I don't have an eating disorder do i? |
Okay, well a while back one of my friends confronted me about haveing and eating disorder. I have recently lost about 20 pounds in about 8 weeks and currently weigh 131lbs and I'm 5'9''. i don't thnk I have an eating disorder but I'm not sure. no one's every really told me about them. I usually skip breakfeast because there's just no time, then i skip lunch cause I'm doin homework. once i get home i usually just go to sleep. I really don't like the feeling of being full so I try my hardest to make sure I never experience it. This is normal....isn't? What's normal for you is not going to be normal for other people. Just make sure you eat something everyday. I'm the same way. I don't eat breakfast or lunch, only dinner. But I don't have an eating disorder. 100% normal. Eating is so overrated. When you look like a bag of bones, then you'll know you're fine. Keep it up. sweetie.....no its not normal....i suffered from anorexia......i know u dont realize u have a problem, but its important that u get help...tell someone u trust....Jesus loves u and I am praying 4 u! Your eating habits aren't very healthy, that's for sure. It's possible to eat reasonably even with a hectic schedule. Try keeping a few granola bars with you, and if you're really pressed for time, drink a can of Ensure (store brands - like Walgreen's - are cheaper and just as tasty). Your weight and height mean nothing if you aren't FIT AND HEALTHY. It probably wouldn't be a bad idea to have a physical, and maybe speak with a nutritionist to see how you can get a better handle on your dietary gaps. Skipping breakfast isn't smart, I can tell you that much. Your brain cannot function to its fullest capacity without fuel. Try getting up even 10 minutes earlier and have a glass of orange juice and a piece of whole-grain bread/toast, or a bagel. The weight you have lost will come back if you aren't more sensible about your overall health. At the rate you're going, you won't have to worry about this for long. In fact, you won't have to worry about anything. You'll be dead. The fact that you're tired so often in the middle of the day probably indicates that your body needs some more nutrition for energy. 131 is slender but not beyond the pale if you have a naturally fast metabolism. 20 lbs in eight weeks is too fast if you were already at a relatively healthy weight. One meal a day isn't healthy by any stretch of the imagination. I think you may be confusing full and stuffed being full is just not being hungry (the absence of sensation) but if you truly are always hungry that's an issue Your motives don't seem to indicate an eating disorder from your question BUT you do seem to have nutrition issues and I would highly recommend you see a nutritionist post haste I'm not a big "eater" however I know how much protein, carbs, and fats I need in my diet to do what I do. Because my levels are so high I graze all day. Now you said you are a swimmer, so unless you do have an eating disorder you must know what you need to sustain at a level to compete. I get my friends and husband say that I have a eating disorder because of not eating meals...but I have at least 80 grams of protein a day, to do that in a meal, I would be SICK. So if you do have a disorder please get help, if you are doing what you have to....keep up the good work |
