I Want to be Skinny and Feel Good About Myself
I am a 20 year old female, and I have had disordered eating since I was 14. It started out as restricting my intake to a very small number of calories a day and going to the gym twice a day for ridiculously long periods. To begin with I was overweight (I was quite short), but then I lost a lot of weight in a quick period of time. I loved the commen...
Severe Food Aversion - Not Related To Losing Weight
How do you deal with severe food aversions and just not liking to eat? For me it’s not a weight issue at all! EDNOS is probably the closest I'll ever come to a diagnosis.

I don't want to be anorexic, yet I have...
I have been weight strengthening every other day as part of my weight loss program. This is not a mega workout program, but something I have been able to do in my home with consistency; I am now lifting 5 pounds! On the days that I lift weights I notice a lot of fatigue between 2 and 3 in the afternoon. I have tried a protein snack, hoping that thi...
