Green tea.. and soup.

your daily activity (job, for example) also affects what your intake should be

too many. skinny jeans, fitted tops, skirts, anything that doesn't make my arms or legs look fat.

There won't be a cumulative effect if you simply swap the donut/free treat for something else in your food diary worth the same amount of calories. If you feel bad about it, exercise it (or a portion of it) off. A small treat a day keeps you happy, rather than ignoring the cravings and depriving yourself. It's what keeps…

i can manage six then i need a rest.. better than before when i couldnt even do one! skinny arms :(

i can't help being new ;n; i sure won't haha ^.^

yeah i'm not ^.^ i'm just so new haha.. i guess i have to go through the noob stage at some point ;n;

thanks! :happy:

*has almost 2,000 posts* :bigsmile:

Haha, luckily I don't have kik, so no progress pictures for anyone :tongue:

True, I will. These things take time! Thank you. Good luck with your own magic combination :happy:

awh :smile: glad you can relate I suppose, you're never alone. thank you! :flowerforyou:

My GP decided to cancel my prescription because I was a whole lot better.

I will try :smile:

Yeah. Maybe. I really don't think I have an ED though. Or at least I wouldn't meet the criteria so I would be refused treatment. This under-eating is depression related anyway. It's not as though I'm consciously thinking "I'm going to fast today". It's not an attempt to lose more weight.. I'm fully aware I need to eat a…

True, it makes no difference - if I could control myself in a fast food place I'd have 2000 of the "good stuff" every day. :bigsmile:

I know it's damaging - I honestly don't realise I'm doing it. It's not as though it's my attempt to lose weight! My appetite and motivation simply flies out the window on bad days. First step is realising it, right? :smile:

Seeking it! I'm glad the counselling helped him, hopefully it'll have a similar effect on me. Thank you! :flowerforyou:

True - sadly my doctor specifically cancelled my prescription (whatever the term is) six months ago because I seemed a ton better, which is true, but now I guess she's trying to get me to see my counsellor instead. I suppose this way I can talk/cry out my issues and get to the root of it rather than drugging myself as my…

True, they don't understand - it's so much more to it than just "why don't you eat salad instead if you feel like you're going to binge" well no, because my binges usually mean i'm craving tons of carbs and sweet things (my sweet tooth is the bane of my life) and i have literally no control. :cry: Glad you've managed to…

It makes a lot of sense. KFC and McDonald's are cheap - you can have a meal to yourself for maybe £5 or less. They're quick, filling (full of fats and carbs but that's not the point) require no effort (apart from getting your butt down there, or maybe your car if you're lucky to live near a drive thru) and don't cost much.…

thanks everyone.. i have seeked help before (prescribed prozac) but i got better and discontinued use. now i'm getting counselling but i'm so sceptical. sorry to unload this, i'm totally reaching breaking point and my eating is going crazy.. was simply wondering if anyone understood or had been through something similar

cake, trifle, sausage rolls, large mcdonald's meals, iced cream, cheese cake, pasta, bread, nutella, jam... if only i could pick one! you're asking an ex-compulsive eater here..

thanks for understanding! glad im not alone.. the winter is just so difficult :(

yeah true. i've just been so anxious and depressed and had family problems top so i'm returning to my old binging ways :( i should probably be aiming at 1500-1600 due to my activity but sometimes even getting the calories up to 1000 is difficult as i both have no motivation to eat and no motivation to be active.
