Hey! I'm Rebecca! I'm here because I have Anorexia, and I wanted to be in a forum where I could maybe get some support. And I'm also glad I have somewhere to vent my feelings about Ana.:p

I really need a Ana friend. I can't find any Ana chat sites. I'm just so fed up with life:( Just so ppl know a lil bit about me. My name is Angel, I'm 20yrs old, and I have Anorexia. I wasn't always like this. I ate nomally as a child, but as I got older, I became more self concious, and started to fast. Then fasting turned into not eating for days, wks, months, and so on. My mom died when I was 9, my dad never got along with me and caused me more pain than I could ever imagine. Also, I lost my best friend because of Ana. She said she didn't want to see me kill myself like this. I don't even care though. She doesn't understand. My bff was always beautiful and skinny, she doesn't know how it feels to be uncomfortable in your own body.:mad: My boyfriend pushed me to become one with Ana also! He used to tell me how fat I looked and how he wishes he can be with a skinny girl but he loves me so he'll stay with me. Which doesn't mean he won't cheat right?!:mad: Can U imagine someone you been with for 3yrs and think he loves you would say something so heartless?:confused: I used to be so mad, jealous, and sad I would bang my head on something hoping to bust my skull open or get a brain hemmorage and die. I still do sometimes, but I think Ana will take my life first. Look, my point is most ppl with Ana want recovery. For me I just wanna die. Most of my family is dead, I have no friends, family, or lovers I can depend on. If anybody wants to talk just e-mail me at To view links or images in this forum your post count must be 1 or greater. You currently have 0 posts. or if you have yahoo messenger you can talk to me there. I just don't wanna die lonely.

My name is Mandi, I'm 22 and I've been dealing with a combination of eating issues since I was 10. I have been recovered, relapsed, recovered, relapsed.... and so on. I've never been diagnoised, mainly because I am terrified of the doctor. My family discourages going to doctors.
Just thought I'd introduce myself, didn't want it to be too long.

so it's 5:18am and I'm up looking at bulimia forums because, as usual, i can not sleep. This one looked different then the endless list of them all. Hopefully i can gain some friends, I'm really just looking for people to talk to. I have been bulimia for over 2 years and ana/some other form of EDNOs since about 9th grade(13-14)...i'm 21 now.
My name's Stefanie, I am in a very severe stage of this and my boyfriend is trying to get me help but I've been through therapy and all of that, and I'm too attached i guess?
I feel like screaming/ripping every strand of hair out of my head because of my extreme efforts to hide it, so i guess that's why i'm here, to share my stories/listen/and have others listen to me.

Hi all! My name is Marleen, I am 20 and I live in the Netherlands. I have been dealing with bulimia for almost 5 years now and I'm so fed up with it. I want to change, I want this gone but on the other hand it's too much a part of me. It's difficult to explain, but I really think joining this forum will be a positive experience:)... so Hello to you all!

Hey everyone, I am so glad to have found this forum. Understandably a lot of pro ana/mia forums are closed to new registration since the onset of the war against pro ana sites, and the fear of prying eyes.

I need a place to connect with other sufferers of ana, other lovers of ana, other prisoners of ana.

Hi, I'm Charly and 16yrs old, sounds so young to me...
Anyway I've had an obsession about my weight since puberty basically but have never lost, any attampt to loose weight lasted about a week until recently.

Don't feel I can talk to friends about it, my parents found out I was binging and purging once and it was straight to the therapist...eww.

Im on a 2468 diet atm but sometimes I just cant bring myself to eat. I'm really woried about the starvation thing, that you loose muscle rather that fat.----Anyone advice on this would be great.

Sorry about the epic^^ haha.

My name is Liz, and I am so glad to finally find a site that i can join. I was a member in a few of Mandi' sites last year sometime, but i went through a period of recovery..(obviously, didnt last) so when i came back to the scene there were no more forums that were letting in new people. So about myself,
I have always had problems with weight, but I had never considered myself anorexic until after i had my daughter. I was always a small girl, never over 115 lbs, but having a baby really changed my body, for the worst. (about 35 pounds worse) So thats what threw me into the ana lifestyle. I basically restrict, unless i loose control and eat something i feel horrible about, then i end up purging. Which i hate doing, so i try to restrict as much as possible.
Never over 400 calories a day. so thats me.. sorry for the life story
Peace

I'm Traci, and i am 19 years old. i just need some place where someone can understand me, maybe give me some tips to help me lose this ridiculous amount of body fat that i have. I'm mainly looking for people to talk to who can understand and won't judge. I'm tired of all the looks. I'm sure some of you guys can agree with that.

Hey Everyone

my name is rachael, im 19, and im EDNOS, im from England. i found this site via google. :-)

im here because iv been going it alone for too long, i was an active member on an EDNOS forum, but not anymore due to alot of things, so iv been doing it alone and i cant do it anymore. i hate my body so much i need to change, im currently in 16/18 clothes UK Size, which is 12/14 US size (i think) and i want to get down to a 6/8 UK size (2/4 US). XD

Hi I'm Mina.

I'm from Sweden, and I am bulimic. And have been for the past year or so.
I really think its nice to finally have a site, where I can share my feelings, because I havn't really spoken to anyone, during the time I have been bulimic, except my friend, who is also bulimic.

I hope everyone can find help, or advice, in my future posts, and hopefully some of you can answer any questions that may pop up.

have a nice day

xx Mina.

I keep making myself sick and trying not to eat!!! but nothing works to lose weight rapidly!!!! Im here because i want to talk to people who are in the same position.:(

Heeelo =)

Well i'm Jamie and i've been on and off mia for only a little over a year. I used to read a lot of articles on eating disorders but they were just rants about how damaging it is. Of course we all know that. Now i wanna be able to post my own thoughts in a support forum that other people can relate to and share their own stories. It's also like a diary that nobody can find under your mattress or in your underwear drawer :p

Currently, i'm not happy with my body weight. It's gone up since Track n Field at school because of the muscle i gained and i had to eat a lotta carbs for high energy :( But summer of 2007 i was down to 75 lbs at almost 5'2 due to loss of appetite from cough medicine ODing. Now i go up and down from 78 ish to 85 .

Anyway, i look forward to being on this site anytime i need to spill my mind.

Hey Y'All,

So I'm Kate, and I'm ana. I fell off track a few years ago because of the guy I was with and started eating, and not just eating but eating a tonne of garbage. I BLEW up to 273, and tried so hard to do it the 'right' way to get back down.

I know that I'm going to catch a lot of flack for being a huge girl that's on here, and that's ok. I just need to come home, so badly. I need to be who I was, and re-gain some control. I am finally getting back on track and was down to 185 and then I moved in with some family and was being too closely watched. I'm headed back to school on Tuesday and have infinetly more privacy, and would love to make some friends on this forum, as the one I was previously involved with has disappeared :(

Anyhow, if anyone wants to reach me on msn feel free to add me To view links or images in this forum your post count must be 1 or greater. You currently have 0 posts. .

uhm, well. where to start?
My name is Fanny (and it does not mean funny, lmao) Im 14 years old and Im from sweden, therfore my english, please tell me if im saying something weird, cause I know I do sometimes, lol.
Im mostly here because I wanna make new friends and share a part of my life with girls/boys w/e, who got the same problem as I do.
This whole ED thing isn't verry big in sweden yet, so there isnt many sites as whyeat.
feel free to talk with me, I love to talk. Im actually a verry outgoing person, but I think IM holding back a bit because of my eating disorder.
But internet is fine, it feels like I can be myself on here.

