- I am underweight and have very low body fat. I hate to ask this but I want to know if anyone else with low body fat has experienced this... a "tail"? Gross I know but I actually seem to have a tail. When I get up from a cushion, my butt print has...
- Every moring I plan every single meal/snack, calorie etc. Most days I eat the exact same things just so I don't have to think about it all over again. But I am so trapped that I can't make any changes or my anxiety will go through the roof, at...
- I have not been on DS for quite some time. I entered an IOP treatement program that was 3 night per week for about the past 5 months. I just "graduated" a few weeks ago. Upon my meeting with my treatment team, they unanimously recommended and...
- I am sorry that I have not been on in a while but I started IOP and it is 3 x week, 3 hours each, plus 1 hour with therapist and 1/2 hour with nutritionist. Not to mention that I work full-time and a single mom... just a bit busy. Anyway, I wanted...
- I was doing great for 3-4 days. Really motivated to decrease exercise and eat more calories. I know the scale would go up and it did, but OMG. Too much too fast. I feel very worried that it will just skyrocket. I keep telling myself that I am...
- I have been doing really well this past week. I have been exercising less and eating a bit more. I have actually eaten more calories than I have burned 3 days this past week, which is great for me. I have gained a little and I am not freaking...
- I finally ask for help and now I can't get it! The counselor I saw last week is 1/2 hour a way, minimium so I need at least 2 hours for appts. With my work schedule the least difficult day is Fridays. Now, I find out that she doesn't work on...
- First of all, thanks for all of the responses on my last post. And I did it... I called and finally got a hold of the counselor. I took her first available appt yesterday and I actually went. Scary awakening... she confirmed that I had ED and a...
- I am tring to ask for help and the few steps I take get shot down. I am frustrated and feel like this is a "sign" that I just need to keep fighting alone. I tried to get an appt twice with my doctor. First time, the scheduling wasn't working and...
- This may sound strange and I hope it doesn't come across to offend anyone... but has anyone else ever felt that they aren't worthy of having an ED? What I am getting at is I really want to talk to someone about my Ed, but what stops me most is I...
- Just wanted to share that I made an appointment with my PCP today. I go in on Wed at 9:00am. I figure the more people I tell, the more accountable that I feel and therefore, I won't cancel my appointment. I am also putting out the promise to all,...
- I know this is only one of many excuses to hang on to ED, but I have read a lot about people who restrict end up binging once they add food back into their diet. I know that I should eat more, but I am afraid that once I start I won't be able to...
- I read about a lot of people taking meds and not getting relief. If I can offer one piece of advice, it is acupunture. I have suffered with migraines for 16 years and this past year I started acupunture. Previously, I tried lots of difference...
- I must be frustrating everyone as I am frustrating myself. Thank you to all that support me and take the time to answer my questions and give me advice. I know the answers, that I need to seek professional help. How do you take that first step? ...
- I hate getting into the shower because I am always losing a glob of hair. I know it is normal to shed but I do know this is not "normal" for me. My hair is beginning to look thin at the ends and I know it's because my body fat is way too low. I...
