so yesterday i did well with eating 600 cals.
and today i has a chicken salad and an apple.
so far this week i exercised once..my goal is to exercise at least 3 times this week doing an hour of cardio or more.
my goal by next tuesday (weigh-in day) is to weigh 131-132. my cw right now is 133. a few days ago i was 135.
on another note....im not a smoker....in my whole life i have had about 5 cigs and i would usually have it when im feeling thin and ive lost weight cause i just feel tiny with a cig. and i would usually have it like every 3 months or whatever or longer.....but last week i had a cig and i just had another today. so its been a week since ive craved one. and i dont want to become addicted or anything. i mean it was just last week i had one...and i just had one today...i usally have them like every 3-4 months and im real scared.
my goal right now is to try and not have one like 1-2 months.
i know im going to crave one in 1-2 weeks...i just know it...but im not going to allow myself to have one...i cant.
any suggestions???
<3

hey everyone =)
so i don't know if any of you remember but i posted a while ago about me being definantly on the road to recovary and i am/was doing really well
but on monday my phyciatrist has sent me to a special person who deals with ED's she warned me that it's gonna be really hard and tough
and i suddenly realised that after this, i'm gonna be a completely different person, i'm gonna be eating healthily and i don't know weather after this i'm ever going to be thin and she kind of said it but i read between the lines. "we need to get sarah eating a normal healthy diet, no vigerous excersising etc." so which means 2000 cals a day with out being able to burn anything off =\
i'm really scared that this is going to change my life forever and i'm not ready for that
so far all i've been asked to do is just moniter my eating and try to eat three meals a day, i've been aloud to purge, but not fast. which has been hard but managable.
i'm a just being silly ?
should i really go for it, because she said that i can drop out at any time but if later on i'm on death's door then she's gonna come and admit me no matter what she says. she said that at the moment i haven't done any fatal damage to my body (they took blood samples and stuff).
i'm just scared.
please help, what do you think i should do, go for it, or carry on the way i am
xx
SORRY TO DRAG ON !

ON ANOTHER NOTE
I do about an hour of cardio every day... so why am I not losing inches?
Seriously, why?
I have a shoot on Monday, and go on holiday on Tuesday. Marbella. Bikini... ouch. I'm half looking forward to it and half not.
It's a girly holiday, so major cals from alcohol, but on a plus, I am going to spend every hour in the pool burning it all off, and I never really eat in that climate.
Must google the cals for drinks like Sangria though!
How gross is this?
The other day I went to the beach with my friend, and totally binged on Starburst and Skittles... so while she lay tanning with her ipod in a mere few feet away, I purged. It was rainbow coloured haha. But yeah. I've reached new lows, purging about 3ft away from my friend, into a hole I made in the sand. Ewww Jess, you skank.
AND she's so skinny, I resent her.
Worst part of body : HIPS.
Do you think it is realistic to lose 4lbs by Monday?

"singledigitsplz" is trolling and posting very obscene content. Please delete their comments and ban them from the community.
Because i'm on prednisone all I want to do is eat tons and tons - and I can't purge because of my pleurisy!
Can you guys tell me not to, or that i'm too fat, or something to get me not to? I'm desperate here!

