ok, multivitamins too, i'm not completely stupid

that is not good for you

no, it's not. c my Weekend of Beauty event & my interest in NEDA. i'm not anorexic, i don't purge. i do binge & then i have 2 make up 4 it.

oooh... be careful Jenny.. we just became friends - don't die on me!!!

no, not today, too much to do

i just hate the hollidays sometimes. i've gained a ton of weight since thanksgiving, and now christmas is coming, which is even more food.

you could do what I do...

just eat.

i was looking in the mirror, trying on a dress, seting my hair, and i hated it. i can lose weight fast and i know how to do it

(never said it'll help with weight management )

sorry Kalia? idk what 2468 is

i've dropped 3 kgs already, and feeling better i can do that much again by christmas

i need to exercise harder, this is my problem.

i can't eat any less. stopping eating causes me to *gain* weigh actually

my metabolism slows down, and *anything* i eat goes to fat

i'm sure i can drop another 3kgs no probelme

then, i have to exercise more, to get the metabilosm up and burn more calories

and i know i have to exercise, i'm weak, i can't lift or move mch

really?

i can try that!

right now, i'm stuck in "starvation" mode

You need to stop doing this Jen, i am going to be real mad at you if you don't eat anything

so no matter how little i eat, i can gain weight

i've been doing just water and multivatimins for a few days now

and it's working

but i know it won't keep working

i think i can get another 3kg out of it

i just hate this time of year. and i know at home, i'll be a pig and eat too much

i love my family

i just have a real hard time with control

and i control by not eating, and by not keeping food around

at home, there's just SO much

i really try not to touch it

but i always give in

after everyone goes to bed

i binge

and we go out to dinner or have a party almost every night

idk what to do, but not touch it

i'm at a 4 now, i've gaind a lot of wait int he past couple months

i know now to do this

i neeed to stop being lazy, spend more time at the gym, and brn the calories

Hi new Plurk Buddy! I dont know if this has been said, but abstaining from food makes your body go into starvation mode and

i just saw again tonight, that i have no strength left

It will absorb more fat when you do finally eat

ty Washu! *HUGS*

The best thing to do is to make sure you NEVER go hungry. Eat just enough to not feel the growl, then put it off

yes, i'm in starvation mode atm

i need to burn more calories thogh exercise

Sometimes exercise doesnt work for everyone, esp those that have more 'muscle' type of fat

i don;t hve much muscle or fat

Like my husband... when he exercises he just gains more muscle and doesnt lose ANY fat

hmm :-/

yeah, i've lost all of my muscle and tone in the past few months

*nods* So it depends on your body type really. At least muscle is good for you. Weight loss is so super hard. u.u

she jsut would stop craving al the food in the hosue

And there are a few things you can try to stay away from when you do eat. Any sugars or breads. (Bread turns to sugar and then fat)

mmm i did bread and water for a while, and i just alwys felt hungry

i feel better with just a multivitamin and water

bread seems bad

*nods* Bread will do that.

Try a nicer carb like rice if you can

hmmm ok

I know it's all a pain really. Just starvation mode make your body fight back. I hate it

my professional medical opinion is EAT... eating healthier and in moderation is better and safer.. I dont want you passing out, miss Jenny!

Your body needs a certain amount of calories each day to perform basic functions... so.... eat an apple.. have some fruit, the good carbs..

peole of all shapes and sizes, all variations of ethnicity. i did a full Weelend of Beauty multi-sim event, i love and appreciate it all.

for myself, i have different expectations

I had a big problem when I was in england for a few years, I gained weight so fast that I stopped even having normal periods

And years later I'm still fighting off the weight from it.

i don't sleep at night, i know this is bad too

i just need to push the weight down about 10 more kg

i can do it

then i can deal with eating right

i cant even fit in my clothes right now

you know how much this makes you hate yourself

*nods* Just be careful about a starve-binge cycle. It will make you gain I'm 100% sure

yeah, my mom was always thin, then she had to take steroids for her asthema, and gained SO much weight, she's nohing like she was

she does 1k calies a day and gains wight ;(

Small goals can help too. I did this for a while hundredpushups.com

yeah, i'm fighting binging right now

i can go a few days, then i ruin it all with a binge

and i don't purge, ever

tbh, i wish i could, but i just cant

It's crazy to say, but 5-6 small meals will have you lose weight faster and the cravings may go

And you might crave + not sleep because your body isnt healthy.

<3 u seren & ara

sorry AshfordB, i didn't mean that...i was just sharing something extremely personal, and i need and appreciate the thoughts

if you know me in SL, i *never* talk about this

i did spend many months doing a full weekend event promiting a healthy self-image and benefiting NEDA (national eathing disorders assn)

it means a lot to me

and i'm sorry for sharing tongiht

holidays are hard

i'm sorry, plurk feels a little different to me, in a positive way. i share things i would never say in public in SL

and ty all *hugs*

ty kalia1 *MUAH*

I agree, it's your timeline.

you know, a few months ago, i was part of a movie premire

all about the portrayal of women in the media

i offered to help, i really felt strongly about it

and the director told me that he has no interest in the internet

this was during our Weekend of Beauty

it hurt a lot

and i felt he was so stupid for pasing up what we can offfer

w/e

You can do it all over again, anyway, you don't need a movie to promote good deeds, your actions speak for themselves.

ty ara ;-( <3 u! *muah*

it still hurt a lot, that i belived and wanted to help, and he had no interest in me

ashfordB, eating disorders are very difficult, psycological things

and tbh, this all *does* help me

and ty all

please understand, all, eating disorders are *very* hard to deal with

it's not like alchol or tobacco, where you can just quit

I agree, anything that involves a mental sickness is difficult and a lot of the times good advice just doesn't do the trick, some sicknesses

you need to eat every day

take ages to cure and even then, some will never be fully cured. It takes time and patience.

i was in "maintenace" mode for a while, and i tried to do some things in SL to raise awareness

i've slid back tough just admtting this is hard

the who point of our Weekend of Beauty was to make *everyone* feel good about themselves, large or small

and to promote healthy lifestyles

i'm no angel. i wish i were perfect. but if i were, i probably would

wouldn't feel so passinate about this

ty, ED isn't smehting that's solved in a night. it's a hard thing, and contuning discussions with friends, helps. tysm *hugs*

Fasting for one day every week is actually said to be good for you, but not three days in a row. I am on a type of lifestyle that I would

not recommend to someone who has an ED or not yet recovered from one, but may offer a bit of hope to you. It is to put as much nutrition

as you can into whatever you put into your mouth while eating only food of a sensible caloric content.Forget calorie minimums or set numbers

as your body will require different amounts from other people and even on different days. Listen to your body's cravings and get used to

Jen please be very careful, we worry and care about you a lot! You need sustenance or your body can't function and will start eating muscle

eating healthily. Once you wean yourself off processed sugars, grease, etc...chips, unhealthy foods you won't miss it.