My eating disorder has been going on since i started 7th grade, and I cant say that Improud of my self but neither disapointed.
I mean, Ive lost so many pounds. And therefor om kinda proud in some strange way.
The worst thing about my life is that my parent doesent seem to notice, or care. That hurts a bit, some of you guys whould probably say im lucky, but its the worst thing ever.
Ana is my best friend in the whole wide world, no one tops her. Shes helped me through some rough times.
well, it feels like Ive been writing for a long time now.
but as I said, please write to me, I need a friend more than anything right now.

have a great time, stay strongxoxo fanny

Hello everyone :)

My name is Raven, i'm 22 years old.
I stopped smoking just over a year ago. I was always skinny, but i was a heavy smoker and so i guess when i stopped i turned to food as a sub.

I'm absolutely miserable at the moment. I've gained far too much! I feel so uncomfortable and all i want to do is shed the flab, it just disgusts me and i can hardly stand to look at myself these days.

Please, i would love some advise and tips on control and eating as little as possible. The tummy and thigh fat must go!
I start the day well, eating just lettuce and water, as i'm preoccupied with work so i dont think of food. But when i get home, my family is pretty staunch on everyone eating together so i give in. I've now had enough! No more! I've made that promise to myself.

I look forward to getting to know you all :)

hi i am james. i have technically been bulimic since i was 13, but stopped when i was 17. i am 19 now and have started purging again. i thought i should perhaps at least join a forum where there are people with similar experiences and problems. maybe i can learn a thing or two about the condition, and hopefully find a way to help myself. :o

im a male and i have an eating disorder, i understand how it feels to think that thin is beautiful. to be honest, being skinny is hot, but only if it looks like your healthy, being about 70 lbs is not healthy, take it from a guy, its just the anarexia talking...see someone.......i am bulemic, but i know i have an issue, i know where ure coming from.. but eat more, when u feel better lift weight...light weight.. hit me up at To view links or images in this forum your post count must be 1 or greater. You currently have 0 posts. for some advice... and then hit the gym... but depending on ure height. if ure 5'0" about 100 lbs is okay... upta 5'7" 140-145 and ull look beautiful and healthy...men like curves...dont let self judgement get in the way...im sure ure beautfitul at ure proper weight

I'm here because I've been off and on with and ED (B&A) for so many years. I was great for the past 7 to 8 years, with no setbacks. But a drastic move, my father's death and just the stress of life plunged me back, and I can't get control of it again. It's scary, but I almost welcome it, because it seems the only control I have in my life. And that's it.

i'm so happy that i found a place to tell people how i feel and not be judged. None of my friends seem to get whats going on they kind of shun it away (they don't like to speak about problems) so i'm so excited that i found this website. talk to you guys soon <3 Rach

I'm here because after being purge-free for more than 3 years something I consider catastrophically threatening to my mental well-being happened and with a snap of a synapse in my brain I found myself leaning over the toilet bowl again. I don't find anything glamorous about ana or mia but as someone who has endured both (ana to a much greater extent) for almost 10 years, I admit it has a tendency to feel as if it is fixing something. I mostly need someone to talk to about my issues and how my ED ties into it. Family & Friends knew about my past struggle but I'm almost ashamed to bring it up again.

:confused:

Well I don't really know 'what' i am exactly lol. I'm a bit of both but not really like EDNOS because they go through like cycles dont' they?

At the moment I eat about 300 calories a day over 2 meals and normally purge the second one. but that changes.

I am the only person who knows about my eating disorder. that's why i don't really know what it is but I like to think I have control over it. Sometimes I'm worse than others depending on what's goin on in life. I've been like this properly (regularly fasting, purging food and losing weight) for about a year but I've been purging really i think since i was about 13 or something (I'm 25 now). Anyway this is the first site i've been to but I just decided I need people to tell about all of this because it drives me mad that I can't tell anyone what I do and I'm on my own with it and have to hide it from EVERYONE!!!

hi my darlings,

Im Olivia, joined the site yesterday...i was so glad, to finally find one.
And i felt, im fed up with that...everybody tells me "your so fuckn skinny like an ana" and i answered..."i dont think so...and pls stop this, 'cause im not that.
I had to told myself...yes honey, u r an ana.
It started almost 3years ago, when i started to modelling.
I think its a kind of on/off stuff...because summers for me, always recovering.
Hope this site will be ok...cause all of my ana friends are recovered, or in hospital. And my normal friends can't even understands me.

Hi, I'm Christy, I'm 26 and I'm anorexic. I just want to be around people who understand what it is I'm going through, the way you can't really help it, how it eats at you, how you try anything to please this thing inside of you that tells you not to eat. I hope I will find someone I can lean on here for extra support on my mission, to encourage me and drive me on, not yell at me and micromanage what I eat.

Stargirl Muse here... { yes thats the name I have... I hate the name my parents gave me and considering this is a free country I changed my name to this one :) }

14 years old....

I have bipolar, mild OCD and a buloxia :P

OCD is basically with stuff like music. I SUPREMELY hate today's stupid music...hell it's not even music. I much preferred the 60s, 70s, 80s, and 90s.
oh and i LOVE michael jackson << verrry obsessive compulsive about him.

lol...meannning... I starve myself until it's too much to bare { lasts around four to five days } ands then I binge like hell ... and then well...I spend two hours in the bathroom and purge it all.



This began around a year back. And sometimes I feel like I WANT to feel the bile rising in my throat and spilling out. It's so gross but thatz what I feel sometimes. It sux.


Buh like...I love life a lot....I think you have to, no matter how bad it gets :)

HI everyone. My name is Peter. I weight 220 pounds. I need to get skinner but it is hard and takes a lot of dedication. However, I noticed that exercising and eating right are key. I am gonna try a new rice and 1% milk diet instead of water. And of course i am gonna work out alot. I am just afraid if i work out too much i might black out. So that is why i am drinking milk to nourish my body. I know i am way fat compared to you guys but i would love some advice and feed back.

Jesus loves you no matter what you go through

Hey all, I'm Heba. I've been bulimic for roughly 4 years. I don't really remember how it all started, specifically. I can't remember when exactly I first purged or what went through my mind when I did. I just remember doing. I remember in High School taking a Psych class and studying a chapter on eating disorders. I remember thinking "How could anyone do that to themselves?" One day, I guess that all changed. I have these crazy controlling parents, who watch my every move and try and control every aspect of my life, despite my being 22 years old. I went to college and tried to make friends, but I guess I was too much of a social outcast. I made one friend, but that lead to the worst experience of my life- and I guess that's what triggered it all. That's the first time I actually admitted that to anyone, except for an ex-special-somone, who I love and miss probably a little too much.

