I would just focus on the exercise component as a way of alleviating stress, not losing weight. It sounds like you've had a complicated history with your weight and especially since you're in school, I don't think losing weight should be your number one priority. When you aren't with friends, eat healthily, with the…

I know Orgain is organic, vegan, soy free, and tastes fantastic...it does have a few *questionable* processed ingredients, but they are pronouncable and they are certainly organic.

Wow. As someone who is experiencing the emotional repercussions of having divorced parents (I was 12.5 yrs when they split, about three years ago). I also became overweight those first few months of the divorce, and my mom also had many self imposed dietary restrictions. I did not have a good relationship with her, nor my…

I picture eating the food I'm about to binge on. The taste, texture, etc. I know that if I eat it quickly, I'm not going to enjoy these things, because im going to be upset that I ate something unplanned. I will also probably eat it quickly and out of shame. My stomach will feel tight afterward, and I'm going to be so…

Why can't you eat meat? If its for ethical reasons, I'm totally on board with you, but in terms of calories and health, a little bit of meat can be good for you in moderation. If you really don't want to eat meat, there's some delicious non dairy powdered cashew cheese stuff, which has nutritional yeast in it. The yeast…

Any kind of protein bar, a protein shake, popcorn, a serving of chocolate, veggies and hummus, fruit... Any of these would be good snacks. You could even eat a controlled portion of chips if you wanted.

I'm so sorry. I guess you're restricting intake now. This makes it a bit more difficult to give you advice, because if you're losing weight through anorexia but you want to do it heathy, the only way to do it in a more healthy way is to eat more than you are now. Which seems completely counterintuitive! Were you diagnosed…

Hi! I can completely relate to your situation. I had anorexia about a year ago, and after I lost a lot of weight I gained it all back (and more) to please my family. This quickly became a struggle with binge eating disorder. When I finally got help, I was at 156 pounds and I looked and felt terrible. This was around the…

Similarly, jumping on the trampoline really helps when you're on your period.

This looks great! I'm aiming for 2500 miles this year. I'll sign up as soon as I can

I am so happy someone asked this!!! My problem is that I tend to eat a very high fat diet, which suits me fine, but when that time of the month comes all I want are carbs. Like today, I ate cereal, a sandwich, a larabar, popcorn, and I'm going to have cake later (ugh I know!). I know tomorrow that I'll be able to bounce…
