I was also told i was fat by my mother. Since then i'v been dieting of and on never quite reaching anorexia but loosing enough weight to keep myself satisfied. But now my habits are changing. i'll go a day without eating and eat barely anything the next. every type of food except fruit repulses me. If im forced to eat i will throw up some if not all of the food, im starting to feel weak and my parents have noticed i am becomming listless. Im loosing a pound if not more a day, currently i am 5 foot 1/4 inch and 96 pounds, my BMI is 18.7, i was around 100 pounds 3 or 4 days ago. My eating habits make me feel somehow superior to those who have teased me about my weight in the past. Im not scared to become an anorexic; but id like to know if i am


im overweight, can u pls advice me how do i start eating less?
thank u.


Alright here is my advice try(if you can) to eat a little something every hour and a half to speed up metabolism. If you cant do this just eat as many small or medium size meels a day. You never want to eat a ton and make your stomach feel stretched, the food sits there and your body dositn need it so it stores it has fat.
Foods you should avoide. Are any foods that are high in fat, some fat is fine but when you get alot of fat like butter fast food etc it is unhealthy. Exercise is a very good thing for losing weight try to run swim or do anything that is cardovascular. I always say eating right keeps weight off and exercise loses it. (of course eating healthy/right will cause you to lose some weight)
Never eat before you go to bed.

i know the feeling- i see others eating and think i'm so much better than them...

but hun- you said you're not scared to become anorexic- you should be. you REALLY shoud be. i'm not being funny but it's the worst thing that could ever happen to you. it destroys your life and you seriously don't want that. life becomes even more crappy than what it may seem now. please reconsider. it's not glamorous or fun or cool or ANYthing. it's just awful. and i know- i've been anorexic for years and years. dont let it fool you too.
