I put on a stone in just a few weeks due to medication. I'm 8st. 5lbs., i want to loose 17lbs. Today when I told people I had started weight loss they laughed at me. I just said, if i gave you a bag with 17lbs of weight in and made you carry it around all day, I bet you be glad when I took it away again. I simply want to…

if you take in less than 1200 for a few days in a row, then your body will naturally assume there is a famine or food shortage and start storing as much fat and water weight as possible. I know you are eating more than 1200 already but I would try to eat 300-400 more than you already do because that may have happened.

I don't have a problem, but sometimes I wake up at 2.09am (its always the same time, i dunno why) and feel an unnatural hunger. I find going to bed later, or not going to bed until im very very tired helps. I would suggest you do something before you go to sleep that drains your mind energy, like reading a book, playing a…

I would love to be able to go to dinner parties. I think my habit/phobia started when I was five, Im now eighteen. I will look into the costs of hypnotherapy, I think its probably the best solution for me. I've started offering to chop and prepare fruit and veg for other people to try and get used to how it feels to the…

thank you :)

That show would have a filed day with me ! Mainly, I eat pasta, potatoes, bread, cheese and beef. Thats about it. Anything else is junk food or fast food. I'll look into sensory solutions.

firstly, it is so reassuring to find someone with the same problem. i dont mind if i sounds silly, hypnotism is definetly something i would try. im very very limited in what i can eat without vomitting/gagging. thank you very much :) if you are in the uk, do you no if hypnotism is available on the nhs ?

ETA: Do you like spaghetti? Tomato sauce is a vegetable. Look for lower sugar varieties. [/quote] roasting might work, thank you for that idea. i love spaghetti, i try to make my own tomato sause :)

i have never been diagnosed with an eating disorder, but i could, im no expert

there may be things i havent tried or not tried in years so i'll pick up few things and give it a go. as i said, last time i tried it just made me sick. i have never been able to pinpoint why i dont like it, the only thing i can think of is that i associate fruit and veg with plants, so when i try to eat it my body rejects…

I'll look into V8 splash, dont know If its widely available where I live because I've never seen it but I'll have a look.

i may try cooked carrots, that sounds like something i could stomach. i'll also look for low call soups. everyone has a hard time understanding, it quite an odd habit.

I appreciate your comment but Im not really up for being unhealthy and chubby :L Im sure there must be something, but thank you anyway :D

caffine dehydrates your body so i would say no. im drinking pepsi max though.
