I'm New, Please Lend Me Your Advice Posted: 01-27-07 16:22pm
Um, hi i've got a few questions. I have
never been diagnosed with any type of
eating disorder. Regularly exercising
made my weight sharply drop off and
stabilize much lower than where I started.
I've always eaten somewhat healthy foods.
I stopped exercising recently because I
felt it wasn't benefiting me at all, but
my diet remained pretty much the same.
I started looking at myself in the mirror
more after I quit, and I realized I now
have a pudgy gut. I tried starting to
exercising again to see if maybe that'd
help. It caused my weight to drop down a
bit, but I can still see the pudginess.
Though, I think the exercising is
affecting my eating habits. Now, I can
only eat roughly half as much as I used to
before feeling too full to eat anything
more. If I try to eat any more I
unwilling make myself sick, sometimes to
the point of near vomitting. I have no
urge to vomit, purge, count calories or
anything like that aside from working off
this extra stomach bulge. I'm certainly
not eating anymore than I used to, i'm
exercising the same, but I can't get rid
of this pudge. I've asked my
friends/family what I should do to lose
the pounds and they claim I need to gain
weight. A few people at work have made
jokes about me being bulimic or anorexic.
I can see the fat, but everyone else says
they can't. Do I have a problem? I'll
include my measurements below, hope it's
enough info.
Gender: male
age: 25
height: 5 foot 11 inches
weight: 108(current) jumps between
100-110ish
stomach circumference: 22 and
one-fourth'ish inches over belly button
thanks for all your help in advance, and
sorry if the spelling is bad.

You definitely have a problem. Your
weight is very low for your height and
it's extremely dangerous. You should
look into therapy/counselling for an
eating disorder.
