The Disorder of Eating

Ramblings

Wow okay so you know how you always like.. read about these celebrities with like.. eating disorders and stuff? You just look at them like 'wow.. that's screwed up' cause they've got their faces all sunken in and their arms look like twigs and stuff and you're just telling yourself 'THAT WILL NEVER BE MEEEE.'

well as of late, my friend Colton's mom, Kellie, has been telling me that I look very skinny, like I don't eat enough. Honestly, I don't. I don't ever feel really hungry any more unless I see like.. food I love. and that's kinda rare in my house since like.. we have all this healthy crap. So anyways, Kellie has been on my back about this FORWEEKSNOW. Every time I go up to see Colton she asks me if I've eaten that day and usually I'm like '... ehe.. no. BUT ITS OKAY CAUSE blah blah blah excuse.' Then Kellie's always like "WELL YOU'RE JUST IN TIME FOR DINNER HOW LUCKY ^_____^ *stuff with food*"

I've never really had like.. a problem with my weight before.. I mean I've had instances when I think 'OMG I'M A FUCKIN WHALE' but it's never like.. where I go throw up or anything. And I don't now! I could never make myself throw up.. it does all this stuff to your teeth and.. ew... just no. But towards the end of the school year I kinda.. I dunno.. I stopped making lunch for myself and I didn't eat anything when I got home from school.. It was weird.

Now that it's summer it's even worse.. Since I don't have like a set schedule I never really have certain times to eat, so I usually don't. Why? Because I'm either too lazy or too preoccupied with all the shitty stuff going on in my life to care about food. Honestly I have sooo many other people to be worrying about than myself and food..

BUT NOW LET US GO ON AN AMAZING JOURNEY.

THROUGH QS's WEIGHT.

last summer- 118 lbs
this fall- 110 lbs or somewhere around there
this winter- 108 lbs
this spring- 103-105 lbs
this summer- 99-100 lbs

.............. 99 is the freaking lowest I've been so far. and it uh.. scares me? cause my sister (who is like.. 4'8 or so) weighs 105 right now.... I'm about 5'2 or 5'3.. Kellie says that I should technically be around like.. 115 or 120? and I'm really.. not....... BUT I HAVE NO DESIRE TO GAIN WEIGHT AT ALL. Nope. I'm already gross enough as it is, I don't need to add fatness to that list. >_< being skinny is the one thing I can be proud of.. ;_; everything else about me fucking sucks..

*emo tiem*

anyways Kellie is trying to make me gain ten pounds. I don't think it's gonna work. I don't want to gain ten pounds.. I'd rather stay at the weight I am thankyouverymuch. :D

SORRY FOR WASTING YOUR TIME. I have to go worry about the love of my life now. That makes the hunger pains ~melt away~ ;D

:heart:

Hmmmmz, that's a tough dilemma there. On one hand, you totally don't seem to have an image problem at all like "OMG I'M FAT" when you aren't. On the other hand, yes, you are rather underweight.
I'm your height (weeeird XD) and I weigh from 115 to 120 depending on sports and if my scale is actually three pounds off like the doctor says (I bet he lied). So your friend Kellie is right that you need to gain 10 lbs, at least 5. As much as the summer screws up everyone's diet you really need to have one big meal a day like dinner and snack a bit throughout the day. So eat pasta! You like spaghetti, yes? Get some meats (or protein) in there with some veggies and you're set. =D
However there can be other factors in there to your weight, like if you've got melons and hips or not XD So I'm gonna invade your bubble and ask if you've got an hourglass figure or if you're fairly slender to begin with :poke: Height factors in there too, like girls I know who're taller than me but weigh less than me because they're naturally that thin.
And I know you totally don't want me bitching about your eating habits 'cuz that'd be hypocritical since I eat breakfast at noon in the summer or not at all and have coffee and brownies during the school year (which is unhealthy lol), but that little loss of weight diagram worries me a bit. I've had friends who were anorexic because of image issues and had to get shoved in the local mental ward to get help and I don't want that to happen to you or anything by accident ;_; You're very pretty and gaining some weight would by no means make you fat. Seriously, you're a gorgeous young woman and you're so intelligent and talented and witty! :heart: So treat yourself like the freakin godly Empress you are and give your needs some thought. It's wonderful that you worry about everyone else and care for them enough to forget yourself, but set aside time for you too :heart: 'cuz we worry bout you in return :hug:

Geez, I wrote a book :ohnoes: And I'm sorry if I sound preachy and all....