I guess I am just looking for a place to talk to someone and not feel so alone anymore.

hey how you doing. I know how it feels to be pressured into something you do not want to do. I used to diet and it never worked. You need to eat and exercise to burn the calories. Most girls diet but the secret is to workout and eatright look at britney spears she looks awesome because she works out. So i encourage you to eat right and exercise. A recipe i would eat is hot dog egg whites rice veggies with dressing and a glass of milk. If that is too much. eat rice and egg whites it does not taste good but is good for you. And if you wanna talk just AIM me at lookingsand. Hope it helps

Hello everyone,

As many of you have said, it is so nice to be able to join a site that lets you actually apply! I am looking for a forum to speak with other people who are looking to lose weight and not try to recover!

I am 28 and have been ana/mia for 14 years and am sadly at my highest weight ever! I was in recovery for a few years but since I've gained weight I'm more determined than ever to lose weight, and will do whatever it takes for that to happen! I have convinced everyone that I am recovered so everything I do now has to be in secret so I don't have people on my back again!

So I have many tips to share but am obviously looking for some new ones for myself since they are NOT working lately. I'm miserable and desperate to lose weight and I feel that if I had a good support system like this maybe it'll work.... Looking to journal my progress to success!!!

Hey all! I literally just found this site...I've been looking for a bulimia support forum for a while, so I thought Why not? I'm a vegan, and, to be honest, I'm pretty sure my interest in veganism is what led me to bulimia in the first place. I've only been bulimic for a little over a year, but it's rapidly progressed into something I can't handle anymore. I used to be obese, so I'm pretty terrified that my binging is going to lead me back down that path, even though the purging has (so far) helped me maintain my weight. I could really use some help.

Hi, my name's Saryn. I just found this site from a xanga page with links to various ana/ED sites. This is the first site I've found where registration hasn't been disabled.

I've been suffering from depression on and off since I was twelve. I used to SI, but I basically traded that for restriction last spring. Because of all this, I'm on a medical leave from my school, and was motivated to recover in order to go back. But I'm currently teetering on the edge of a relapse. I signed up because I wanted a place where I could talk about ana, other than therapy.

I'm Joanna I came across this site browsing the web.
I'm not sure whether I have an ED.
I've been purging since a long time. Four times a week, once or twice a day the most. Sometimes I would stop for a week or two.
I also eat lots of healthy foods which I don't throw up, and I exercise a little. I've always been chubby or even fat but recently lost weight. Not sure why; I purge more, but also burn more calories walking to my job every day.
So now I'm a normal weight but I definitely throw up regularly which makes me worried.

Very rarely I feel like I'm losing control of the bingeing and purging, when my stomach starts hurting or I spend too much money on bad foods.... I eat very healthily when I'm around others.

I want to know more about what defines bulimia and what causes it . Bye for now. Joanna

Hey guys. I'm Cassie. I just found this site last night. I have been trying to find a website that I can talk to other people about mia. I've had it since I was 18, currently 21. Not sure if I wanna stop. Just wanna talk to people about it so I don't feel like it has sooo much control over my life.

Hey, I'm Hannah, a few years back I went from 14stone to a minimal 7 stone 2lb due to Ana. Everything got better for me, until I binge ate. I'm now 12 stone 13lb and all I want is to feel pretty again. The reason I'm here is because last time I had no one, no support, no one who understood and I hope this forum can guarantee me of someone to talk to.

hi just joined!! sorta jus needed to understand my feelings bit better. seeing as food or the lack of it is allllll i am capable of think about. iv reached the goals i had told myself would make me happy and im not. at all.so iv set new goals which part of me says will make me happy and i believe it because the alternative; theres nothing i can do is too scary.

even though if i countinue my skin will get worse, ill lose my boobs completely, ill do shit in school and lose friends the thought of eating to much or of being fat again scares me shitless so i continue towards my new goals. hope people here understand...

Hello everyone. My name is Jazmine and I found this website through one of my friends. She is anorexic but I have bulimia. I became bulimic around age 16 and I am now 18 yrs. old. To me loosing weight is an additional benifit to my bulimia but it is less about the weight and more about the emotions. When I was young my parents got a divorce and my father was granted visiting rights. He is an alcoholic and has abused me both physically and mentally. He called me fat for a long time and put me through alot. My mother has no idea what I have suffered from him. Because I never told anyone what was happening I began looking for a way to deal with the emotions. I began purging and have ever since. I am 5 ft 9 in. and I weigh 120lbs. I would like to weight less but I play three sports throughout the year which requires me to stay at an ok weight. My goal weight is 100 lbs for now and since I am a high school senior and my sports will end soon I hope to acheive this goal soon.

Hello Everyone,

Just wanted to introduce myself. I go by Kandi. It is nice to meet you all.

I am here because ... I have self image problems? But don't we all? I'm trying to stop throwing up my food and think about doing such things. I'm 21 years old. I am not really sure what to say except, I don't know whats happening to my body.

I'm always bloated. I couldn't throw up all my food in the shower today...I am wondering why? I know most of you have been doing this for a long time. I am sorry to hear that and wish you all the best of luck to stop. I have been doing this since January. I have pretty much eliminated all sorts of foods for the past year now. I have come to be the pickiest eater ever. I am a vegetarian. I binge and purge, my knuckles are red, cut, and scabbed.

I have a nasty taste in my mouth. I am looking for answers, I don't know what my body is going through. I limit my food intake ALOT, but then somtimes I eat. If I eat bad, Ill throw it up. Do I sound like a newb? Do I sound like I don't know what I'm doing? If so, you are right. All I know is that this is what I'm doing, this is what I think about doing when I can't, and I need someone, anyone...to talk me through this.

Thank you for you time and patience.
Feel free to comment, share any thoughts, or anything.

Hi, I'm new (obviously, haha).
My name is Silver Spades, or SS for short. I'm 5'4 and I'm aiming for 95 pounds. I'm currently 112lbs so I have a fair amount to lose. My heaviest was 132 when I was 15, I'm turning 19 in August.
I'm living on 500 calories a day, sometimes less, and the pounds are just melting off of my body (about 1-2lbs a day!). Wish me luck. Thanks guys.

LiquidSkies
04-13-2009, 12:33 PM
So...what should I tell about myself?

I'm a girl who got diagnosed with EDNOS a couple of months ago (and I've been having issues with my weight and eating for a loooong time before it) so I decided to look for some support and new friends.

I also have Major depressive disorder and take my meds like a good girl should, even though there are days that I just can't get out of the bed. I've gotten used to being sick (in many ways) so it doesn't bother me and I hope it won't bother anyone else either :)

I'm currently living with my parents because of my depression, and it's making my dieting very difficult. If there's someone else with the same problem, I'm happy to have some advice :confused:

Please try not to be offended if I say something weird, I'm an European who didn't study English very carefully in High School so I'm now trying to learn more by myself. And I'll try to be very polite. :D

I'm 18 and have just come around to the fact that I have anorexia. I've had it for quite sometime but have just realized what it is. I want to get help for it but at the same time I really don't. I don't feel as if I'm sick which is why I don't want help. I'm just here to talk to other people who are going through the same thing as me. Easter was horrible for me because I was doing so well. I was only eating 500 calories and on bad days 800 plus going to the gym and burning off at least 650; however I was home for Easter and my mom practically forces to eat and there's little I can get away with there. Here's my Facebook page.

