That's a good idea. ACtually, speaking of scales, my bathroom scales are over a year old and digital. Will the batteries need changing? My weight on them varies each time I step on, so I always do it ten times and average the three highest numbers. Is it just that they're not v accurate, or that they're running out of…

I do, because as a vegetarian I have to - they are a lot of what I eat! Also, I'd feel somewhat dishonest, especially given the sugar in lots of fruit.

just ate a 1000 calorie easter egg and two 210 cals choc bars - 1400 calories!! The egg was only £1.50. oh god. - mind you I won't be eating chocolate orange for a while...

i was feeling faint all the time, whenever I stood up too quickly. I was grumpy and tired and cold! And my fingers felt weird. Like they weren't quite co-operating any more. I also struggled to concrentrate. then I upped my cals to 1800 a day and feel sooooom uch better!

on Sunday I ordered pizza from Dominoes: a large pizza - 2,710 calories potato wedges - 424 calories and four cookies - 364 calories to make a total of 3,498 calories! A pound's worth of calories! The thing is that this binge would be normal for me a few years ago. As it is, I'm restricting a little more this week to make…

well thanks guys. need to do some thinking maybe. thanks to the genuine people who want to help though, it really means a lot. less thanks to the snarky people who seem to think i am trolling. sadly my life really is a cosmic joke
-
yeah. i don't enjoy being sober to experience my thoughts hm
-
oh, sorry, explained that badly. they said i didn't have it (at 14/15 i had tendencies towards disordered eating but then when i was 18 they diagnosed me with bipolar and they then decided the eating stuff was just bipolar? not really sure. anyway, they didn't take me seriously) but yeah, i get that. i do use food as a…

vodka -- doubles and diet cokes normlly. had far too much, ha. but yeah vodka.
-
mm not really. concerned i was developing orthorexia (ha) a few months ago so went, explained the deal, and got told i was just a normal "young person". how i hate that phrase! the thing is that i feel like when i have my weight back under control, i will be able to get the rest of m life under control. not sure if that…
-
thank you. feeling pretty attacked actually but not by you! this makes sense. i need to focus more on eating my macros not just calories i think?
-
...is that sarcasm? i'm an ex drug user. i smoke far too much and i drink too much alcohol and coffee, i'm mentally ill and i'm nowhere near straight. if i'm going to be a stereotypical working class queer pinko commie scumbag at least i don't want to give the daily mail another reason to demonise me, hence the weight loss.
-
wooooow. loads though. at least when i was on the coke i was thin. wish that was a joke. i get that i'm pathetic!! i am well aware ! but i want to be thin and pathetic not fat and pathetic. gods sake. this wasnt like COME AND JUDGE ME at all, i'm asking for advice, and i get the nth degree? thanks yall love this community…
-
that sounds manageable. once i start i struggle to stop so i think i could do that. or maybe only drink at weekends? or only if i've lost that week?
-
i'm not stopping drinking. i'm not asking to do that! i'm asking how i can stop overeating afterwards! it's great for you that you don't drink and all but well, i do. i've been doing it since i was 14 and tbh i'd rather eat less so that i can drink more. making pithy comments is absolutely no help.
-
haha that would be ideal sadly student lifestyle means i get most of my daily calories from alcohol anyway ahah
-
jaffa cakes!
-
thank you. I didn't know how serious this might be - just scared myself with Googling. I'm going to see a doctor as soon as I can.
-
It's more that I was wondering if anyone had a way to ease myself back into eating a more varied diet. To be honest the idea that I might have disordered eating is scary, plus I can't help thinking I'm too fat for that. Thank you for your answers, though. I've done some reading about orthorexia and I think that sounds like…
-
I'm small framed though. Nobody noticed I was that small, maybe as they're used to me being massive ha. I want to lose another 5lb, maybe 8lb and then I'll stop I'm more like 5'9.5 anyway, but I round up. So my BMI isn't that low at all. I'm annoyed at myself I guess? I started uni in September and I feel like I could have…
-
Yeah, but I still eat more than that. I'm a healthy weight, even a little more than I would like to be, but still a healthy weight. Like, I do eat more than that. I'm just -- I want to be able to enjoy food again. I've not had chocolate cake for months!
-
2,200 but i burned off around 600
-
a pound aweek is nothing, ill never be where i want at that weight! :( like, a year!
-
i go back to uni on the 12th january but i'm embarrassed to go back this big! i dont really want to leave the house haha :/
-
i googled my symptoms (yep, i know this is silly!) but can;t get an appointment to see the doc for a week or so
-
thanks! maybe too much coffee, haha.
-
i wasn't joking, lmao. thanks though. hell, i used to worry bout calories from shampoo somehow entering my bloodstream through my hair. i know it's crazy
-
this is actually really important. i'm just amazed that they're doing research into them, to be honest! :smile: I hope they can find a cure.
-
ahhh yeah I've only logged breakfast so far, thank you!
