I Hope Not :( Posted: 09-08-07 05:53am
i hope im not getting my eating disorder
back. i was anorexic for years before i
had william and i thought i was doing
well. i lost all my weight almost
completely as everyone on here realised.
but that was actually down to not eating.
in a day i snack out on crisps all day
because i have no time and i just dont
feel like eating. i sometimes have dinner
if we eat out but thats it. i dont tend
to put weight on much anyway. my bmi is
17.37, i know underweight. i dont
purposely not eat, i dont know whats wrong
with me. i just look at food and feel sick
most of the time. ive got my energy, which
i need 2 look after william anyway, please
some comments would be helpful x
that really sucks, i hope not for your
sake, i was anorexic and bulimic for 5
years before i got pregnant with joseph, i
managed not to go back to that after
having him but never quite lost the
weight. Now i had jordynne 9 mths ago and
im still fat , sometimes i want the eating
disorder back just to be skinny again. I
feel soo gross being fat, i hate it, back
when i had an eating disorder i was never
even fat, my heighest weight was 118.
Idkill to be 118 right now lol.
I was in therapy for a year for the eating
disorder as well, but then i stopped going
because my therapist opened her own
practice and it didnt accept my insurance
and then i went and moved in with my
sister while her husband was away.

the thing is i dont feel any different
even though ive lost a considerable amount
of weight. i didnt even notice it. to be
honest, id rather be the weight i was when
i was pregnant but i never seem to be able
to put any weight on. i know my weight is
unhealthy but i cant seem to do anything
about it as ive never got a big appetite
anyway. today ive only had a few pieces
off the chicken and im full
william seems to be eating more than me
which isnt hard
Ive heard that pregnancy can change your
metabolism. so maybe your metabolism is
really fast now or something, im not sure.
If your physically not hungry and losing
weight id see a dr to rule out any medical
issues. It does seem to be hard to eat
chasing around kids and feedin them ,
cleaning house etc. before you know it the
days almost over and your like wow i need
to eat lol.

yeah i know the feeling, you're constantly
on the go. i guess now ive got william ive
got to make sure i eat and not skip meals,
even though i may not feel hungry. theres
no chance of going to the doctors as i
havent any time. was supposed 2 go to the
clinic to weigh william as i havent done
that in months, but i just dont have the
time. williams at my mums now anyway as i
have work all day just washing my
uniform now

hi,
you don't really sound like you're getting
your eating disorder back. i know when
i'm running around all day, i run on this
constant stream of energy and i don't have
an appetite. you just don't think about
eating, and the more things you're doing
the less you want to eat.
i, also, would suggest trying to make time
to visit a doctor to ask if there are any
other reasons you might not be hungry.
while you are probably fine, there could
be a medical reason.
in the mean time, try and drink calories.
there are plenty of drinks out there that
are made to be balanced meals, with
protein and all that great stuff. some of
them even taste pretty good! sometimes
it's easier to drink something than
actually prepare and eat a meal.
