Yes, that "all or nothing" is what gets me too. I know i shouldn't have that mentality but it is always present. It's as if i am not perfect i can screw it all up since i am such a failier.

I know the feeling, these three days binge free have been like hell. I keep imagining all the things i was eating for those binge days and i just don't know if i will be able to last two weeks. Although i am having money issues so i am not able to buy any more junk, which is sort of an upside.

Because of my anorexic tendencies i doubt anyone would give me apettie surrpresent, especially since i am the low end of normal BMI. I am just more and more depressed because the binges are SO severe and happenig all the time and i feel so disguisting and out of control. Also i am having truble going to the gym because…

It is just such an awful feeling when i used to control everything that now i have lost it. I feel such hate and disguist towards myself which is what i think is causing my overeating. I am really unsatisfied with my body and i am hoping the therapy will help eventually. I have been going for a month or two and yes i am…

Thank you so much. Yes, i was thinking about tht too but my therapist helped me to last 10 days without bingeing so i think i am making progress. It's just the i feel i make one stop forward then eith the binges two backwards. I am trying to talk about emotions and feeling that are causing this but i am hiding them under…

That is not the problem, i buy healthy foods all the time but when i get the urge to overeat i go and spend tons of money on all the junk i can think of. It doesn't really do it for me to keep it out of the house.

The trainer at my fitness centar commented in front of everyone once (when i wasn't on the training) about how much i stink. My sister was there and i actually cried for hours afterwards and got really upset since i am struggling with both low self esteem and an ED BUT you hve to realise that is just showing how immature…

I suffer too, i manage to loose weight and always keep it of for a few months but then STRONG carb sugar binges hit and pile back the pounds so easily. Usually am able to eat 8000 a day of carbs.sugar etc and that is why i pile it all back on.

I'm 5'6" and mine were visible when i went down to 100 lbs( if not lower) but now that i am 110 they are no longer visible. Of couse it has to do with how much you train, my body fat was lower back then, i was exercising 2 hours a day too and i was eating healthy so obviously those were the main factors since now i am…
-
Also, just to mention i did the same thing with 1200 at first and then it spiraled out of control. I think you shouldn't focus on weight loss right now. Even hough it may be hypocrytical as i struggle with that too but focus first on having healthy habits and then you can work your way towards goal weight.

I am in a similar situation so i can relate although i cannot offer you much help but i can try to talk from experience. I lost 25 kg in three months during my anorexia not even realising how fast i was loosing and i was satisfied with my weight and i was eating healthy and exercising but then the overeating started. At…

I stopped training ballet and started eating abnormal amounts of unhealthy foods and gained about 20 kg in a matter of months. Lost those 20 when started eating healthy and training again. Then i started being so anxious about food and eating and life became so stressed and i was really anxious and started emotional…
-
YES! I actually hit my goal weight and maintained it for a while BUT became so anxious, stressed out and had lot of fears regarding some thing that i didn't even know bothered me until starting therapy. For two months i was bingeing on 6000 calories every third day, sometimes even fe days in a row. Starting therapy i hit…

A skinny " friend" told me how much she likes to hug my because i am like a cushion 4. A guy i liked rejected me 5.I coldn't stand looking at myself in the mirror 6. My birthday party was comping…

Wow, you people are inspiring. I hve lost 30 kgs, came to my absolute ideal weight and actually couldn't stop loosing. Then i started to binge and eat A LOT to gain some kilos . Then i gained to my ideal again and a few more since bingeing became a habit BUT i kept it off for few years without counting or even caring. The…
-
Yep, i was skinny my entire life. When i stopped training ballet and started being depressed and felt like my life i was a wreck i spent a year compulsevly overeating which made me gain about 15 kg in a year. When i realised what was going on, i started dieting. I got back at my original weight BUT as a result of my…

I go fo full fat because it helps me A LOT in reducing cravings. I used to be all fat free and started binge eating on 6000 calories which continued for a month on butter and margarine ONLY and it literally happened every day. I was like an auto pilot during the binges, literaly. I then realised my diet obviously wasn't…
-
It seemed to me like that too. I actually kept loosing and lost about 5 kg while just trying to maintin. Although i stopped looking at MFP, tried not to be opsessed about me since my trainer, nutritionist and therapist said i should stop immedietly so i could've been easily eating lower than my maintainence even though i…
-
Well i cetanly hope so. Even though there are days when i don't feel i want to recover fully. I know i takes time and effort which is why i started therapy and seeing nutricionist on time before my disordered eating got fully blown. I just cannot imagine a life where you do not focus on food at all but perhaps eventually,…
-
I have been exercising regulary, even during the overeating week i did it on the non overeating days which is why i am hoping not all of it was stored as fat. I know, i am just kinf an "all or nthing person" which i am also trying to work on.
-
I am trying not to count calories since that is something i learned during my recovery.I am just following plan nutritionist gave me right no. Thank you for your respond, i eill ty to focus on getting back on track rather then the weight gain.
-
Thank God 7 kg fell of after the fast and normal eating for one day. I guess the fat gain must be 3 kg in that case which i am not so stressed out by. Thank you for the info. I appreciate it.
-
Thank you, i really hope so. I am back on my regular maintainence today, i am hoping to get back to regular eating habits and my "safe weight" soon enough.
-
I don't think i will ever be fully recovered but i am going to therapy and am trying hard. I am at healthy weight range and i got my period back but i don't want to gain any more and i have been keeping this weight on for a few month until the past week when i gained about 3kg. I always was and believe i always will be…

I didn't do the cleanse as a weight loss managment, it was suggested by my nutritionist.I know three days don't cause much of a weight loss, if any but i had dastronomical problems too so she thought it would help me out. I have never had a problem with binging but this week has been ctastrophical and i have literally…
-
I know, i started therapy this week and i am dealing with issues, some of them are out of my life which is why i decied to get back to healthy lifestyle. But since i am also worried about my weight gain, i was wondering if anyone could help me out with that matter? I mean provide the information about rapid weight gain and…

It's great that you are realising that you should get back on track and now you need to realise ou are strong enough to do it and once you get back into routione it will be a piece of cake. If it makes you feel better, i have had a really rough patch in y life and have been going 2-3000 over my calorie maintainance for a…