I've been away from this site for a while now. And so for many users on it now, you will have no idea who i am but maybe there's someone who remembers me. So heres how things have gone:
I went into a stage of recovery. It has its ups and downs but things arent to bad. I still think about calories when i eat and i stil obssese over what i eat...but the important thing is i guess that i'm eating. Wronggggggggggg.
So what if im eating "normally", i still worry about weight, i still worry about my appreance and i still cant bring myself to wear a stupid bikini because i dont want to show people wht ive done to myself. Theres not just the appreance of weight loss of me, but the scars from when i self harmed.
I had a major down fall yesterday aswell. I havent really ate out in public.. well, for alonggg time. I just cant do it. I tense up and and can barely bring the food to my mouth... i just think everyones looking at me eat, so i feel under pressure... to eat normally, eat clean...eat like everyone else... who knows, i cant honestly explain it because i dont even know why myself. anyway i went shopping the other day with my with two friends. one of which is a music teacher of mine and you may remember mentioning how she quized me on my eating habits and said that she found people with eating problems annoying. so i denied them obviously. what she said may sound harsh but i can understand why she says tht. her best friend had bulimia. and she has close links with people who suffer with ed's and maybe she just feels like theirs a lot of pressure around her to support people. I work within theatre and she teaches within theatre, and im not saying most people with ed's work in theatre but its more common to find dancers etc. who worry ove their weight etcetc. anywayyy. i ramble sorry. We went shopping and we went for food. it wasnt even lunch time. i could just said i wasnt hungry. or i could of said i had a lot for breakfast but no. I had to go and prove a point didnt i! I have actually never eaten in front of her beofre. and she knows it. she offers me food all the time and i kindly decline. however i thought u know wht im going to buy a .. wait for it.. bacon sawndwhich and prove to her i can eat if i want to infront of her.
wrong again.
when it arrived i freaked out. I couldnt stop shaking. And then i took forever to eat it. she commented on how i chewed every mouthful so much. so in the end i gave up. i just left it and walked a way.
way to go me.
i have to prove a point dont i and then only to uplift her point that i have "issues"
fuk sake!
im annoyed at myself. all i had to do was say i dont want anything!
bloodddy heellll
anyway im going to go before i get even more angry remembering this moment by typing it up. hope everyones ok and sorry i havent got time at the moment to comment on everyones posts but i will later on :)

In my last post I wrote about something about my chest hurting a lot... I went to the Drs and was diagnosed with something called Pleurisy. It has something to do with the lining of my lungs being inflaming and rubbing against each other and filling with fluid.
And OMG it sucks SO BAD! It hurts to breathe and I can't lift anything. My mother handed me 3 magazines and I can't lift them at all, and barely even my purse. I feel like an invalid. My roomate had to carry everything in for me... oh man.
They put me on prednisone to help get rid of it... lovely.
I feel a bit better today, but yesterday was the worst.
When I was in the dr's office I asked about anxiety/antidepressants b/c I'd been feeling just... so down for the last 2 months, and they put me on a months worth of paxil to do some butt kiicking.
Anyone had any experience with that? My main worry - gain or lose wieght? duh. haha. :-D
Keep fighting ladies.
You all are my rocks.

I haven't updated in like, a week becuase I've been very busy.
I've worked every day but monday, which bites becuase it's a total suck-fest.
on Monday I went to see my favorite band in the world and they were wicked dissappointing. (and of course I didnt meet my gw for it)
I passed out at the concert. not gooood. but then I just moshed my way back up to the front to find my friend wanting to leave the pit.
such a waste of energy! i bet I burnt a lot of calories though that though, it was soo hard. (idk if any of you have been to a big rock show but I got stuck in a circle pit and I thought I was gonna die.....so I just ran for my life)
my eating is so up and down and its really making me soo mad and depressed.
I dont know how much I weigh, I'm afraid to step on the scale, I really am. Whenever I see one I start to freak.
I eat the same meals every day, because if i dont do that I either starve completely and pass out becuase of the heat or i over-eat.
aand to add to that, I have trained for cross-country season ONCE in the last WEEK, because it wont fregging stop raining here in good ole NH and I dont wanna get sick and then not be able to run when it does stop raining.....
I'll shut up now.
Just to update those not on my friends list.
i made a suicide attempt last week, with no results... but then threw up more blood a few days later so.....
I was taken to the ER by my GP with a BP of 80/50 and a HR of 40ish after a saline drip...
I was written off as psychotic with increasing threats to hurt self and others.
bullshit.
I was put on a 5150 which basically landed me in a psychiatric ward for 7 days.
Today was my first day out and I spent it from 9:30-3:30 in outpatient which included three feedings. I already gained weight and I want to cry. And I have cried. My parents know everything about me now.
There was a big fight when I went to take a shower and my mom got paranoid and thought I was purging. She pounded on the door screaming "STOP THROWING UP! I KNOW YOU ARENT IN THE SHOWER! STOP!" i started sobbing silently in the shower for a long time, and purged into the shower drain (we have a shitty open drain so hopefully this one slip up won't hurt me).
I don't want to get better, but I am thrust into recovery. At inpatient, I lost 5 pounds. I was 140 this morning. Bets are on 142 tomorrow.
I've spent most of this afternoon and night crying.
I don't want to get better, but how do you tell people that and have them just leave you alone?
i'm really emotionally drained. my 4 diagnoses are:
-Major Depressive Disorder
-Bulimia Nervosa
-Generalized Anxiety Disorder
-Obsessive Compulsive Disorder
-(self-harm)
i am no longer returning to my university. i want to just die.
can ANYONE help me? i don't want to gain.
140 is perfectly fine for a person of 5'10".
i do still want to get 137.
but i'd be OKAY with maintaining until i've convinced people that i'm all better.
i've caused my mother a nervous breakdown. :( life pretty much sucks, girls. i don't know what to do.

