Fruit, dried or fresh. Or add some seeds or nuts.

There are a lot of "pro ana" people which is terrible. But the people with legitimate eating disorders, the ones that don't promote their disorders (I wouldn't call it a lifestyle for it's not something you can choose to have happen to you) may be eating under 1200 too if they are not getting help. Probably people just…

Everything in moderation. It's a healthy fat, in moderation!

I was a vegan before I developed an eating disorder but had stopped for a while and when it did develop. I chose my diet for the health benefits, for animal rights, for the economical and environmental positive impacts it has, and for religious reasons. It makes me feel very good health wise by eating a vegan diet too.

Whew, beyond full really! I can get to about 1200 pretty easily and be full but I have to push myself to 1600...

Thank you for taking the time to write this; It was very informative. When I look in the mirror now, I like what I see, and I want to stay the way I am and continue eating healthily and being in shape whether that be at my 89-90 lbs or a "healthy" 94 lbs.

Right on.

Wow, thank you for that. That definitely made me feel tons better, because I agree that you only know how it feels if you have had an ED yourself, no matter how severe it was. And congrats to you for being so incredibly strong! Really, that's quite an inspiration. I feel that I am much, much, much healthier than I've ever…

Yes, of course, I plan on talking to my doctor the next time I go in. I have a smoothie every day (with fruits, leafy greens, nuts & protein powder) as a snack and I agree it's super beneficial at upping my calories healthily not to mention absolutely delicious and refreshing.

But see, the lowest weight for my height is 94 lbs, and I fluctuate between 89 and 90... so is the 4 lbs really going to make that much of a difference?

My settings are at maintain right now (though I change it back and forth sometimes from gaining and maintaining) and it is at "active" since I'm on my feet most of the day. This means I need to eat between 1600-1800 and I burn about 100-200 calories a day, but I always have a net in between those numbers. The ticker looks…

I have been recovering from an eating disorder for a while now, but I've been on track and regained my health and some of the weight. However, like I wrote in my description, I meet my daily requirement of calories & nutrition to maintain my weight, though sometimes it is even over that. When I say "exercise 5 times a…

Thank you all for your concern; I really do appreciate it. I've been trying to get out of my habit of under eating. I have an eating disorder, yes. I've been trying to eat a healthy amount of calories and still trying to exercise and tone up. I know it'll be worth it in the end.

Some of the people responding to this post are being very rude. Yes, as stated, usually it has to do with genetics, mostly wide hips. I'm 5 feet and underweight, and I just barely have one. As for a flat stomach, do cardio, eat healthily, and do pilates or yoga.