"There is something altogether fascinating and rather impertinent about rummaging through other people's private belongings."
i went through somethin' similar when i was your age(i just felt kinda old for a second...weirddddd). In 8th grade i weighed 100lbs and with my body type that wasn't so good apparently? Anyway in 9th grade i still wasn't heavier enough. Basically what i'm getting at is if you don't eat because you feel shitty about your weight then there's a problem but otherwise i think its just an age thing cuz i was the exact same way-
just don't do drugs cuz i made that mistake and ended up even skinnier then i layed off a lil and got fat hahah and lazeh.
anyway i'm bored, imma finish that quz you gave me:)
later babe~

where tha fuck is Waldo?
Pah, wasting my time? This is me skiving work experience.

My friend is seriously underweight, like 85/90lbs? (I dunno, I use metric!!:crying:) She's about 5'5 and she has a real problem putting on weight. She eats her own share in the chocolate/sweets/McD's that we buy when we're out, but never puts on any weight. That might have something to do with her crappy immune system, as she gets ill about regularly once a month for a few days and looses any weight she gained. She does get teased about having anorexia, but only as much as I get teased about being short (I'm 5'1ish and 110lbs). Everyone in our circle of friends seems to be hyper-sensitive about weight problems, so if anyone tries to skip lunch for work we'll drag them down and force them to eat a bread roll with butter first.

I'm kinda all out of advice cause I''ll be reiterating Miss Preachy up there :shakefist: (but no, seriously listen to her.)

Remember that weight is misleading, try to find one of those BMI calculators that tell you what ratio your weight is distributed in. Like if you have more muscle (because that weighs the most) or if you are just skin and bone.

Have you seen a red chameleon go by?
GO EAT SOMETHING RIGHT NOW.

There's soo many health problems from not eating, I can see why Colton's mom would be worried. Have you been to doctor about it? Get a blood test - you could be anemic or something like it, which definitely would make you feel worse (tired, lazy, depressed, ect). That's what happened to me, and now I'm on an all steak diet to bring up iron levels. :P

But seriously, if you keep this up, you could die. D: I'm not sure if you heard of *Eldaran but she died of heart failure because she was too thin ([link]) and I don't want that to happen to you. D: I may just be paranoid but really -- it could happen.

Even if you're feeling lazy or preoccupied, just have something easy to munch on. I have a whole bunch of snack packs that are laying around so they're easy to grab and munch on. And don't eat just healthy food -- junk works too, especially when bringing your weight up. Not to say splurge and become a ball of lard, I'm just saying opt for regular yogurt rather then fat-free.

:hug: I'm really worried about you. I'm going through almost the same thing right now, so I know how it feels to not want to eat and stuff. But you really really should. Even if all it takes is an alarm clock or something buzzing every hour or two, reminding you to eat something. If you can't sit down and eat a big meal, a whole bunch of small ones is perfect. :> I think I've told you this like....... ten times now. XD But it's true.

Next time I talk to you I best be hearing you're feeling better. :shakefish: Stop taking care of other people and start caring more about yourself!