ok, so today has been one of my "eating days".
I had a tiny bowl of spaghetti with hot sauce. (Only a teaspoon>.<)
And water but thats all.
Tomorrow is my cram school final test and there's gonna be a party after.
Im trying to figure out if i should eat tiny tiny portions of the food there or eat whats given to me and purge it out in their bathroom.
What do you guys think?

Hey everyone. i had attempted to fast today... then i turned it into a liquid fast. then it turned into no kind of fast. i ate so much! then i purged, or tried to, but hardly anything came up; it just looked like mostly liquids. doubt it even made a difference :/
a while ago, i took so much of my medication because i was pissed, and it totally took away my desire to eat. i'm contemplating doing the same? it didn't do anything bad, it just made me super happy and not hungry for days. it was amazing :). this may sound really stupid but this is not a seriouse medication and there are no horrible risks becides dizziness involved, so don't worry if you're thinking that!
So i'm going to fast for a while, atleast til saturday which i may have to eat if i'm with my boyfriend all day. then when i get back i will fast for as long as i can.
I want to be down to 110 by school, which may be on august 27th.
i can do this. so can all of you.

my ex came (he is still here) to Paris and surprised me! yeah you heard right MY EX BF!
I was like 'wtf are you doing here?' (im not a bitch, I was just shocked)
and get this; the first thing he says to me after he hugs me is 'omg! I can feel your bones.
don't tell me your anorexia is back?' geeez wtf is wrong with him?if it wasn't for his beautiful green eyes and his georgeus face (he is so hot its almost sick I swear)
I would have deff kicked him out for that comment. (still, im not a bitch, even tho it sounds like it)
the thing is; I broke up with him him because of my ed (and also because I never really felt good enough for him)it just makes me mad cos I have really tryed to get over him and with him coming back its not happening. he said he missed me like crazy. I think he wants to get back together.
what should I do??
Today i just felt... down. Resigned to the fact that there was NO WAY i could fast without being noticed.
I did pretty well, all things considered. Half a small banana, a couple bites of lasagna and some salad. Tea coming up, then bed.
I jsut realised that in the last 6 days i've lost about 3kg... that's over 6lbs... closer to 7, even.
And i haven't fasted.
at all.
I mean i never expect progress like that unless i'm fasting flat out. But wow. I'm surprised... and paranoid that my scales might be wrong.
Has anyone else lost more, faster, when eating small amounts than when fasting. I find it easier (and more satisfying) to fast, but if this works better then... well... re-evaluation time?

For the last few days i've kind of been having this chest pain. At first I thought it was related to anxiety, but it wouldn't go away after I tried my anxiety med. And it's been getting a little worse. I'm not exactly freaking out, and i'm starting to think that it could be related from purging? I've been out a lot lately and therefore... purging a lot of horrid food from restaurants. And then there was that 2 day chocolate binge... ew. Gotta love that time of the month!
Has that happened to anyone? A kind of aching chest pain, right side-ish into the boob area, and hurts when you lift things or do anything too strenuous?
I want to kind of figure this out... because if it keeps up I may go see the doctor tomorrow. I just REALLY don't want to say anything if it's related to my ED, I'm hoping it's from anxiety (even though i'm not having any mental symptoms), or something else. (Oh that's horrible, lol).
Let me know, please!
Thank you ladies... you are my rock! :-D
Stay strong. <3

