Age?: 21

Height?: 5'8

Weight?: Anywhere between 138-145 lbs after my latest MIA relapse..

Highest Weight?: Almost 250 lbs.

What weight do you want to weigh?: I would like to keep it in between like 125-135, but it is more about body fat percentage. I am more obsessed with being cut/lean rather than the actual number on the scale.

What eating disorder do you have?: Shit, a little bit of them all. ANA, MIA, BDD, a little BED


In Depth

How many calories do you eat in a day, on average?: My "binge" days run from 4,000 - 15,000 calories per day. My "diet" days run from 400-900 calories per day. My "normal" days (before EDs) were no less than 2,000 and no more than 2,500 calories per day.

Do you throw up your food on occasion?: I throw up after almost every time I binge. That's why I have to stop binging..

Do you want to look like a supermodel/actress?: Depends, do they have a 6 pack? Yes. Well then, fuck yes I do.

Are you in some sort of extracurricular sport, ie soccer or track?: No, but I consider MIA to be more strenuous. :p

Has anyone ever teased you about your weight?: Dealt with it my entire childhood and part of my grown up life. PART of what helped bring out several of my disorders..

Have you ever fasted? If so, for how long?: Yep. The longest I can usually get is about 36 hours; however, once I think I got past 48. Fasts that long for me usually lead to binges though.. :rolleyes:

Do you take laxatives to get rid of food/calories?: nope

Are you 'inspired' by models/actresses?: of course.

Have you ever been hospitalised for your ED?: no.

Have you ever ingested Ipecac to induce vomiting?: no.

Have you ever tried to recover from your eating disorder?: Yep. I kind of temporarily did.


Body Image Q's

Do you constantly see yourself as fat, even though others say you are not?: yep. I always have a negative body image. I am never skinny enough. Muscular enough. Cut enough. Lean enough. Etc..

What part of your body would you change?: Kind of obvious. Be more lean/cut/muscular.

On a scale of 1-10, how happy are you with your body?: 3

Do you judge your value/merit solely on your weight/body?: unfortunately, yes.

Because of your body appearance/weight, have you become severely depressed?: not severely, but yes, Anytime I binge and/or purge I get depressed.

Do you constantly compare your bodies to supermodels/actresses?: Ehh, not really. Although, I will say, I envy every other dude who has a 6 pack when I don't anymore.. Especially Taylor Lautner (sp?). Why is that fucker's pictures posted up everywhere?! haha


Health/Food

Do you think you eat healthy enough?: Not at all. I ate EXTREMELY healthy when I was "normal" since I am a health/nutrition freak and a future health/nutrition major. Now though my binge days are nothing but bad fats and sugar and my diet days are nothing but protein and dozens of supplements.

Are you morbidly afraid to eat carbs?: Nope, I am actually addicted to them.. Mainly because sugar is considered a carb.

Fat grams?: Nope. Lots of fats are actually good and essential (poly and mono-unsaturated)

Calories?: Nah, not scared of them really.

Are you often tired/fatigued?: Either from eating too much, too less, or throwing up my guts..

Do you feel more energised after eating food?: Not really..

Do you eat meat?: On my diet days, that's all I am "allowed" to eat.. (tuna)

Do you eat your food in a certain way? Unfortunately, yes. ..and that would be quickly.

Do people tell you you look sick or famished?: Nope.

Have you ever thrown up blood?: Yes, I have.

Is your heart bpm above 49?: Depends, when are we talking about? At rest?

Do you have fainting spells from lack of eating?: No, I don't restrict THAT much.


Other Stuff

Do you think the media is at fault for the prevalence of eating disorders?: Partially.

What's your opinion of Pro-Ana?: Well, if I HAD to pick.. pro-ANA is much better than pro-MIA..

Do you have any other mental disorders? Shit.. anxiety, OCD, obesophobia. Those all kind of tie into the EDs though..

What's your favourite food to eat?: Right now? Fucking carbs. :(

Favourite drink?: After drinking more than a gallon of water every day (and about to start again) for the past 2 months, ANYTHING other than that.. ha

Do you often wish you didn't have an ED?: Sometimes i get so fed up, and say i just want to be normal. then i binge and purge. Then I get depressed until I wake up in the morning full of motivation. Until I get fed up again mid day and the cycle continues..

Do you want to recover?: Fuck yes.