My cutting-edge style seems to have shocked your pink sensibilities.
Yeaaah I mean sometimes I feel like a whale and I say to myself 'OKAY I'M GONNA EXERCISE AND LOSE IT ALL.' but.. I'm lazy so that uh.. never happens. XDD

Omg awesome we're the same height! .. but now you're making me feel worse about my weight hjrbgtr. I love pasta (ITS MY FAV FOOD) and we always have it in my house cause my dad's a pasta fanatic, but as I said in my journal, I am soooo lazy. Like.. so lazy that I don't want to heat up any of the leftover pasta and prepare it for consumption. One time I was so lazy I just.. took the container and ate cold pasta out of it. o_o LAZZYYy.

I has boobs thanks ma'am! I am a lovely B cup. :D As for hips.. uh.. sorta. I dunno. I think I'm an hourglass figure. I've always been slim.. I wasn't ever a chubby kid or anything. Always been thin and what not.

Oh well don't worry about that! I don't even get up till like.. 2 and I don't eat anything until like.. 5. If I ... feel like it.... XD My mom was actually just in one of those hospital program things for an eating disorder and I really don't want to have to go through that.. As for the rest of that stuff miss, it is lies! I only need a few minutes of attention and then I'm all set. :heart: But thank you.. really.. When I read this I felt all warm and fuzzy cause someone cares.. ;___; I thought when I posted this journal no one was gonna read it but here you are WITH A BOOOK. :heart::heart:

Thank you so much for.. taking the time to write this BEAUTIFUL MASTERPIECE for me. I looove you so much lady, dunno what I'd do without you. :heart::heart::heart:

"That's what babies are made of!"
XD thank you for your advice darlin'. :heart: Enjoy the quiz and I'll see if I can find you another one.

--
"That's what babies are made of!"
Oh I know someone like that! Like she's so skinny but it's not because she's trying to lose weight, she just has a really fast metabolism. And I know what you mean about the skipping lunch thing.. My friends do the same thing to me whenever I try to skip lunch! Except they stuff.. anything down my throat and my friend Danielle threatens to call my mom and tell her I'm not eating. XD She's like my other mom.

I appreciate the advice you've given me! It's hard to compete with the novelist up there, I know. XD But really, thank you so much for telling me this and spending time on lil ole me. :heart::heart: Love you! :heart:

I shall go find a BMI calculator right away! (Though I know for a fact I have...... like no muscle. XD *weakling*)

--
"That's what babies are made of!"
I haven't been to see a doctor about it, no, cause it doesn't seem serious enough to me to like.. mention it to my mom? So yeah last time I was at the doctor's I weighed around 108 I think.. And she didn't say anything then so.. :D

You're not the first person who's told me that.. Like I said Kellie kept going on and on about Karen Carpenter and gnegjen SHE SCARED THE CRAP OUT OF ME. and you are doing the same miss.. However I'll only be really be scared if I go any lower than 99 pounds.. D: I'd rather die in a much COOLER WAY then because I'm skinny.. Like.. being eaten by a shark might be cool...

Ah we do have snack packs here; 100 calorie packs of doritos and stuff. But I go into the closet to get something.. and then I decide I don't need it. My mind is conspiring against me... ;__; I know I should eat.. but I don't. I have the same issue with drinking.. I definitely do not get enough fluids during the day yet I don't do anything to fix it! And I love yogurt aghh it's so good. :heart: I used to have a container every night before bed mmm.

Don't worry about me love! I'm sure I'll get better.. maybe. XD Thank you for your advice though bubs.. I really appreciate it and I'll try to use it if my stupid mind will cooperate. >_<;

I have to take care of other people! Like you.. you need my ~tender love and care~ :heart::heart: Are you feeling any better at all? D:

"That's what babies are made of!"
Guess I can't make ya eat anything. I don't think you could be fat even if you wanted to, it just isn't in your genetic makeup but starving yourself, even if you don't feel like you're starving yourself is bad. I think gaining ten pounds would actually do you a bit of good. It'd probably make you look and feel healthier even if you feel fine now. You don't have to listen to me though, I'm just that weird girl that bugs you occasionally on the internet, but I hope you do have listen a bit.