Hi,
I'm Julia. I'm 14 years old, living in Australia.
Long story short.
My life has sucked from the age of 8 when my mum started abusing me.
Its stopped when I was 12 1/2 after she drove into me with her car.
Now I have anorexia, because I stopped bullimia because a whole list of reasons-->no offense.
I'm 45kg and 162cm tall.
My lowest weight was 44kg and my highest is 51kg.
I want to be 40kg!!!
After 40kg I will raise my caloric intake by 50 calories every week.
Hopefully my body won't realise.
I eat 360-400 calories depending on the amount of exercise I get.
My dreams are:
1. to be thin
2. to impress my dad by getting into melbourne university school and becoming some sort of accomplished doctor
3. to be happy

I am fat at the moment. I have been eating tons because of eastery and my obese grandmother staying with my family. Two days ago I ate around 1800 calories. I feel like a failure but since I've been eating my usual calorie intake but tommorow I'm starting my "not going to eat for two days" diet.
I want to be 40kg. I want this so bad. I will be happy when I'm 40kg. I will be in control of myself. I will be reborn. I want this so bad.
I will never go under 40kg though. I really don't want to get too sick.
I don't think I'm as commited to anorexia as "normal eaters" percieve anorexics to be.
Maybe I'm just on a fad diet. I hope not. Fad diets make you gain weight. I hope I'm not on a fad diet.
40kg!! THAT IS SUCH A SPLENDID NUMBER!!!!!
FATTY MCFATTY is excited for the no food for two days. I'll let you know how it went. THANKS PEOPLE!!

P.S. I know I'm fucked up. I can't help it. I should no better but I don't want to give in to my brain.

04-16-2009, 06:39 AM
Hiya, I'm Sarah, I have just been referred by the doctors to an eating disorder specialist because I am bulimic and have a lot of other issues with it. I'm here because I am FED UP of food taking over my life, there is so much more to life and I really envy my slim, healthy friends who eat when they are hungry and have the control to stop when they are full, without resorting to binging, purging and excessive dieting. No, I still do not believe that it is right to be OVERweight but a healthy weight without living a tortured life is easy to maintain if you have a healthy relationship with food.....which I definitely don't.
Over the past couple of years I have hurt friends, family and myself because of my pre-occupation with food and dieting and my lack of self control. My weight has fluctuated within about a stone and a half up and down, I have chest pains because of the strain I am putting on myself being sick and I have no self control. I thought I was recovering recently when I managed to lose a stone and a half in 5 weeks....but I soon realised that was just another way of obsessing over food, and although I have kept a stone off I feel I am losing control again. Anyway, sorry to ramble on but I'm not here to fuel my eating disorder I'm here to seek help or advice from anyone that can? Or find someone who can relate to me? Which I'm sure I will find lots :) there is a 22 month waiting list for therapy...so for now I will take this into my own hands.

Thanks, please get in touch!! xxxxxxxx Saz :D

Hi all. I am SO glad to have found a forum that just feels *right* after searching for so long! Very happy to be here and I hope to learn more about everyone :)

As far as my stats go (I hate this part)... 5'7" CW: 116. I don't have a magic number right now. It was 110, but it seems like 6 pounds isn't going to make my thunder thighs evaporate! Mainly I restrict/fast and try to vary my calories (I'm a big believer in the power of 2-4-6-8, though I never use those #s). Sometimes I binge, but my "binges" are what normal people would call a meal. I have a stagnant GI tract (TMI! lol) so I'm emotionally/physically dependant on laxies. Sad day!

If you want to know anything, just ask, or visit my blog... chances are I'm probably ranting about what you want to know there :)

All my affection!!

Hi.
I have just joined as I could really do with some help. I was anorexic on and off for 2 years, starting when I was 14 or so. It started because I caught a virus which made me lose my appetite, then led to me losing a lot of weight. People commented on how much better I looked and it went on from there. I was referred to doctors etc but never hospitalised, in a way I was never quite thin enough.
Now I'm 18, and I'm sinking back into my old ways. I have exams coming up, and am getting stressed. All I want to do is to have the control back that I had, be able to not eat for days rather than giving in every time I think about food.
I am 5ft 2 and currently weigh 106 pounds.
If anyone wants to chat with me, that would be most appreciated,
Thanks.

Hey, just call me Summer. I refuse to give out my real name. I'm here because I've struggled off and on with anorexia nervosa with purging tendencies for three years, almost four. I just want a place where maybe I'll finally be understood.

I've been through recovery, but I find that I'm relapsing quickly. I never thought I'd relapse, but hey, I guess I should learn to expect the unexpected. :p

OK, I guess I should get this over with. I feel like I'm at a bloody AA meeting >_>

My name's Fionnghuala, but just call me Fionn. I'm eighteen (barely) and feel like I have absolutely no control over anything whatsoever. I'm constantly surrounded by people much slimmer and better looking than me, and hear every day how I could 'stand to lose a few pounds'. Without the helpfulness of having a set of bathroom scales in my house, I estimate my weight, considering what I was last September and how different I am now, to be around 10 stone, or 140lbs (63kg). I stand, appallingly enough, at just over 5'3.

I would be more grateful than anyone could believe if others would message me on the best ways to try and lose weight successfully, and how much it would be sensible to lose. Also, how long it will take me to achieve that, because I'm a very impatient person, and not seeing results after two weeks would severely drain my willpower.

Love to you all =]

hiya, i'm zabrina and i'm almost seventeen, i've only just come across this website but have been suffering with appearance and weight problems for quite a long while now. i find it a hard topic to talk to people about and when i do people usually never seem able to understand or are at a loss of what to say, so i thought it'd be nice to meet nice and understanding people for a change (:

Hi everyone. I'm going to be 20 in a month. I have been eating normally for two years now. When I was 17 my life turned upside down. I got in so deep with anorexia I was given a choice go to a therapist and get better or go away and get better. I chose to see the therapist. I pretended to b e better for a while and turned to bulimia and then I guess I got better after half of my college cohort found out that I started purging after every meal. I recently fell back into the ana stuff. In the past two weeks I lost ten pounds and at first I ignored what was happening, So now I guess I am here because I am who I am and need a place to feel safe. I don't really know what else to say or if I said too much but thanks for giving me a place to say it

I would like to lose some wight, actually to look anorexic, but i somehow can't
i was on a detox, wasn't eating for 10 days, but nothing changed, i lost only one kilo, and it came back tomorrow morning :(

I don't know what's wrong with me, I am trying to lose my weight since i was 15, now I am 18 and i am about to lose my will.

Hope you guys will help me, hope I will find here how some of you became anorexic.

Well hi there everyone!

I've been lurking around this site for a few days now, and everyone seems so nice and supportive I decided to join.

I've had problems with depression and self-injury since I was 12, and I guess I've been EDNOS for maybe a couple of years. In the past I've starved, binged, purged, starved again - sometimes I'd restrict really well for weeks, and sometimes it would only be a day or two before I broke down. In the last 3-4 months though, I've been studying hard for my exams and the stress of that, plus the need to maintain decent energy levels to focus in class, has resulted in my weight ballooning to its highest ever point. This needs to change. I need to regain my control. And I need to be able to talk to people who understand, so that I don't get really depressed and end up hurting myself. That's why I'm here! Looking forward to talking to you people :)

P.S. As you can see, my username is from the Radiohead song Creep, but you can call me Janey if you like.

