16 Year Old On the Verge of An Eating Disorder...need Advice Posted: 08-02-06 00:07am
I'm 16 years old and I weigh 102 right now
and am 5'...I used to weigh 107 at the
beginning of the summer (i weighed 20 lbs
less before puberty came and ruined my
like lol)....I've lost 5 lbs w/ in the
past month by having: a cup of milk in
the morning and basically endless lettuce
and maybe a lil bit of carrots or
broccolli and a couple strawberries and a
slice of apple....... When it comes to
exercise sometimes i'd do an hr of stairs
or an hr jogging or some dancing
now when I step aside and look at what i'm
doing to myself I realize how stupid i'm
being...Everytime that I come to eat
anything ..... Even broccolli...I feel
guilty even if i'm not overeating ....I
want to stop this and just eat like a sane
person esp b/c I need my vitamins (i am 16
afterall) and if I stay at this height
i'll always look like a fat
midget..........But I know that once I
begin eating again it will lead to a
drastic weight gain but I really do not
like feeling fat......I really just want
to put food away almost altogether just so
I could reach my goal of getting rid of
the excess fat that is slathered on my
body but i'm a smart girl and know that I
should not deprive my body but still i'm a
perfectionist and just find the look of
celulite disgusting .... I want to have
the body of rachel bilson really really
badly and will at this pt do anything to
get it.....
Does anybody have any suggestions for a
good diet that will help me lose weight
but still keep me nourished?
