Does anyone else really need to fast for a few days?
I've gained two pounds in the past few days, even though I've been restricting. I've decided that a two day fast is the only way to go. Only water, diet soda, and coffee allowed. Sugar-free gum is okay too. Diet pills a plus, if you have access to them. I'm going to do it Wednesday and Thursday. If you'd like to join me, that would be great! Just comment with your progress.

I'm with you. I may go for apples instead of diet pills, though. Heh, negative calories, squee.

Hmm, I'm not sure because I'm not married. Maybe you could say you ate out or that you don't feel good?

My honest advice? Seek out a balanced diet plan that's healthy. Get away from this community and anything to do with pro-eating disorders. ED's are pure hell. I wouldn't wish one on my worst enemy. They're not "diets", they're demons. Walk away.

Thank you for speaking up. I have an eating disorder and ran across this website while googling for help. I could not believe what I was reading. Don't people realize they are damaging their bodies? That their bodies are catabolizing it's own muscle? That their bones will be so brittle with osteoporosis in a few years? Why don't these people want to enjoy life and be healthy? I know I do, so I won't read any more of these disturbing blogs. This is from a fellow anorexic....please admit you have a problem, get help, get healthy, and live!

my lastest quirk has been normal eating....and it's really bizarre but all of a sudeen I have control of my weight. now the difference is 2 pieces of toast in the morning if I want to lose and 4 if I want to stay....that'w with butter.

you are great! I've been trying to fast the last 3 days, but i still eat 300-400 at dinner and break it! What do you do if that happens, or I guess, what did you used to do? I did successfully fast before for 4 1/2 days, but I can't do it! At least I'm burning 1000 at the gym (yea, after 1hr 45 mins!) ANways, talk to you soon.
By the way, I'm new here!

Diet Pills

Don't take diet pills with fasting what is the point. You are not trying to kill yourself by damaging you liver, heart or kidneys. You just want to slim down more right???? Stay off them they do BAD things. Drink water and if you can't take it anymmore what is a matter with half a protein bar? That is like 80 calories at dinner. Instead of drinking brandy or anything which is another really bad idea if you are cutting back the calories; Why not have a packet of sugar for the jitters?? Look it up it is hardly anything and it will definetly give you the boost you need to make it past the slump.

yeah seriously. i was taking diet pills in hs and i used more than i was supposed to (like 2 pills 6 times a day rather than 2-3 times a day) and i found out they had speed in them (got em at walgreens- theyre off the market now)and they didnt really do any more than i couldve done w/o them. except get me addicted and shaky and hyper. and nauseous (sp?)

I'm with you. Today is my first day of fasting and I'll keep posting my progress. I just found this site this morning and I'm really glad that there are other people who I can fast with, it makes it that much harder to break it.

New book for guys with ED
(Anonymous)
2007-01-31 05:04 pm UTC (link)
This is an exciting event, my new book My Shadowed Tears will break through several levels of untapped content, such as male eating disorders, an in-depth look at the abuses behind state mental health care, and you will see first-hand how I survived through over a decade of abuse, neglect, hospitalizations, depression, 5 suicide attempts, and my fight to live.
When you look in the news, or online, or when you look at magazines, or when you research eating disorders, or look for books, almost everything is female-based. There is very little info on males with eating disorders, very few places for them to go (most hospitals don’t accept males), and most men and teenage guys with these disorders never say anything because they are afraid of what it would mean. "Am I gay?" "Is there something wrong with me?" "Am I different?" "Does this make me a sissy?"
This book is very intense, but has the capacity to save lives, to help people see eating disorders and depression in a completely different way.
Go to http://www.albbooks.com/albbookscprojects.html and take a look. You can email Ms. Boettcher (her email address is at the top of the page) or you can email me at imfinallyfreetobeme@yahoo.com. Like I said, this is an exciting new task that I am accomplishing through hundreds of hours writing my experiences, years of recovery, going through trials, and the enormous odds of overcoming them. Thank you for your time in reading this, and I hope that either Ms. Boettcher or I hear from you!

Just be busy or nap during meal times... say you had a huge lunch or breakfast or have been snacking all day long or if your going out just sya your grabbing food out. as for late nights.. jsut dont keep food around you...having the temptation there is the worst
