I've always been a little concious about my weight but never really did anything about it. About 5 days ago, very suddenly i all of a sudden started eating alot less... because i felt and still feel fat if i eat too much. I also started very closley counting the amount of calories i ate per day and i try to survive on the least possible i can... usually between about 500-800. I write all of this down in a notebook. I know this isn't enough to keep me healthy but at the same time i love the way my weight is dropping so fast atm. If i feel i've eaten too much and have the chance without anyone noticing i will try to make myself throw it back up. Does this mean i have an ED? It's starting to scare me now because people are noticing the weight loss :/

I posted this in a previous post, the 3 meals part doesn't apply to you, but the Going to the doctors and psychiatrist part and my MSN does apply to you. And the Mild part doesn't apply to you, you don't have a mild eating disorder. You DO have an eating disorder.

"See a doctor. I'm a recovering anorexic myself. I used to be overweight (168lbs) (12 Stone). Now I'm 118lbs (8 Stone 5 I think) needing to get to 127lbs to be healthy (9 Stone). The reason that is because I have a set weight by a Psychiatrist, Doctor, dietitian and the over team down at CAMHS. (Child and adolescent mental health services). They help alot. When I cut down eating tons, I didn't know I had a eating disorder at the time; because I wanted to loose weight at the time because I was fat. I was getting obsessed with my calories, my weight, weighing myself around January - February time. I thought I was in control. I went to a doctors around March because My friends were worried, so I went. The news I found out was that I have been diagnosed with Anorexia nervosa, My heart rate dropped from a normal 60 to 80 beats to 44 Beats per second. I got "SHOOK" majorly. I got referred to CAMHS (Child and adolescent mental health services) and they helped me out tons. You discuss your emotional problems other than weight problems, they will help you with eating food again and changing your mind etc.

Please do get yourself checked, I understand that you eat three meals a day; but you need to eat more with a dessert after dinner and snacks in between, maybe fruit? Teenagers (Such as myself) don't get a set limit of calories to eat because we need to EAT more than normal people because our body needs fuel to grow. I know the situation you are in. Please head to a doctors, they will help you majorly. It was the best decision of my life when I went to the doctors. [Content Removed] I'd be happy to help you out TONS more.

I think you have a mild eating disorder, you shouldn't be thinking of calories or fat... Your a teenager... Your meant to get out and have the most epic time of your life; shouldn't be thinking of stupid things like calories!

Please add your msn to your contact information if you wish for people to add you. Don't post it in threads - Kaius
