benefits I read about sounded really intriguing, and I'd lost about 30 lbs last year only to gain it all back. So I'm hoping I can do this. That was the truncated…

Forgive me, I'm new to this group, so sorry if I'm doing this wrong Hey, it deleted my post?

I second (third? fourth?) the comments re resistance training (free weights for me). It is consistently the difference between me being able to lose and not lose. Plus seeing the definition in my muscles gives me motivation to continue on the right path, which can be difficult if you have a long way to go (or even if you…

For my part, I was saddened to see the self loathing your post exhibited because I can relate to it. Mostly I just wanted to help you if…

I agree, tell your trainer about your ED. It's vital that s/he know your history to properly help you through this process. I don't know if you're at a place yet where you can do this, but perhaps try to view those words "you've put on weight" not as an insulting or embarrassing, but rather as simply an observation? Like…

I would substitute some different words for those in boldface based on the red flags that are waving violently here. The anorexic look may be in or out, but the real issue isn't whether that look is fashionable or not. "Embrace the body you have" --that's the key. Burn your fashion mags. You are headed down a dangerous…

Agreed. The fat burning pill is a great quick fix sell, but they simply don't work. It burns your money, not your fat, unfortunately.
