Anorexia

How do anorexics have the motivation to not eat, would motivation be the word? o well. Can someone tell me more about it?

Well if they truly want to lose weight...it's easy. I know from experience. It gets to the point where you feel sick after you eat. And when you're hungry it feels good. I know that sounds weird but thats how it is for me.It's a very hard thing to get out of too.

thats strange because i feel the same way but im not sure if im anorexic or what. Im just never hungry half the time.

well if you aren't hungry...that's different. It's when you purposely don't eat. then you have a problem...

It's soemthimg you just tell yourself, that if you eat you will be fat and that's my worst fear!!! I feel sich when I eat and after I just go to the toilet and gets it all up, until I finally feel goos again....I love seeing my bones in the mirror and feel the hunger when I'm hungry, that my motivation....and looking at skinny models!!!

wow.. thats curazy

Cool thank you. I find it hard for me to lose weight even tho im not really eating and im exercising heaps. Is coffee not gud to drink?

Coming from a person who was once anorexic -------->The way to lose weight ISN'T to stop eating. Eat lots of veg and exercise. If you stop eating, or cut down on eating too much, then when you do start eating again properly ( and trust me you will), then most of the weight you put on goes back on as lovely FATTY cellulite....resulting in you hating your appearance more than when you started trying to stop eating.

No one will actually listen to this because you all probably think veg and exercise wont do it quick enough, and you think stopping eating is the fast way. Most of the weight you lose when you stop eating is actually water and muscle, NOT fat. Ah well i tried my best.

Thank you, thats some of the best advice.

yeah toni is right. I have a friend who was anorexic, (sp), when she finally started eating, and not like overly eating, just being normal, she gained it all back and even more. Not to say you should keep being anorexic. Just don't start because if you do, once you stop, you gain all your weight back and more. Just a warning to ya'll!
