I advise asking for a change in medication. Wellbutrin helped my mood and my weight loss immensely, but I cycled through a couple meds before I hit one that helped.

I eat chocolate. The really dark stuff, 72% or 86%. You need less of it to cure the craving and it is better for you anyway.

At last - a post with some sense that ties in with my own experiences. Thank you for posting this!

I would say so. You wouldn't want to slow your metabolism by eating too little.

Powerfully written. Beautiful. It's the talent inside that counts :)

Your body is adjusting to extreme calorie restriction and massive amounts of exercise. Eating 1000 calories a day or less is bad for anyone; it puts your metabolism is starvation mode, meaning that it slows down considerably in order to get as much as it possibly can out of the little food you are giving it. Also,…

Eating too few calories a day will eventually backfire; your body is not getting the nutrition it needs and you mayeventually start binging so that your body gets the nutrition it needs. Find out your TDEE and stick to it.

It's normal to feel super sore after a killer workout. Just give yourself a few days rest and jump right back in. As your body grows stronger you will feel less sore :)

Beautifully said! And better than my own advice, if it comes to that...

Lying to your mother, although scary and painful, might be your only option. My mother is also very controlling, and the only way I discovered I could have a life of my own was by lying to her. Is lying a good thing? No. Is it sometimes vital? Yes. If you have friends who will feed you you can cut down on food costs since…

What's happening is that your body is demanding the calories that it was refused when you restricted. The way to stop that out of control feeling is to eat little and often. You WILL eat a ton of food a day (I'm netting anywhere from 2500-3000 a day and I just started recovery in earnest) but it's good for you and will…

I can help :) as much as I am able. I'm serious about recovery as well. It's really hard...

I'm trying to make healthy habits for myself, so I eat as healthily as I can. Unfortunately that goes against my natural disposition, so it's difficult lol

Have you read Lord of the Rings? :laugh:

It gets easier as you go along. Trust me, it's all worth it, and even fun :)

Nice.

Add me please!

Hey, I'm trying to recover from EDNOS before going to college. I'm 5' 3.5'' 100 lbs. I'm trying to gain at least 6 before college, preferably 9 lbs. But gaining weight terrifies me :/ Maybe we could support each other.