So, hi, i'm new here. I don't even speak english, so please, be nice if i make a mistake, well, i'll probably do a lot of mistakes so.. yah, i live in canada, in the province of quebec, and i'm 16. I found this forum by google, and i just loved it. I do not have anorexia or bulimia, but i know there's something wrong with me, like, i have the thoughts of an anorexic, and i'm restricting a lot, but i'm not loosing that much, and i am not sick at all. But..ya, i am always thinking about food, and i'm really obsessed with loosing weight, so yeah, i'll probably open a thread where i am going to talk about me and my life of everyday with food, like i saw a lot of people doing that in here.

Hey everyone. I'll just call myself Susie Q for now. I'm 16 years old and I'm new here but definitely not new to the world of eating disorders. For a longer bio, check out my blog: To view links or images in this forum your post count must be 1 or greater. You currently have 0 posts.

I've had anorexia and bulimia for about a year now. My bulimia is more dormant but my anorexia is definitely active. I struggled with Binge ED when I was younger for the majority of my childhood years and tend to think I also have an EDNOS. I've never been to treatment, I've never seen a psychiatrist or therapist etc though I should. I tend to think I also suffer from depression and anxiety disorder but those have never been diagnosed either. But with family history and past events, I wouldn't be surprised. Anyway, I'm here basically to offer support and receive some if needed. Hope everyone is safe and well!

Haha and yes, my username was supposed to be "nothinswrong" but due to how early it is in the morning, I made a typo and didn't notice before it was permanent. I cursed at myself for about ten minutes and then just decided it wasn't that important.

Hey, this is Kristen. I have a best friend who recnetly developed bulimia and she let me read her journal. Well, for the past 2 or so years, I looked in the mirror and only saw fat. I tried to get myself to purge but I couldn't bring myself to do it. Then I tried to skip meals but that lasted for a week. So now I use this thing my friend thought of called the chew and spit technique. You just chew your food and spit it out. It worked cuz I lost 4 lbs. last week!! Would you say I have an ED??

DevinPonders
06-24-2009, 10:30 AM
i would say that you're trying to develop an ED, in order to lose weight. if you really want to lose weight diet and exercise. having an ED is not something you want, it ruins your life, your relationships, everything. all you can think about all day everyday is weight. changing clothes 9x every morning because you look fat in everything. nothing is good enough until it's only skin streched over bone. you look down at a plate of food and instead of seeing a meal, you see calories, fat percentage, fat content, carbs ect. everyday is a stuggle not to purge to eat like a normal person but the fear of gaining weight is to much to handle so you do purge or skip and you disappoint/hurt the people who care about you. please don't try to purge or skip, you may lose weight now and feel good about it but it'll only hurt you in the long run.

Hello! My name is candy, i just turned 18, and am so happy i found this site. I have been struggling with what i guess you could call anorxia since i was 13. Since i was a child i have been horribly self conciouse. I grew up with two over weight parents and an over weight sister, and the rest of my familly telling me never to be like them. In the past year i have lost over 40 pounds, but dont feel like i have lost any weight. I feel horrified when i see my body in a mirror, or picture..I never know what to do. I found this site tonight, and i finally feel that theres others out there that understand.. well i really dont know what else to say so, yea..

Age:19
Height: 5'4ish
Current Weight: 110ish?
Lowest Weight (goal weight): 100 lbs

I found this site today and think it's great to be able to connect with people that actually understand what you're going through. It can be hell sometimes not having anyone around to talk about this stuff with..(especially if you're like me and hide it). I recently finished my first year of college. (lost a little bit of control and gained slightly:()
I fit in the category of EDNOS.

So if anyone wants an optimistic motivation buddy or just someone to talk to about whatever, I'm here.

Good luck to everyone :]

Hello ... why did I join?? well I have been battling with anorexia and bulimia for almost 10 years soon as I get control of one I am controlled by the other ...stuck in the endless spiral of gaining and losing weight. I'm 22 and have clinical depression also... I hate myself and my life so came here hoping to chat to people who understand without being judged or told to put weight on. Right now I am bulimic ...I hate the embarrassment and constanly hiding to vomit... I'm much happier when Ana takes over so hoping to make the change. I'm 8 stone now which for me is huge I'm 5 foot 6 :((

Hi everyone im Ty from va. im 18 and have suffered from mia for the past 4 years. Last August I was hospitalized. Im looked down on in my family, from my parents mostly for having this disease. My parents are furious with me. Im black and bulimia and anorexia is just implausible to them. I have felt so alone these past few years and really am just looking for a place to vent with people who are understanding and who can empathize with me. I feel like such an outcast. I am so greatful i found a legit ana/mia site. I almost gave up!
Thanks for listening

The last time i checked i weighed 121 pounds (im 5'7) but now im too scared to weigh myself atm as i think in the last month ive put on alot of weight (i dunmped my bf around this time because of how i feel about myself, as he was so skinny it made me feel fatter, im not proud of what i did) Ive just lost control recently and feel so alone, i dont want to be chubby again :[

hey there,
so ive been dealing with bulimia for about 2 yrs now and its driving me crazy. At first it started as just going to the gym and being really careful about what I was eating but now. Then for the winter I slowed down on the gym but was eating worse and worse and throwing up more and more. Now Im trying to get back at the gym and really cut down on the bingeing and purging. But i still have a lot of weight I'd like to loose. This is the heaviest I have been in 2.5 yrs and I dont know how to get rid of it. I decided to join this group because I want a place where people wont judge be just cause I want to loose some weight. Also Im looking for people who will support when Im feeling I really need to eat but dont want to.

I've been posting here for a while but never officially introduced myself. I'm 29 years old and will be 30 this September. I started restricting when I was a freshman in high school and realized that the high carb dinners prior to my track meets were catching up on me.

I was always the little girl, or the skinny girl, or the track star and when I started to gain weight my coach actually pulled me aside and basically said that I was gaining too much weight.

From then on I was self conscious of my weight. I hit a low when I was living in VA and got down to 122 lb. I was happy with the weight loss but my husband found out and threatened to tell my parents so I started eating again and slowly ignored that I felt fat all the time. I actually got up to 160 in college and then back down to 133 between college and moving to VA.

Just this summer I fell back into old ana/ednos habits and have gone from 153 to 139 in about 1 - 1 1/2 months. I don't know anyone personally with an ed and am looking for buddies so feel free to IM or email or whatever.

Hi im Jade, i dont have anorexia yet but im close. I hate myself so much right now for letting myself get so big, im glad there are still places where people can come and get things like this off their chest. I cant talk to anyone about this because my friends dont understand and never will. :(

08-13-2009, 04:10 PM
Hi, My name is Sealeigh and I am 21 years old. I have been struggling with anorexia and bulimia for years. In November 2007 I was hospitalized because my weight had dropped below 100 pounds and I was diagonosed with SMA syndrome after a gummy worm blocked the pipes leading into my stomach. Since then my weight has yo yo-ed like crazy and I starting purging to control it.

