Aubrey M asked:


I am trying to recover from an eating disorder, but I really don’t want to gain any weight. Will it work if I start with 600 calories a day for two weeks, then 800 for two weeks, then 1000, then 1200, then 1500? Is that too unhealthy? Are there any other methods for maintaining during recovery?

I’m trying to figure out if what I have is an eating disorder or if it just poor will-power and mindless eating. I notice that I tend to eat at night. I don’t eat much during the day but at night I tend to crave a lot of food and I eat. I am a light sleeper and sometimes I will have a sugar craving and I will go in the kitchen and fix a snack and then go back to bed. I’ve been doing this for years. I am now pondering if this could be an eating disorder and if it is what type of eating disorder?

Well, my friend has been drinking beverages more than eating today. I mean, today, she only ate three spoons of noodles and a slice of pizza, and she is full the whole day. But she drinks more frequently than she eats that she could still finish a whole bottle of milk in one sitting! Is this a disorder? What is wrong?

I have a friend who’se 5′11 and she weighs 105 pounds! Could she possibly have an eating disorder? I know shes not bulemic because she never uses the bathroom, but whenever we’re at a restaurant she eats a few bites and claims to be full. She drinks only diet soda and never stops talking about her weight. She brags about being skinny, though. Could she have an eating disorder or is she just really skinny?

In my middle school and high school years I had a eating disorder that basically controlled my life. I have been trying since I graduated from high school to keep from relapsing. For the last couple of weeks I’ve been thinking about just doing things all over again. What are some ways that I keep from relapsing?

Any personal accounts would really be helpful as well (but you don’t have to share them if you don’t want)

I don’t have an eating disorder, but it is certainly not ruled out of possbility that I may have one.

… asked:


I have all the early signs of an eating disorder (constantly checking my weight, always looking at my body in the mirror, not eating any candy or anything unhealthy) and I’m really scared that I’m going to become anorexic or something. How do I keep myself from hurting myself? By the way I’m already on the low side of average for weight and people tell me I’m skinny but I think I look fat.
