Start Again!!!

[ella_bella]

Right guys! I chose the wrong week last week to start a fast what with my sis turning 16 an all!! so i'm starting again this week. I didn't gain anything last week and I lost 2lbs before my sister's party but that's not good enough. I broke my fast and had a hot dog :( then reallly regreted it.

I'm starting again today, made sure my diary is completely free for at least the next 7 days. wish me luck! i want 2 lose at least 10lbs this week.

good luck girl!!! this week is going to be such a tough week for me, because its my birthday today the 15th, and then sunday is a family party and being around friends and stuff but i'm getting so sick of getting asked why i'm not eating... errr but here is a good question.... why do i weigh dramatically less than what i did the previous day when i drink, alcohol that is.... anyone know?

um okay i am no scientist but have taken some classes and well know exactly what you are talking about....
the reason why you feel like you have lost weight and may even be able to see a difference is because alcohol works as a diuretic meaning that it wants to get out of your system as fast as possible and will take alot of your other fluids in your body with it. so you are losing water weight over night.... but the shitty thing is that when you wake up and get going for day and have that first glass of water that most likely will be stored back in your body... but the key is to keep moving all day even if you feel like hell from the night before and drink tons of water cuz then you will flush out even more eventually...

i hope that makes since. good luck.

Alcohol makes me forget about the reasons why I'm ana/ednos in the first place! I find it's easier to work off alcohol than food!:)

no seriously, drinking helps so much! i don't think about food or eating, and time just passes by, and i can finally go to bed. it pretty much seems like alcoholism but its really not, so please don't think it is lol or that i'm an alcoholic.

True! it's only a few and it doesn't take much and it's not every day lol! Mostly weekends cause when I'm not at work I have nothing else to think about!

I understand why you drink---really I do. I just don't like the post drinking work outs. My Dr proscribed me Xanax and I take that at night so I don't have to lie awake at night--passing the time by grabbing my hip bones or pinching my fat:)