Hello, all! Sorry, it's a second post!
My boss teaches abnormal psychology, but year after year, he skips the chapter on eating disorders. I am going to write to him in a few weeks encouraging him to consider adding the eating disorders to his course since they are fairly prominent in college populations and because there are many myths floating around about them. If anyone would let me quote them in my letter, I feel I could make a stronger argument, since I am trying to emphasize the lack of understanding the average person has about the disorders. (I mean things you've encountered.) If anyone is interested in contributing to my mini-crusade, I would love it if you could answer any of these questions or offer any other remarks as to why it should be part of an abnormal psychology course!
1) What sort of misunderstandings have you personally encountered with regards to your eating disorder or EDs in general?
2) What do you wish people better understood about the eating disorders?
3) What kind of reactions have you received from others about your eating disorder that were entirely unhelpful?
4) The eating disorders are often misconstrued as actions of vanity. What are your thoughts on this? What do you feel contributed to your disorder?
Their textbook neglects the strong biological influences and minimizes the physical detriments associated with EDs, so those are points I intend to make. All contributions are welcome and I would be grateful to have permission to quote you!

I noticed more controversy over eating disorder names again. This seems to be a recurrent conflict, so I am going to weigh in, respectfully.
Some people call the disorders "ana" or "mia" deliberately, as some sort of indication that the behavioral patterns are their "friends." Others do it because it sounds less clinical than "anorexia nervosa" and "bulimia nervosa." Still others call them these nicknames feeling that they're just abbreviations, simply synonymous. Does this make you a "wannarexic?" Does this mean you're some sort of idiot for possibly "loving" your maladaptive practices? I don't believe so. Keep in mind that people with eating disorders go through different stages. Most, if not all, who have experienced one of the eating disorders have gone through a period during which they loved their behaviors, seeing them as a source of freedom, as relief from stresses and sadness. They were comforting. They embraced them. Personifying the disorder does not make one an "idiot" or a "pretender." It makes them someone going through a different stage of AN or BN.
Please keep in mind that regardless of whether or not you feel someone is an idiot, a faker, or a wannarexic, they are probably here because they have some form of psychological dysfunction. So please do your best to be respectful, if not kind. If you feel someone is unkind to you, perhaps it is best to ignore them. Please keep in mind that sites like these are going to be filled with individuals experiencing psychological dysfunction, so you may often encounter unkindnesses that are not reflective of how deserving you are of them. The Internet is full of different people, some of whom may be less than sweet. Try to acknowledge this and turn away from comments that are hurtful.
Those are my thoughts. I take no sides on the issue. If you call them "ana" or "mia," I don't mind. If you're offended by the terms, I understand. But respectfulness from either side would be nice, wouldn't it?
Happy posting and good wishes to everyone. =)

Others do it because it sounds less clinical than "anorexia nervosa" and "bulimia nervosa." Still others call them these nicknames feeling that they're just abbreviations, simply synonymous. Does this make you a "wannarexic?" Does this mean you're some sort of idiot for possibly "loving" your maladaptive practices? I don't believe so. Keep in mind that people with eating disorders go through different stages. Most, if not all, who have experienced one of the eating disorders have gone through a period during which they loved their behaviors, seeing them as a source of freedom, as relief from stresses and sadness. They were comforting. They embraced them. Personifying the disorder does not make one an "idiot" or a "pretender." It makes them someone going through a different stage of AN or BN.
Please keep in mind that regardless of whether or not you feel someone is an idiot, a faker, or a wannarexic, they are probably here because they have some form of psychological dysfunction. So please do your best to be respectful, if not kind. If you feel someone is unkind to you, perhaps it is best to ignore them. Please keep in mind that sites like these are going to be filled with individuals experiencing psychological dysfunction, so you may often encounter unkindnesses that are not reflective of how deserving you are of them. The Internet is full of different people, some of whom may be less than sweet. Try to acknowledge this and turn away from comments that are hurtful.
Those are my thoughts. I take no sides on the issue. If you call them "ana" or "mia," I don't mind. If you're offended by the terms, I understand. But respectfulness from either side would be nice, wouldn't it?
Happy posting and good wishes to everyone. =)
