Q: Eating Disorders

I am unsure if I have or not and am having troubles dealing with it. I constantly am consumed with the thoughts of food and I eat normal meals but when no one is looking I continue to eat, I also lie about what I eat and how much I exercise. I am embarrassed and ashamed. I think about the next meal even when I am currently just starting one meal. I am 5'4" am 168lbs, I was 120 3yrs ago and would likd to get back around there. But food consumes me and I am too embarrased of gyms. I live in SK, CAN so it is hard to go outdoors in this -40 weather. I have tried every diet, cleanse, fast there is but I lie, cheat, and continue to think about food. When no one is home I over indulge, or I will hide the food and hope no one sees me eating it. When I get into a bad binge I will throw food away just so I won't eat it. Unsure of what to do.

Maybe you could try a smaller gym. You will find that many people at the gym are overweight. They are very friendly at most gyms, and they wouldn't laugh at you. How about working out at home? There are alot of good machines you could buy. There are plenty of videos you can work out too. Try to eat healthy and be active and you will feel alot better.
