Eating Disorders (Bulimia and Anorexia Nervosa)

[fer0sh]

Pareho kami ni CarmzDrumz. Obsessed ako sa pag count ng calories. I swear I was happy with my life back then, with my family, friends, love life.. I dunno what happened bakit bigla akong na-obsess sa diet.. it was probably just because of my hormones.

I went on a diet sa sobrang focus ko, counting calories and everything nasobrahan. Anorexia na ba yun? I was hardly eating, and kumain lang ako ng biscuit nag jojogging na ako and I was exercising the calories off. Napansin ko kasi nung nagstart ako mag diet ang daming boys na tumitingin, LOL, so I went on with it..

But nasobrahan naman ako, sobrang payat ko tinatawag nila akong drug addict at mukhang tuyot. Looking back nakita ko sa mga pictures ko na ang gloomy nga at tuyot ng hitsura ko noon. I hardly eat out with my friends back then because the calories in the food sa mga restos freak me out. I stopped going to bars too because drinks have calories. Hindi din ako naging dean's lister probably because I couldn't think straight dahil sa gutom at kulang sa nutrients.

Mga sis hindi maganda ang changes sa katawan pag nasobrahan sa diet... kadiri!!! Kumapal ang body hairs ko because nag adjust yung katawan ko dahil nga sa wala nang fat to keep my body warm so naging balbon ako! Yuck! My hair was brittle, my skin was dehydrated dahil wala nang nutrients. My feet felt really weak, I could hardly walk, it couldn't support my body sa sobrang payat nila. My mom even told me that we should go see a doctor, wala akong sinasabi about my diet, but siguro mother's instinct na din napansin niya ang grabeng pagpayat ko.

But after several months, I eventually got over the phase, I didn't need to see a doctor. I don't know what I did bakit ko nalagpasan ang phase na yun.. bigla na lang akong kumain.. ang sarap ng feeling nang mabusog without thinking about the calories!!!
Siguro, sa mga may problems like that I suggest that you probably focus on another thing instead of food. Go on a vacation, find new hobbies, friends, love, play, sing, enjoy life, pray. Suggestion lang po, good luck!

i am really interested in topics like these. especially about twisted standards of beauty. napakadali kasi natin ijudge mga sarili natin based on what other people's concept of what is beautiful and what's not.

I'm 21 and the thing is, sooner or later I'll be havin wrinkles... and i will be single forever, holy smokes! How about that??!!!

That's not a problem. If you don't want wrinkles, avoid them. In short be happy with your life and avoid stress or anxiety. The more you're sad and lonely, the more you get wrinkles.
21 is not old, I'll be turning 21 next month & I'm also single. I don't worry about getting a wrinkles or be single forever. Because I got my friends and family whose always there for me and I'm contented even though I also have some flaws and insecurities. I'm not trying to be perfect that's why I enjoy my life. You must also learn how to enjoy your life

mayroon akong problema...
gusto kong maging skinny and hindi na ako kumakain.
i know its really unhealthy but thats the only way mag loose yung weight ko.

sis, it's not a way. i don't know if this will still help kasi 2006 pa yung post na ito. hahaha, anyways, for those who wants to diet. try eating an apple for breakfast and lunch (you can leave some for snack dahil sure akong gugutumin kayo.). then a cracker or two for dinner para hindi maumay sa lasa ng apple. i know halos mamamatay ka sa gutom at wala kang energy pero after 3 days, your body will get used to it you won't have a hard time after the third day

I don't know if qualified yung situation ko as an eating disorder, but I feel really annoyed everytime merong magyaya sa akin na kumain. I count calories too, and strictly dapat under 1000 calories lang ako a day.

I went from 125 lbs to 103 lbs in a span of four months. Healthy daw yung weight ko, pero I felt fat. Target ko nga is 95 lbs sana kaso di ko na kinaya, napressure na ako kumain. Now, my weight goes from 112-115 lbs. Normal naman ata yung fluctuations because of water weight and such. Sure there are days na I feel ugly pag nakikita kong I weigh more than 100 lbs, pero what can I do, masarap kumain.

And my boyfriend loves me for who I am. Sya nga gusto pa nya ako patabain, haha na love at first sight daw sya sa akin 3 years ago nung chubby pa ako =))

Anyway, girls, I know it's not easy pero kaya nyong iovercome yan. I think self esteem issue talaga to, and losing weight will not help. Ang nangyari nga sa akin non, naging obsessed ako sa weight loss. Target ko noon is 115 lbs lang. Then it became 110, 105, 100, then naging 95 ang ideal weight ko. Nakakaadik, and mahirap magstop.

I dunno if I'm making sense anymore :/

[caveat_emptor]

aww. i think i'm having the same situation. ang aim ko nung decemeber was just to weigh 112. ngayon i want to weigh 105 na. hahaha parang nakaka-overwhelm kasi yung pag-lose ng weight eh nakaka-adik ba. it's like, you want more weight to lose. parang drugs. hahaha but on my situation, kumakain naman ako ng normal. tinanggal ko lang yung rice sa lahat ng meal ko so i guess, that's still healthy? :p