So basically I have been really struggling over the past year (I also broke up with my boyfriend resently) and I need some support. I have alot of anxiety issues and when I try to talk to my family, they pretty much tell me to snap out of it... it sucks. I have never posted anything on an online forum of any kind, so I don't really know what to expect but if anyone is out there who understands what I'm talking about, I would love to hear from you :)

Hi all,
My heaviest was 63kgs or 140lbs when i started dieting i used tony ferguson to shed 7kg i was 56kgs or 123lbs. 3 days ago i limited my diet to 400cal a day (im using a calorie balance tracker i downloaded of the net it is great cos i can se exactly what i am taking in) and now i am 54kgs so i have lost 2kgs in 3 days. I just want to get down to 48-49kgs for my bff's 21st. Im eating less than 400cal a day but taking multivitamins and detoxifying nutrients such as dandelion. Any tips would be great i will do what ever it takes but i dont want to deprive my hair and skin of the nutrients it needs last thing i need is to be bald. Oh yeah and everyone should checkout RAW DIETS it is the best thing they loose so much weight sooooo fast...

Hello, nice to be here. My name is Sam I'm 19 and I'm anorexic.

I've been this way on and off for a couple years. I was at my highest weight at 165.:mad: That number set me into ana in the first place. I purged for a couple months in the begining but right now I'm all ana.
I had some binging trouble resently after a bad break up, but now I've been fasting for about a week and have lost eight pounds. I'm 130 now and still losing.:D

I'm so glad to finally have a site to talk to other people who are like me and understand. My family just tells me how stupid I am all the time.

Feel free to pm me. I'm here to tak and to listen.;)

Hi.

Just came across this forum, never really thought to find something like it before. Historically I alternated between anorexia and I guess normal eating habits but now I find I've become bulimic somehow and hate it intensely. Being unable to maintain control makes me hate myself. My friends make fun of me my family worries about me, neither helps. I want to be thin again. On work days I am fine I can eat very little but all hell breaks loose on my days off so I never make any progress just recover from the slips.

Cruising the forum I see mentions of 2468 and ABC diets... I haven't come across them outlined yet. So I guess I'll keep looking. Just stopped to introduce myself and put out a request for help to get back on track and hopefully find some support!!

Stats:

Hi! I'm here because I have Anorexia and I was hoping to get support and possibly an Ana buddy. I'm kind of alone in this. I was hoping that someone here would be able to help me out and support me? Well I'm glad I joined :D Oh! And I was also looking for maybe some tips. Normally when I skip meals I get headaches. Is there any way to not eat without getting headaches? :confused:

~butterfly~
09-04-2009, 11:27 PM
I'm 14. My name's clover. I'm here cuz i've been having so many ana tendencies lately. Like...I eat 500 cals and I seriously want to throw up and it makes me feel like I'm a piece of **** and not worth anything. :( And my sister is so skinny, and everybody loves her...so i guess it just sorta happened...i've lost 8 pounds or something recently, so I feel better, but I'm really glad I have this site. It feels so much better to be pure and empty inside, and this site will help me with that.

Oh...(i'm sorry I forgot you username) but sometimes drinking tea helps me with headaches...but sometimes it just makes them worse. So I guess its not the best advice, but it helps to try and relax and focus on something. Meditating is good for this.

Just a bit about me?

I'm nineteen. I started out Bulimic, but wasn't getting what I wanted, so I started fasting. It's been 5 years since it all started. My low weight was at 105 lbs, when I was 15. I was sent to rehab after I passed out at the top of a flight of stairs and fell the whole way down. My goal weight is 82, and my current is 130. I have a long way to go. I still live with my mom, so I still have the trouble of trying not to be discovered. I'm looking for an intelligent person to talk to about this and about regular life. Sort of a pen pal, not just an "Ana Buddy."

Hello everyone

Um, I'm not new to EDs but recently it's hit me hard. Last year I lost about 20 pounds but I put it back on when people started telling me I had a problem (because I really don't want a problem). But the thing is now that I can't stop. It started with a diet to lose my holiday weight and now the whole things has skyrocketed where on some days I can't have more than 300 calories, sometimes 500 calories... It's just so crazy, and I can't tell anyone because I would feel so humiliated and ashamed if anyone I knew knew that...

I also started cutting in January, and no one knows about that either... so basically I'm just fucked up and I need to vent to people I don't personally know... people who understand.

Thanks

I'm looking for a buddy, I guess. No one I know understands what's going on, and it's really hard to keep going sometimes. I'm ana with some mia tendencies, although I've kind of stopped that now. I think. I live with my family, so it's pretty hard to hide anything, but I try. I'm looking for someone who can be more than just an "ana buddy", someone I can talk to about everything else, too. anywho, here are some stats;

AGE: 15
Height: 5'5
HW: 120
CW: 106
GW: 95

Hi i'm Amanda. I live in the north of England (yorkshire)
I've got horribly low self esteem, i've been worryied about my body image for years, but this month it's been the worst! The ana started about 2 weeks ago, i have a phobia of throwing up so that rules out Bulimia! :) x

Hey, I'm Julia.

I don't really know what to say, but yea... I've had an eating disorder for a couple years now, but have been fighting it very hard so I can keep my family and friends happy. But, I just can't fo it anymore. I feel so horrible about myself and my weight and everything, I basically want to die. I've begun to diet and excercise a lot more recently. I believe I'm back to my old ways and I was just looking for a little support instead of the chastisement I receive from everyone else in my life.

I would really appreciate any help you can possibly give me.

Hi everyone! My name is Magdalena, some people call me maddie for short. :) I`m 18 and live in Poland atm. Mia came along when i was 15 and went on for about 18 months.. I was OK for a while but it just wasn`t working out.
I don`t really overeat.. I probably wouldnt eat, but I still live with my family and they make sure i do..
So the reason I`m here is to talk about how I feel and share support, i guess, some friends that are dealing with the same problems :) I`d really like to just get it out of myself, thats why I`m glad I found this forum, so maybe I wont have to deal with this on my own ^^

Hello,
Let my name be Mimm in here. I am from Estonia, so excuse my poor English. I have been weird about food for few years now. I am just starting my treatment, so I really have no idea what is REALLY wrong with me or how serious it is. But what I know is that food controls my life and most of all - my mind. Most probably I have atypical bulimia.
I hope to find people who would understand me because there is almost nobody in my life I could tell about what is going on with me.

I'm 16 and very new to all of this really.
I'm kinda glad I found this forum. I'm here because I am desperate to lose weight :( I am not overweight, but I just feel like shit constantly :( And wish I could look differently. I don't think I could resort to making myself throw up constantly, but I'd like to stop eating, so really I am just looking for some general and good advice really.
Also I was looking through some of the other forums, and this may sound really stupid but like I said I am new to all of this, but what do some of the abreviations mean, like HW ect.. ?

