I want to get worse again. I want that obsessiveness again. Also I really want to get an exercise addiction... But I have my doubts about the exercise addiction ever happening unfortunately.
@ujustcallmerina
Yeah, the only thing that would make them higher cal is if you add a lot of oil to them. Especially since they're good at absorbing. But genuinely they are so low cal
@hyuncig
Not to mention chicken is pretty good cals for what it is. A great source of lean protein too. Protein is extremely important, and also very filling.
@muttskull
Fr like sure, 200lbs ain't thin but it's also not morbidly obese to the point you can't walk or anything, and I'm saying this as someone who is currently a little over 200lbs
@988nerd
Do you mean like "these are my calories, they're named Stacy" or like reading out calories of everything like "That bread roll is 250 calories."? Genuinely wdym lmao
@THINPIXI
As someone who's hw is 122kg (approx. 269lbs) I couldn't agree more. Its easy to say "just do this! It's not that hard" or "it's easier for you to lose weight bc you're fat" when you have no idea what it's like. It ain't easy.
@SachaFelineCat
Are you sure it's zeroed out properly? Sometimes digital scales will be a bit fucky if they aren't zeroed out. But it also could just the faulty. Probably just keep the old one.
@dateluvr
I genuinely think she doesn't have long left. She would never attempt recovery regardless, because her view of recovery is tainted since Jacklyn 51/50'd her into recovery, which she wasn't ready for at all, so her perception of recovery will always be bad because of that.
@the8lbs
That person is definitely so wrong nipple piercings are attractive on women and honestly men too. I want nipple piercings but I'm so scared of the pain and the healing process.
@pixieispurging
Fr like it takes me like 20 mins + or about 15mins if I'm in a rush to pvrge, the stuffy nose is so real ngl, like I take a minute to blow my nose and compose myself afterwards.
@val_luvsuu
Depends how you view "recovered". I plan to maintain my weight at my ugw, which means I won't be restricting as much, but I'm not gonna gain (if I can help it).
Who tf is nuking all the fucking ED circles? First Starving, Interrupted (honestly though, that one needed to be put down), then Starving Pals, now Starvation Nation too?
@MereVenus
Not everyone arguing with you. This is the way it has been since early forum days. Yeah sure, it's kinda confusing, but this is the original meaning.
@iluvdietpepsi
It's definitely me. I don't want to drop my weight because I feel disgusting about it, but it's definitely way higher than the majority of the people here, and that's a fact, not the disorder speaking. Especially considering I started out with BED for a long time.
@puppystarves
Yeah no that is definitely enough to trigger anyone who has gone through that. I'm sorry you had to see that and we're reminded of that horrible, traumatic experience.
@perfgrrl
All the shit I've put myself through already. Like I've suffered enough and for what? I'm still fat. Like "at least wait until you're skinny to give up" that's what I tell myself.
@l0serlesb1an
@changkyuncals
I wasn't coming for them 😭 it's got nothing to do with cw, the calories in pastries scare me man that's all I meant by this, damn.
@stonerspo
Why do I have to be a short AFAB person? I swear I gained just looking at that..... but also Chick-Fil-A looks so good, we don't have it in my country 😭
@contrrl
I just say calorie counting and watching my portions, because that's not inherently disordered and most people aren't shocked by that. But I should mention that I have a hsw, so it's not a red flag in people's mind with me losung weight in the first place.
@ugw2025
The fact there's people walking around that don't realise just how political punk is, means they clearly haven't really listened to punk before, because it's often blatantly in the songs. It's hurts my brain that there are people like this.
@vroomvenus
Depending how long ago you got them, they're gonna swell a little more within the next couple days, so I'd definitely say go back and get bigger bars. My lip swelled so much when I got mine.
@imyeojincals
It straight up doesn't work for me because the urge when it comes is OBSESSIVE. It will not go away and it literally stresses me out until I binge. Then I just hate myself afterwards. I can do anything to try and distract me, but my brain will still be egging for me to binge.
@mothcaIs
@changkyuncals
I didn't realise it would come across that way. Pastries are a fear food of mine that's all. Perhaps I could've worded my comment differently. Being autistic doesn't help my case. Thanks for at least not attacking me lol
@lizkgz
Fr it's exhausting, especially if you've done it multiple days in a row. I've literally had to curl up into a ball on the bathroom floor to avoid fainting because I got really light headed on multiple occasions.
@crystalcaloriez
Your results are amazing! I am so glad I came across this thread, it's very inspirational to me, and it gives me a good idea of when to expect loose skin for me, and what it will look like. (I know everyone is different but at least I have a rough idea) might bookmark this.
@monkeypvdding
In a very similar boat. Can't have certain things in moderation that I'm used to eating the whole thing because my brain feels "cheated" if there's some left. I also relate to craving things you don't even like that much. That advice definitely doesn't work for everyone lol
As if 25+ people on edtwt going away is gonna stop the teenagers on here from being disordered? Like what's age got to do with this? We're all doing the same shit anyway.
@3ofswords666
Literally I still feel like no one on dating apps will choose me over other girls bc I'm fat. I've always told myself this. If I told someone I had a crush they knew I wouldn't act on it, bc I knew I didn't have a chance. I was my biggest self esteem killer tbh.
@eur1a
Restricting on the week days and b/p on the weekends. I find it helps my cravings letting myself have the things I want. Of course, I don't recommend pvrging at all, this is just what helped me.
@thesaintdiet
I still absolutely got the idea it's blood before reading what went wrong! To me the smudging actually looks really cool and I thought it was meant to be like that. You should honestly just run with it! Also, love Silence of The Lambs so this instantly caught my attention lol
@0rangeh0neys
Nah I just choose whatever I want to eat the most. Like logically I know I could probably never eat that (at least not without purging) but still, plus a lot of the food polls say "cals don't count"
@puppystarves
That's so fucked up. It is NEVER the victim's fault! Your report probably just went through a bot that was like "oh, there's no blood and no boobs it's okay." Instead of a real person checking it because wow
@glossy_gloss2
I think congratulating someone on losing weight is different than enabling because if you were to tell them to recover they'll probably not listen anyway. Being pro recovery I suppose is just supporting those who wish to recover and not being toxic / triggering to them.
@hereticknot
I don't understand Spanish, but I don't even need to to know what that's about. Why is the cat blender thing still a thing? That whole thing deeply upset me.
@flwufflez
Spice cals count for me, but only because I add a lot of different seasonings to a point where it makes a bit of a difference. But if your adding 1 or 2 spices then yeah that's negligible.
@r1tzcrackerzz
I mean I definitely had BED and food addiction as a kid, but I wasn't bulimic till I was 20. The thoughts of bulimia were there as a teenager but I didn't know how I'd hide that from my parents back then so I never acted on the thoughts until later.
@d34dw31ght
From what I've gathered from my own and others' experiences, it's false. I believe calorie absorption actually begins in the stomach but most of the nutritional absorption happens in the intestines. How much you absorb depends on how quick you purge after eating.
@icywaif
Weight go down. There's been times I thought I looked thinner but actually put on weight, or thought I looked fatter but actually lost weight, so clearly I'm not a good judge of my own body lmao
I've gained a fair bit of new followers the past few days, just wanted to say hi and thanks? Just a heads up, I reply to posts way more than I post myself, and if I've disappeared, I've probably just gained weight lol
@cold_hvert
This is a mood. I always weigh myself in the morning after peeing, but I refuse to drink even a little bit of water before I weigh myself even if I wake up absolutely dying of thirst.
