When will i be able to get bact to a heathy weight?

[ShatteredWings]

yea, in hindsight over the summer, i know i stoped eating and i prolly lost alot of weight but coudnt see it. now its october. i'm closer. i'm only about 15lb lighter than wen i got sick. but i cant seem to get back to where i belong.

i'm pickie, i know that....and its hard to eat alot in a sitting(snacksare soooo on the menue) but i end up being about normal in that respect. People constantly comment that "youve lost weight". they didnt se me oveer the summer...

this sounds crazy but i'm serious...have i warped my body to always be underweight? I was a tinie kid, but never like this. I dont know what i looked like before. i wouldnt let anyone see me.

Like Anthony said in my post, you should try to eat three meals a day and plenty of water. That can help you find your way back to healthy weight :)

I just responded to your other thread, I sure hope you follow thru and get to a therapist real soon! S/he can help you with both of these issues.

It takes a while to gain the weight, don't get discouraged. Try to eat 3 square meals a day, limit those tempting snacks. What you're doing here isn't just gaining weight, but changing your lifestyle. You're going from doing things that are very unhealthy to adopting a more healthy lifestyle. So, in the beginning, you might feel 'weird' eating in the AM and skipping some of those snacks. But with time, it'll become normal as they become habits that replace the old, bad ones. Just stick with it.

In terms of your q, your prior anorexia wasn't a good thing, to be sure, but it's doubtful that you caused permanent damage. However, left untreated, it can be fatal, you can starve yourself to death, as Karen Carpenter, the folk singer did a while back. So, it's important to really stay with this, fight the urge to go 'there' again, and get to a therapist (I'm assuming your folks already know about this).

er, my parents didnt even notice. they dont notice im slowly becoming normal....ive needed a councler for years really..but my dad's and my moms in denial...hell,i was too.

most of the time, i'm good and can make myself. some days i feel to sick and basicly eat enough to not be abslouly exausetd

uh, oh. Let's get you to an adult, ok? Who can we trust? A guidance counsellor? A relative? Who?

I think your task this week is to tell someone, an adult, what's been going on and let them get you to some good professionals. Who is that?
