Forum for Eating Disorder Support
Hi everyone, I just wanted to say if there's anyone who is recovering from an ED on this site, I have found another website called www.myedrecovery.com and it is amazing like so supportive and the community is currently small so there's extra support. Alongside MFP to check you're getting the right nutrition it's honestly…

I'm needing some support..
I've had a problem getting back on the wagon ever since Christmas. I've gained 6 pounds (cries) and I don't know what to do with myself. I have had a problem with binging. I binged today...pointlessly...and just ate a stack of pancakes along with my daily intake of 1500 calories so i just feel disgusted with myself. I…

Please help me find myself again :'(
It was October. My first ever binge. I stuffed everything in, anything i could. It was my friend's birthday party. From morning until night i stuffed my face. I felt sick, so so sick. My muscles ached. My head ached. Then, it happened again soon. And almost every weekend I would binge. Over the Christmas holidays I gained…

I binged....again.
I don't know why it is happening STILL! It started in October when I restricted my calories to 1200 a day. I binged all over the Christmas holidays too. At the start of January I switched to a plant based diet and it is the most amazing feeling in the world - I also upped my calorie intake to 1400. However, yesterday I…

Healthiest bread in the UK?
So I've recently began incorporating plant-based foods into my diet, and I don't want to give up bread for my lunches during the weekdays. I just really struggle to find a healthy, gluten free if possile, non-weird-ingredient-filled BREAD! (Wraps would also work...) Does anybody know any great breads out there for me?!…

Scared to step on the scales!
I just had a mini break to the UAE, and while I was there, for just 4 days, sorta pigged out. I wasn't eating every second of the day, I just ate big portions at restaurants and scoffed myself with food at the breakfast buffet. I basically feel super fat now that I'm home and am praying I didn't gain any weight. Will I…

Running 6 times a week for 30 mins?
I would rather do 60 mins 3 times a week, but I'm not fit enough and certainly do not have the endurance. Anyway, I was wondering if this would help me tone my body up? I'm looking to start wearing crop tops and bikinis when I get to my goal weight. I haven't been exercising and realised that I must start to, not just for…

How to get a flat stomach?
I didn't know where this discussion would belong, so I just chose exercise. My stomach, even after being below my goal weight, is still rather 'bloated' and a bit podgy. I don't know whether its because I'm eating fruit too late in the day (I just had 20 grapes haha). Right now I feel uncomfortably bloated and I don't know…

I'm worried about myself
Ok, so, last week (Friday) I had the biggest binge of my life and ended up eating probably over 4,000 calories. It was my friend's birthday party and I let myself go a little too much! I permanently gained a pound, so, that wasn't too bad. But today I had a cheat day, as every Friday, and I literally just tried to make…

Weight hasn't budged in a week?
I've usually been losing 1-1.5 pounds a week. I'm now around 2-3 lbs from my ultimate goal weight, and was so disappointed when I stepped on the scales this morning (like I do this time every week). It has been the holiday so I've had days of not eating well and some nights I'd have dinner literally being just cereal with…
