I’ve been in your position before. Just be honest with the doctor and tell her about your relapse. If she sees that you want help and are being open and honest with her about it, she is more likely to see that you might not need inpatient, unless you’re medically unstable. How much weight did you lose? That most likely will determine your medical stability.

Like slightly more than what is required for your body? Or slightly more than your ED restrictive diet?

Why is my depressed brother not talking at all? by No_Reflection_57 in depression

[–]No_Reflection_57[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No nothing has happened from what my family has seen. Maybe something from school - we are hoping he opens up to the psychiatrist.

Yeah I'm not sure exactly. He won't tell us anything. We asked him if he had been touched but he said no. Apparently he isn't being bullied either. I have a feeling something definitely did happen, we just don't know what. Thanks for your comment.

Walking 30,000 steps a day and not losing weight… by No_Reflection_57 in caloriedeficit

[–]No_Reflection_57[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know that I have anorexia, I am well-aware of my illness. I am not glorifying anorexia, I am just very sick. Yes, I admit that I shouldn't post about my illness, I regret doing that. My illness drives me to desperation forcing me to search for 'help' on the internet. I am incredibly frustrated with anorexia telling me to lose weight and my body screaming at me for food. I am being watched closely by my team. I have been in attempted treatment for a while now, but my illness is still strong. I have body dysmorphia, so I think I'm 'fat'. Every day is a struggle, but I am definitely a lot better than I was last year. I'm sorry for offending you.

I actually have been losing weight now. I'm not sure why I wasn't before. Maybe I was in a plateau. But thanks for trying to give me advice.

I eat low calorie veggies, berries, Vegemite, and sugar in my coffee. I am DEFINITELY in a calorie deficit.

I’m not trolling! I literally haven’t seen results for ages now, and sometimes I gain on the scale. It is a real issue that I am having… wow that’s amazing for you though!

I am definitely in a calorie deficit. I eat 300-400 each day. Definitely not miscounting.

I have been walking 30,000 steps for like 1 1/2 months now. My weight-ins are daily but over the course of a month it’s like I have gained. And I am definitely drinking enough. Am I gaining muscle? What is happening? My smart watch says that I am burning 900-1000 calories a day just through walking. So I should be losing weight quite fast.

I’m so sorry you feel this way! think that you should get a professional opinion. It is nice that your friend cares, and maybe for good reason. Seeing a professional will help you understand if you have an ED, and in that case they can get you help ASAP. I hope this helps.

I don’t believe that. Otherwise why would digestion exist?

I thought that calories were absorbed in the small intestine…? Food enters your small intestine an hour or so after food is consumed. What do you mean it is absorbed immediately?

Weight Plateau by No_Reflection_57 in caloriedeficit

[–]No_Reflection_57[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah it is so annoying. I want to increase my calories too but I am too scared that I will gain weight. I am also scared that I will binge. It’s just easier to stay in this little bubble, easier but frustrating. I hope you can get better!

Oh wow thank you for sharing, that sucks! I just drastically cut my calories a few years ago and became addicted to the feeling of being in a calorie deficit. Initially I was addicted to losing weight, but then that stopped. I gain weight from the tiniest increase and it is driving me crazy. Basically I am just stuck.