Hi, I'm Cheyenne, and I'm here because I want help. I'm in theatre, and currently am in Rocky Horror, where one dances around on stage in sexy underclothings. I've been going to school, doing homework for 2 hours, and then going to Rocky practice and back home to sleep. Rocky practice can be pretty good exercise, especially when it's a dance rehersal, and I love coming home sweaty, tired, and sore from them. But, unfotunetly, this schedual has made me slightly stressed out, and I am a bit of a stress eater... I've gained 10 pounds over the last month, and I feel horrid. I'm at 130lbs currently, and I want to be 100. I'm a swimmer, and I love that feeling of working out and being so tired afterwards, but I simply don't have enough time in the day to keep my weight down. I also don't have much willpower alone, and I was hoping to get some support from people trying to stay away from food. I want to learn how to count calories, and little tips and tricks for everything. I want to make friends that will support me and not judge me for what I am doing. I want to support others with their struggles of their self-image. I want to loose 30 pounds, and I want people to yell at me online when I don't stick to my diet. I want help, and I hope I can get it here.

19, and im a student SaLT (yep even the occupation is fixated on food!) Have been strictly counting calories (but eating lots - of the low calorie stuff!) for years. But this summer i got sucked in by temptation and started compulsively overeating. Put on a stone over the summer. I hate it. It feels as if someone takes over me, and i cant stop myself. I'm here to kick start myself into being me again.

Then it gradually became mia
Sorry if i'm boring you!
I just joined this site, mainly to get support because my dad likes to tell me how much i ruined his life and my mum just doesn't care.

i'm rebeca. i've been mia since the 8th grade, although i do that much less lately. i pretty much just restrict now, since throwing up got painful, and the binging and purging just made me feel gross all the time. i still throw up after binges, but mainly i just don't eat..

anyways i'm just so happy to have a place where people will understand all this :)

hi my name is sam. im 16 and from CT, USA. i have had bulimia for about 2 years now. my parents found out this summer and gave me an ultimatum: either stop cold turkey or get help. i said i would stop, but i didnt really. did they really think i could stop on my own? sometimes i wish i could just get help, but mias always been there for me. i cant ever leave. i cant get fat. i wish i could just stop eating. i have no control though. i hate myself 24/7 and sometimes i think that everything would be much easier if i were dead. it would be. i cut myself, sometimes wishing that everything would just go away. all the pain and suffering would be gone. but i cant ever just go deep enough in my skin. except for the last time i did it, i couldnt stop bleeding. i just went to bed hoping i wouldnt get up. sometimes i want to take all the pills in my house. i dont want to feel this way but i do. this is prob killing my parents. if they knew everything that was going on in my mind, i dont know what they would do. my boyfriend know whats going on with me. he wants me to gain weight. i told him i refuse to. he said he would leave me if i dont. i told him i will, but the truth is that ive been working out more than before. i cant gain weight and im not going to. i love him but i refuse to do it. im extremely glad i found this site! im soo happy i have found a place where there are many people like me and we can all support eachother. i dont know any of you but i love you all! i hope to get to know you guyss!

And in the last month i have been maxing it- the not eating, excersising etc. something in my life is making me v unhappy, but i 'll not bore ya.
As of today i am 165lbs, or in and around 75-ish. my bmi is 26.7. my highest weight ever was about 5 yrs ago due to a psych med- i was 215lbs. already starting to fit into clothes that i had put away as it depressed me to look at them.

okayy, so like...

since the age of six, i believe it was, i have been rather obsessed, to say the least, with image, and weight, etc....

i'm now 16 and i can't even describe how it controls my life.

this sounds so wierd, i don't know if i have an eating disorder or not.

i go through phazes of barely eating, and all i know is that i am so much happier when its like that. I lost a stone recently, and i was so happy.

but i ruined it, because i have a horrible attitude towards my ability to 'keep it up'. I convince myself that im not stong enough to do it :/

so, on my 16th birthday i ruined everything, then became to scared to weigh myself and since then (september 25th), ive ruined it almost every day.

i weighed myself the other day. and now i think i am around 135 pounds. Is that awful, for a 5"3 16 year old????
i need someone to tell me.

anyway, that just made me even more unhappy, and now im utterly sick, and i am GOING to change

for the FINAL time.
thats why i came looking for somewhere i could find people to talk to.

so yeh,,,, ive pretty much told the world my life story (sorry about that).

ermm, i would really appreciate some help/advice

thanks guyss

Hi, I am new...
I guess I am here because lately I have felt so alone. I have this secret, I do what I can to hide it but sometimes I really wish I could talk about what is going on.
I have various mental-health 'issues', which seem to overshadow my ana/mia tendancies. I guess this is good because it means people assume I have no appetite due to medication or whatever.
I feel like I am at the end of my tether.

Hi there guys!
Im Robin, hence very unoriginal username!!!
Im from Glasgow, currently studying anatomy there.
I'm 19, and i have been both anorexic and bulimic within the last 7years. I am currently weighin in at about 135lbs. But my low weight is 105lbs. And i want to get back there. After my anorexia i completely went under and binged badly for 2years. I purge regularly, ie every day atleast 5times. This is not something i do on purpose orr am happy about. It just happens as i do not need to use my hands/fingers. obviously i am secretly happy about it.
Trying to return to my anorexia if im being honest. lost 7lbs this week and plan to continue. cannot wait to speak to everyone.

i'm not one for words, so i'm gonna keep it short and sweet.

Hey everyone,

My name's Liz (22yrs) and I'm so happy I've found this site. It seems like a site that legitimately accepts sufferers who are at all stages of Eds. This really makes me feel accepted, since we all know that with any ED, you constantly fall and need some encouragement.

I started struggling with EDs in high school when I was on the cross country/track team. I moved to Italy with my family in high school and started to get terrible acne. I would spend hours in my room mutilating my face by picking things that weren't even there. Because I thought I couldn't control my acne, I turned towards eating. My low point was going to the doctors, and seeing that at 5'4", I weighed 125. That started my anorexia. College came, and I battled anorexia until junior year when I discovered the possibilities of bulimia. I have suffered from on and off mixes of bulimia and anorexia since then. Currently, I've been under a lot of stress, and have turned again towards purging to alleviate all the stress. My goal is to ditch bulimia for good and have controlled eating one day that's healthy. But, I have a sugar weak spot and would gladly substitute green foods for anything sugary. Which as you can assume, leads to bingeing and purging. It's a process, as you all know.

I'm looking to ditch mia for good and only be ana... and any one out there who could support me with ana and CONTROL/discipline would be great!

Hello everyone,

I am a 16 year old girl, currently living in Paris. I am ashamed to tell you that I am 1,65 m (5'5'') and weight 56 kgs (123 lbs). My goal, for now, is to reach 50 kgs (110 lbs). My "new" eating habits started a few months ago and I was a fool in thinking that I could share my problems with my closest friends, which I ended up loosing.
I have learned my lesson and that is why I am here, today. I am not looking for friends right now, maybe someday but for now I just want some support. I need help and I am willing to help, too. So, please, if you are about my age or are in the same situation as me, feel free to add me.

Thank you for your time.

A.R.C.

This is my third post, oops.

Excited to find this forum, recently started therapy. Ready to make progress.

I'm here to share the information I learn through therapy and provide insight into my own recover plan.

Right now, this is focused on identifying binge, purge, and body image triggers.

I'd like to learn what triggers others, too.


My hometown is Ferndale, MI and I'm a 26 years old aspiring social work student.

