Do I have the start of an eating disorder?



Since the middle of last year, I have been obsessed with my weight...it started off just hating myself, wishing I could be thinner but having no self-control to do so. Then I got motivated and lost 6 pounds in 2 weeks. After that, I haven't been weighed so I don't know what I weigh now - we don't even own a scale! I have been on and off several diets since, somne going as low as 500-650 calories a day. It's like I am constantly thinking about food and if I am not on a diet I feel horrible about myself and think I am very fat. I have a healthy weight - 125 and 5 foot 6 - but I hate the way I look and always want to weigh less. Eventually I would like to be 110 pounds...this isn't unhealthy either, though. I have taken tests on the internet andthey say I have (quote quote) anorexic tendencies...but how do I say these tests aren't full of crap?

Here is what you could do, just have a list of everything you eat and what exercises you do to burn the calories. http://www.sparkpeople.com/ Also just eat 5 or 6 times a day of small meals. Make sure they are healthy and get the amino acids. Just do things correctly and safely. Take in a little over 1200 calories a day at least. I am not talking about a bowl of ice cream and some candy bars. Healthy natural foods. Turn your obsession healthy as possible.
anorexia nervosa as well as other eating disorders are mental diseases and first of all you have look for a help of psychiatrist.
I think you need some counseling and working out will help as well - if you gain some muscle your body will look a lot different.
I have the same problem and weight the same ( I'm just shorter) it is like the piece of pie tastes so good then after your done it is like all you think about and you feel like the biggest person you know! OMG finally someone like me lol. OK well i think we both have the starts of an eating disorder... what helps?? eating healthy. Not having all the fatty food, eating stuff like fruit with cottage cheese and salads. I know it is hard to live this way but I'm a vegetarian so it isn't that hard for me :) gl i hope you get better
my lucky life.... just not so lucky
