EATING DISORDERS COMMUNITY
Is there a such thing as an eating disorder attack???

Is there a such thing as an eating disorder attack???

I get times were my weight bugs me alot for a couple days to a couple weeks somtimes.

The first time it really bugged me wich was early July I starved myself for 2 days then stoped because I read somewere that it would slow my matabalizm down so in the long run I would gain weight.

Then I forgot about my weight for a couple mounths until I weighed myself at my friends house and noticed that I lost 6lbs I was happy with my progress but wanted to make sure I dident gain it back and that I lost more. So I started doing an hour long work out a night with a sweater on to make me sweat so I would lose more weight I also drank 3 HUGE mugs of water during the exersis because I knew Tyra Banks said she drank abuncj of water an litterly peed her weight off. But that only lasted a week until somthing stoped me from doin it one night and I never started up again.

The second last or last time I did the worout I sat in my w
room for an hour after habit dessert and was scolding myself for having dessert. I was thinking of puking just once but decided not to and just did the work out

I gained 1lbs during the week of exersise I was devestated.

Since I stoped a week or 2 ago I am still trying to lose weight and it's still pritty much always on my mind but instead of doing somthing derastic I'm just cutting back food.

I don't why but when ever I really try hard to lose weight I just gain but if I want to lose weight and don't think about it I just lose the weight with out really trying or thinking about it.
So since I stoped the exersise I have lost 5lbs. And I lost 4lbs between Tuesday and friday. Though I haven't weighed myself since Friday so I don't know what I weigh now

but my question is, is it possible to have eating dissorder attacks??? I'm not completly sure if I have an eating dissorder or not because I haven't talked to my doctor  but I if I do and the there is a such thing then things will make so much more sence!!!!
Thanks for reading

Yes, eating disorders can and do run in cycles, where sometimes they will be very bad for awhile then seem to go away until something else triggers them again. In general, though, they do progress (get worse) if not treated.

I'm still like that. I can never go a day without thinking about the size and weight of myself. I'm constantly thinking about weight gain, and how I can feel the fat building up on my arms and around my stomach and thighs.

I will say one good side of having jiggly thighs is you can studdy the effects of a earthquake/astrod hitting the earth. If only I had a slow motion camira...lolz but it is possable and does happen. Times were I say "just eat til you get fat have a heart atack and die" and other times I say "stop eating you fat ***! Just a week without food can make you drop several pounds" I've made countless plans, always messing up and starting all over. It's not good but your Ed is always there.

If you even need to talk just message me. :)

I'm still very concouse of my weight and it's pritty much the only thing I think of but at least I'm not doing that exersise anymore and I'm not starving myself anymore. I'm just cutting back. I was very proud of myself last nigh because all I had for dinner was a small peaoce of chicken about the size if my palm and a hot dog and sadly a pop woch I am not so proud of.

Though yesterday at brunch my mum snaped on me for offering my last peace of bacon up because I don't like bacon. She practicly yelled " you don't have to stop eating all together you know" it really hurt because she obvisly saw me eat all those eggs hashbrowns 2 peaces of toast and ready one peace of bacon.
What bigs me is that she dident notice in July when I skipped meals but now she notices when i'm not.

Right now I usualy eat half a plate of food because after that I am full and I don't want to stretch my stumic. Though last night I was still hungry but I was thinking heck my mums gonna let me not eat anymore food so why not just atop now. Though the night befor last night I felt like a pig because I actualy went back for seconds because it was my favorit meal and I had a friend over. So I was really scared I was goin to gain weight wich why I was happy I ate so little last night.