Love!:p

Hi all,

I am happy to have found this website. Most of the places I search for on the internet are extremely unhelpful - a person asked a question about "How do I make myself throw up" and the only answers they get are "you are stupid for wanting to throw up!"

My name is Ruth, I'm 22 years old and currently 195lbs. My highest weight was 270, and I've been as low as 175. I've just recently jumped back up to 195, so naturally I'm pretty terrified of ending up back as high as I used to be... which is why I've joined this forum.

I have struggled with horrible weight my entire life, and I am taking control, no matter what. I know and understand the health risks of bulimia, but I also know and understand those of because overweight... and I chose this path. I accept responsibility for what ever happens to me, because it's my life and my choice!

Hey, I'm Rachel and I'm 17 years old and live in the UK. I came here because I'm looking for a texting buddy in the UK. (Everyone seems to be in America!) I'm currently 11st 9lbs (I think that's about...165lbs?) and I want to loose a stone and 9lbs. I'm 5ft 9 btw :D
I'm starting ana boot camp tomorrow, like I said I'd love a texting buddy as my motivation seems to fluctuate on it's own :(
Have an awesome day :)

:DOh, why am I here? Thats a big question for me to answer... but for once I have the tools to answer properly. I am here because I can't speak to anyone but my diary about my problems. I can't talk to other people and help them with theirs... and most importantly because I need help in the most hands-off way imaginable. I just need something inanimate that I can speak with in a composed manner so that I can work through my cravings, binges, purges, fasts, and exercise. I need something to take my mind off the walls in my room late at night... I need so much and I hatemyself for it. So when I need, I want to have something that seems less materialized and more ethereal so that I don't have to face up with my wants and needs. Agh I hate having to be so needy.
And I'm here because I'm fat and worthless. And I want, need, to be thin. Shocker, I know. I'm so fat. I can't even fit into some of my jeans from a week ago. I've put on 15 pounds since the summer.... I can't bear it. I just need a place to vent.... and to help others. Helping other people throught their eating issues lets me vent some of my own issues more effectively.
so thank you for moderating this and keeping in running, I need you to be here.

Hi,
I have been reading threads on this forum for a few weeks now, and have decided to finally join. I am 22 years old. I have found just from reading so many inspiring people, and also have seen myself in them.
I have always had weight issues, and always gone through extremes of binge eating and then not eating. I would go through these periods and then return to normal eating habits. Not until recently have I started being more extreme. Earlier this year I began eating only health foods, allowing myself to eat at most 1200 calories a day, exercising every day for at least 3 to 4 hours a day, and on top of that working 14 hours a day. I barely slept, but I had never felt better. Then I had to stop. I got sick from ant allergies. Lol, I am so allergic to an ant bite that it could kill me. It caused my entire back to swell up, and I still have scars from it. My doctor forbid me to exercise, or do anything that would cause sweating. Thus, I started with the bad habits again. I gained the 15 pounds I had lost, back again. I was disgusted. I decided to try and loose weight again. So I started eating healthy, and everything. I started to limit myself more and more. I stopped really thinking about it. I began to replace two meals a day with baby food, and only eating dinner. Then I started feeling that was too much. I have recently started fasting on some days, without even intending to. I had realized that I definitely had succumbed to an ed when one day all I ate was half a yogurt the entire day, and felt guilty about it. At the same time I am proud of myself, I have lost 28 pounds in a little more then a month. :D
Anyways...that was probably way more then y'all cared to know.

Height: 5'10
SW: 245 Disgusting :(

Hey, everyone! I hope to meet you all and make friends. ^^

I'm here because I've had disordered eating for years, and in the past few (2~3) years it's only gotten worse. I starve, over-exercise, etc. I just...have some things going on in my life I have a hard time dealing with, and it makes my food relationship more stressed.

Anyway, I just like the idea of having people to talk to who know what I'm talking about. ^^;

Hi. I went through a period of "recovery" from age 18-21 and am currently relapsing. I was anorexic from the age of 11/12 with bouts of non-purging/exercise bulimia mixed in.

Just looking for a place to vent from people who understand. I'm not PRO eating disorder, but I do think a lot of my rationalizations for what I do and why I do it are very logical and it pisses me off that mainstream medicine disses everything I say.

for example: the body uses most of its energy doing two things: digesting and emoting. this is why when a normal person is depressed, the appetite goes down to focus on the brain. When everything is great and emotions are being processed, the appetite comes back. If you're going through a hard time in life and need to process your emotions, why cover it up with food??? I think fasting is very beneficial psychologically.

I'm a restrictive type anorexic. I'm currently at a "healthy" weight. My lowest weight was 105 at 5'7 and my highest weight is what I'm at now, which is a "healthy" BMI of 21. I don't really do goal weights, my goal was always to just be as small and invisible as possible.

Hi Everyone my name is Sally, I have been suffering with Anorexia / Bullimia,
for 9 years now, I'm 17 1/2 & I've been dealing with this since age 9
I've recovered & relapsed, I thought it would be good for myself to join a forum where people understand what you're going through & to get some support.

Hey. I'm Marie, 15 years old.
I am not diagnosed with any ED, and if anyone accused me of having one I'd deny it. But for about 3 years now I have been frequently starving myself, or purging after meals.
Right now I'm on a 300 kcal per day diet, but I still can't seem to lose weight..
Even meals with just 20 calories seem too much x)
Also, I have been a self-harmer for 3 years.

I'm basically here just to talk to people, since most of the people I know either are completely blind, decide to ignore everything, or simply don't care.

Hello,
I'm Tiffany, and I'm more of a 'mia beginner'... if you'd call it that. I'm searching for what's really more right for me- be it ana or mia.

I'm a married mother of three little boys at only 20 years of age. My youth doesn't quite help me keep up with them and myself day to day. Obviously, my self-image has gotten a bit out of hand recently. I'm not too happy with my reflection, and aim to do something about it.

I'm not often able to go to the gym, and running around on a daily basis makes it difficult to prepare a healthy meal. (Not that I'm a fast food junkie- I do my best, but lack of time makes it so difficult.)

I don't want to be super model skinny, but I want to be happy with how I look again. It's not such a turn on when you notice your husband looking toward your middle during intimate moments. I want to be confident that he's looking there and liking what he sees. And if not for him, for myself. I hate to sound like I'm throwing myself a pity party, but life just goes so much easier when you're confident in the way you look.

From the time I was 14 I found myself purging after meals to maintain my figure. I suppose I was pretty good about hiding it. The only person who ever suspected was my mother- she'd been there and knew the signs. Afterward, I became rather athletic and recovered. I've been extremely happy with myself up until these past few years. Yet again, I've found myself on my knees...

...I kind of went off on a tangent. Anyhow, it'd be wonderful to get some support and have someone to talk to about all of this, as I'm keeping my little secret to myself.

Thanks!

Hello, my name is Sean. (Yes, I'm a girl.) I've been suffering from body issues for about four years now, and my weight has been fluctuating a lot. Sometimes I get really depressed and anxious. I also sometimes overeat and undereat, which causes my weight fluctuations. I'm trying to lose weight and would like some support. I just stumbled upon this forum today and am glad that it will be a place where I can get help and support from others. Hopefully, I can make some friends here too. :)
