Recomp Question
Good day everyone. I have come here with a question. I have been doing fairly good with weightloss. The only issue is that the last place for it to come off is my hips/love handles/thigh area. My frustration is that I don't know how to slim down in those areas without losing more strength in my upper body. So I'm thinking…

Frustration
Hi fellow MFPers I am having a day of frustration. I have lost a size from my entire body in the past year. Which is awesome. But I am just annoyed with my body shape. It is 3 different sizes from top to bottom. And for my height (I'm 5'9) I should be happy with my size. 4,6 and 8. Not as you might figure, I have some…

Rough Patch - Need some support
Hello, Figured I'd reach out. Definitely been struggling a bit lately so I figured I'd see if anyone has any suggestions. Considering I had completely stopped for atleast 6 months, and now I have been purging 1-2 times a week, I'd definitely consider that struggling. Also, I know it doesn't help with weight loss and that…

Feeling Unwell - advice needed
I need a bit of advice. I was really really sick this weekend, and I haven't really wanted to eat much the last few days because my appetite is just not there. I'm feeling really crummy though and think my electrolytes may be out of wack. Everything that would help (for example bananas) just doesn't seem appealing. I know…

Binging like crazy....

Dieting Cycle
Hello All, My question is, I seem to find myself going through phases where I want to eat a lot (end up eating maintenance or a bit above), and then weeks where I'm not hungry. In terms of long term weightloss, does it make sense to listen to your hunger, or is better to learn to not eat when you have had enough calories?…

Binging
I was losing weight steadily for a while, but now I just keep binging. Should I take a break with trying to lose weight, or fight past my binging urges.... Or is it even possible. Any tips anyone?

Need Advice
Hello, I need some advice. I feel like my opportunity to get help is gone. I only purge once every few weeks. I also am no longer able to restrict (even if I try) so it's not like I even have any behaviors (aside from the whole purging thing). (I used to have lots of disordered eating behaviors and I feel like now that…

Procrastination in getting help
Hello, I need some advice. I feel like my opportunity to get help is gone. I only purge once every few weeks. I also am no longer able to restrict (even if I try) so it's not like I even have any behaviors (aside from the whole purging thing). I don't exactly eat proper meals though (just not balanced at all) and being an…

When to take a rest day?
How many days can you work out in a row? What if your muscles are tired but you had huge thanksgiving meals and want to burn some of it off? I worked out for 4 days in a row and everything is tired. I don't know what I should do today.

Losing weight/trying to recover
So I have had an eating disorder on and off for about 10 years now. I need to lose some weight, but I keep falling back into bad habits. I try to keep to around 1200 calories, but then I eat more. And then I freak out and restrict. And then I end up basically binging. And then unhealthy things to "get rid of the calories"…

Darn....
Basically my body is rebelling. I'm not even sure where to post this. Its partially related to do with my bulimia and partially related to me just being an idiot. This weekend, I went out drinking with not enough food in my system. I drank atleast 15 drinks. (Mostly all just shots) and I wouldn't of even been sick, but my…

Why am I relapsing?!
i don't understand. I thought by me going up to maintenance calories the desire to eat everything would slow down a bit. I was doing so good, and was only having lapses maybe once a month (not even) with purging (aka throwing up) but it's started to increase to once every week. I'm scared

"Fear Foods"/Eating in Unfamiliar Situations
Hey All, Just wondering what you all do to deal with foods that you feel uncomfortable with. Sometimes when I eat a fear food, I binge, and other times, I decide that I should be eating less because it was terrible that I ate whatever. Logically I know that this is not true. In my head, I feel really guilty. That or what…

Struggling with Eating
I do not know where to post this. All I know is I need some advice. I've just had a realization that I don't think I'll ever be able to get help for my eating disorder. Even though I live in Canada, therapy is super expensive. There is no way I could afford that. Also I feel like I'm going back into a super negative…

Tired... is it my food?
okay based on what I've eaten so far today, is there a reason why I would be exhausted. I feel pretty full so I don't think I need any more food...

Is it really that terrible...
I'm not trying to be annoying, but is it really that terrible to be eating 1000 calories a day. Can it cause bad side effects in a short amount of time? I used to have an eating disorder (never underweight) but I stopped restricting to under 1200 calories for a long time and almost completely stopped binging and purging. I…

Can food cause anxiety
can the wrong kinds of food cause anxiety? or too little? or too much? Also really hungry at the moment. But I want to lose weight, 6 pounds for February. Which is possible if I eat the amount that I have set at. But is it worth my sanity?

Tone Hips?
Hey All, I'm probably gonna get some hate from what I'm about to post. So I know you're not suppose to be able to spot reduce. I am exactly a size 6 in the bust and waist, but my hips are 3 inches bigger than a 6. I would really like to lose from that area but everything I've heard is that you can't spot reduce. But I…

EDNOS Slip up
So, I have not purged in 4 months and have been working on losing weight. I do have problems with anxiety and having new things in my life. And there is a lot of that. My sister asked me to be her made-of-honor. I'm moving in a month and 1/2 (out of my parents house), I have my work review, I want to buy a new car. All of…

Net calorie wise that's around 1300 calories for me (sedentary job) I do work out a bit and burn around 1500 from exercise a week. Please…

Carb Binge - EEK
So last night after working out (which seemed to go incredibly well) I was pretty exhausted. A few hours later, I binged. It is not accurately reflect in my food log because I shift food around because I'm OCD at having my calories around 1300 per day. It started with drinking 2 bottles of diet Dr. Pepper (yea not bright)…
