Help Me!!!

Yes it will work..But it isn't healthy..I am in the same boat.. I am currently 145...( I just had a baby)..And I want to get back down to my old size 115lbs....

I wasn't always 115lbs..I went on a starvation diet 2 years ago, before that I was 140 lbs...It only took 1 month to lose all that weight...

It isn't smart..But I did it anyway/..And I am gonna do it again too.

Hey there! No I don't think that will work at all. Starving doesn't make you lose weight all it does is cause alot of health problems and can be very destructive. To lose weight you should eat every 3 hours because that speeds up your metabolism which burns your food quicker and more easily and it also keeps you healthy.
An eating disorder is something which is more about the mental aspect of a person and less about the losing weight.
If you have read any of the posts on the forum you will see the people here are very lost and very unhappy, some people here are underweight and some are over weight, yet we all think the same way and its a very scary and very lonely place to be in.
Starving yourself will not make you happy with yourself,it just doesn't work that way. Perhaps if you focused on the things you are looking forward to on your holidays, the people you will meet, getting a tan,going to water parks, things like that are what you should be thinking about not about losing weight.
You are perfect the way you are, you don't need to change the way you look to change the way you feel. Say you to yourself that its not so much important what weight you are, its more important that you enjoy yourself and focus on the good points of the holiday and what your looking forward to rather then what you think you should look like.
By the way you are a good weight for your height, so you have nothing to worry about.
I hope you have a great holiday and write when you get back and let us know how you got on k
all the best

Hi there... Just so you know, starving yourself can actually make you gain weight, I know cause it happened to me, (not cause I was trying to loose weight, but because I get so busy doing stuff that I actually forget to eat, and don't even think about the fact that I am hungry) anyway, I did some research on it, and found out that if you are starving yourself your body starts to store up all the calories to burn later cause it doesn't know when the next time it is going to get food. Eat small meals 6 times a day, and your body will burn them faster because it is not worried about having to store stuff.

Hope this helps.

You know.. For some it does work.. For some others it doesn't, believe me, I tried that starvation diet, and I failed a million times, I lost around 8 to 12 lbs, then I binged, and ate compulsively for the next days, and got it back, that's even how I got started, 2 yrs ago I was 120, then I spent 3 days w/o eating, and the rest of the month eating too much, I didn't even know about this.. But that how I gained 'til 143.

So you can lose that weight, but you will still feel like you need to lose more and more and more, it controls your mind, like it or not.

Now, i'm trying a diet, i've lost 12 lbs on a week, and i'm not even thinking about failure, I started around that weight also, I was 141, i'm 5'7 too, and now i'm 129, planning to get skinnier with diet!

Please don't do that, I felt soo much worse when I did it.. I cried too much wishing I could go back in time so I would never stopped eating.

Oh!, excercise also, excercise as much as you can, swimming is great!, run, stay active all day, clean your room, or whatever need to be cleaned, cuz even housework burns cals.

Believe me, it feels great when you are about to sleep and you are just too tired, it feels better than great if you know you followed your diet.

Even if you don't lose that much, keep trying, it's such a short time, so just try the more you can lose.

Please don't start on this!
