With the number of free clinics that are popping up - at least in my area and whatnot - it is. You don't necessarily need to see a specialist to receive a quality diagnosis (you may want to for quality treatment as many go through a 4-6 hour training on eating disorders then label themselves specialists - so always make…

Dude, just get yourself a yummy protein powder, and use that! Make yourself some peanut butter, green, fruit, etc. based- smoothies with some protein powder in there, and it would essentially be the same thing. ;P And! A lot cheaper. :)

If you want to go with that perspective and notion of things, everything in this world is biased and 'one-sided' and you view it, and nothing is truly factual/without bias. We will always be swayed with our emotional experience of things, whether we be meaning to withhold pieces of information, or not. Dichotomous thinking…

This sounds like the type of advice Dr. Phil would provide - drastic and illogical. Haha.

I agree - you should say these things to him! If you're this frustrated over his lack of support and understanding, then he needs to know not only where you're coming from, but how he can better support you. If it's any solace, i'm in the same boat;i work 8 hours a day (i'm on my feet for all but my 15 minute and 30 minute…

It has nothing to do with desperately craving carbs - it's literally another version of sleep walking, in which somebody sleep eats.

Fat is an adjective - not an insult. I'm pretty sure you wouldn't of been offended if the same girl called you skinny, eh? Skinny & fat are adjectives used to describe our bodies - ones we place ENTIRELY too much meaning in.

It's that, or you buy a new pair even sooner. I always buy new shoes when mine are worn out, which is gauged by when the bridges are bad. If you swap out your shoes, the bridges take longer to wear out, and if you use one pair, the bridges go bad sooner. So, it's financially the same situation. I could be mistaken as i'm…

I went to doctor after doctor after doctor until i FINALLY found one who validated my experiences of my eating disorder - Binge Eating Disorder being more like an addiction to food than an eating disorder. Have you tried seeing a doctor that specializes in addictions? That actually may help a lot - when i was looking for…

Same!

Thank you for that tidbit of informaiton! I was looking online, and not only was the information lacking there, but i kept going to health stores that sold the Polar FT4/7, and they couldn't answer my questions either. :) Appreciate it!

Question - do you need to wear the chest strap 24/7 to get a accurate reading? I want one, as i was a fool, and didn't do much research before buying a Fibtit. Since the Fitbit really only measures the movement of your arms - and i'm a cashier so it's very often screwy - i was looking to find a device that could measure my…

Metalllll!

First off, the idea of 'eating clean' is really problematic, because eating healthy includes treating yourself every now and then (which i'm doing right now - with some wine - so excuse any grammatical errors and whatnot in this post). Also, clean eating has no clear definition that i've come across thus far. Secondly,…

1. YES: nobody will ever come between me & my coffee. Never. Ever. 2. I don't think it's that they've gone back and forth on coffee, and more so about the healthy dosages/those who would be safe consuming it, as it is a CNS stimulant. 3. OP: yes, it is a drug. Just like any other substance people tend to abuse. That being…

Weight loss merely reduces your mass: it doesn't solve your body image/self-esteem/confidence issues.

Haha, same. -_-

My dinner had to be quick, so it's not very elaborate. I ran into the house, and thew together what i could before my appointment 15 minutes later. I tossed some gluten free pasta (spinach flavored, so good!) in tamari, scallions, and grated ginger. Heated it up. Voila. :) I usually add some veggies or some tofu/some…

I'm actually in the same boat, except 21 instead of 19. I've struggled my entire life with both Anorexia and Binge Eating Disorder (obviously not both at the same time as that's not possible...but i flip flop over the years, between the two extreme disorders). Right now, i'm trying to find peace with my body, and with…

This, so much this. If you start looking at women as human beings as opposed to something to merely 'pick up', that would help. Women like being equal with their partner, not being viewed as some 'challenge' or sexual being. That being said, be yourself. If somebody is going to fall for you, they're going to fall for all…

Like your title says, it's all about finding balance. Being super restrictive/obsessively measuring portions isn't healthy, nor is completely letting go and merely eating impulsively, without much thought behind your actions. I used to binge on dried fruit and nuts, but what helped me was setting rules of sorts for myself:…

Don't get it from Whole Foods, unless it's on some massive sale. It's always expensive there. If you're in the tri-state area, check out Fairway Markets.

Going to the gym (in the long run) would be a more beneficial option here, assuming that you don't just go to the gym for cardio. If you're serious about weight loss, a combination of resistance training AND cardio would make a pretty nice difference in your calories expended, as more muscle mass means more calories being…
