Stressed about a lack of stressors?
My junior year was the year I was in treatment. When I came back, I had over 60 overdue assignments. I barely got by, and I think I got so used to having behind work in school. Now I’m obviously a senior, and for the entire first quarter, I just didn’t do my homework. I was behind on almost everything, and had so much to…

If you’re eating less than 1500 calories, you’re not healthy.
Unpopular opinion from a former ED patient, but an average teen/young adult needs at least 2300 calories. Once you become and adult, that number only gets a couple hundred calories lower. I get that people have different metabolisms, but if you’re intuitively eating (eating when you’re hungry, stopping when you’re full)…

Ignore my old post. Let’s talk (educatedly) about holiday food!
I see a lot of people on these forums say that they’re so nervous for the holidays, and they’re afraid they’ll gain weight from eating holiday meals. It reminds me of the old ED forums where the people would have full-on panic attacks about the holidays. It even reminds me of myself, terrified of being caught doing…

Need… More… Protein!
While I’m not as afraid of going over my calorie goal as I used to be, I still want to maintain my 1700-1800 limits while still reaching my protein goals. Too often I find myself going over my carb goal, while having barely gotten half of my protein for the day! I love carbs and I’ll forever stand by them, but I want to…

My stats are 148 lbs, 5’2”, and around 25% body fat. Trying to focus on the whole body, but my highest priority is my core (arms are a close second). Any…

Getting the Post-Breakup Dream Body
Got broken up with yesterday, because they “never felt an intimate relationship connection with me.” AKA, I got friendzoned by my own partner. I’m not mad at them, and I know I can’t control their feelings. But now, I’m finding this lack of fear about achieving my dream bod. I was too afraid to start working out and…

Kicking EDNOS’ *kitten* (TW: Eating Disorders)
My disordered eating started around April of 2020. I began descending the bottomless pit that is low calorie restriction and rapid weight loss. MyFitnessPal was my Jesus, and the scale was my God. My “goal weight” got lower and lower for every one I reached, proving only that there was no end to this. I was going to keep…

Currently training for amateur boxing, thinking of losing weight VERY slowly (need to be careful because of an old EDNOS diagnosis). My goal is to get decently shredded but still keep my "soft and sweet" vibe. Current calorie goal is 2,100. My stats are 148 lbs, 5'2", around 25% body fat. Tips, tricks, advice and guidance…
