I have flirted with disordered eating behavior... help?



I hate my body, like, its horrible. I'm 205 or so, only 5'2", I'm obese. That word is horrible. Those that will say rude things, it won't do any good. I'm sure I've been told worse. If not, it'll be motivation.
Anyway, I take medicine for diabetes, am on birth control, depression meds and adderall. I first started depakote, for bipolar at 13, right at puberty, and I'm not bipolar. They mistook ADD and female moodiness for bipolar. The depakote made me gain 80lbs. I was 117, then I blew up within one year, to 190-something and have stayed that way from August '04 until now. I haven't dipped below 180, maybe 170 in almost 3 years.
I don't know what the hell to do. Like I said, I've tried not eating, have binged and purged, have restricted i.e. less than 900 calories per day, and now I am just eating every damn thing in site, and it doesn't matter if I'm hungry or not. I can only wear one pair of jeans and can't find any more. I'm a whale. I'm tempted to wear gangster style guy clothes.

Hey, its okay. Its sounds like you should first seek counseling or psychologist to talk about this one-on-one with professional help, and also talk to a dietition on how to lose weight in a healthy way. It won't come off over night, but you'll get lasting results if you start having a healthy attitude about food and exersizing regularly. In the mean time, don't starve yourself, you'll just start the cycle back up again. Focus on avoiding junkfood which triggers binges, and instead eat healthy foods like fruits and vegitables (get at least five servings a day), lean meats, eggs, whole grains, and healthy fats.
eat fruit and vegetable, jogging for an hour daily

First of all give yourself a break and take some deep breaths. Try the weight watchers program. Sounds like the weekly support groups would be helpful. Until you take some of the pressure off yourself you aren't going to have much success
Ok listen, When I was little I thought I was fat so I got onto starving myself! That didnt work at all! What you need to do is excersize each day and dont eat to much sugar or salt! In other words watch your calories!! Try not to sit alot if you do remind yourself to get up and go excersize
ME! and my family
Ok hun. You need to check into this program called provida at provida.com called makeover in 6 weeks. It is a diet program, but you eat what you have at home only you eat 6 times a day. I used to be anorexic and bulimic when I was younger, as I got older, I just didn't eat but once a day. Now my body hates to lose weight but this program has worked for both my husband and myself. The exercise are easy and only take around 18 minutes a day. It is hard to change what you eat and how much, but you are strong from your words, so don't let it get you down. Good luck
You need to get yourself on a sensible diet and stick with it. Don't plan on loosing a million pounds in one week.. it doesn't work. You should also get yourself on an excercise program. Weight Watchers really works for me and I'm sure it could work for you too. COME ON! YOU CAN DO IT!! Set yourself a goal.. get yourself a journal. Get yourself some online support!! By this time next year you will want to go out and flaunt your new body so bad that you won't even be sitting at this computer to tell us about it! DO IT.. DO IT.. DO IT!!!!!!
