From anorexic to bulimic!
Question: From anorexic to bulimic
I suffered from eating disorders when I was younger and recently I have been thinking about what caused me to behave this way!. I started out just needing to lose weight (I was 12 yrs old 180lbs and 5 ft) I started losing weight and dropped to 90lbs!. I was finally happy with myself but my family began to pressure me to gain weight!. They would criticize me for being thin and watch every bite i took always demanding i eat more and eve go to the extent of cooking my vegetables with whole sticks of butter while i wasn't looking!. I felt so pressured that i began eating anything and everything just to please them!. I started gaining weight and felt miserable so I started purging in order to keep them happy but also remain thin!. This behavior lasted 5 years and turned my life upside down!. Do you think that if they would have let me stay at a comfortable 90-100lbs I would not have had this problem!?Www@Answer-Health@Com

It's really hard to say what would have happened in hindsight!.
It's possible, yes, but then again it's really how YOU felt about you!.
Environment does certainly play on our behaviors (this being my opinion and other therapists may argue that point) so they may have had a hand in it, but you can't blame all of it on them!.
How are you feeling now!?
Are you eating a steady heatlhy diet!?
Good luck and I hope that gave you some helpWww@Answer-Health@Com

I had a boyfriend that I really had a crush on, call me a big fat cow in the twelfth grade!. I lost 55 lbs in three months!. I went down to about 105, and with the grace of God, saw myself in a mirror one day, outside, and freaked out over it!. I think that the reason i kept losing at first, is that i lost it so fast, that I still saw myself as fat in the mirror!.!.!.like something in my mind, hadn't adjusted to the new look yet!. I was anorexic, and was very lucky to realize, that it just wasn't worth my life to try to make everyone else happy!.!.SO i gained about twenty pounds back, and still looked fantastic!.!.!.so go ahead and have a dang Twinkies, and the heck with everyone else right now!. Eat to live, and be healthy!.!.!.not to make others happy,!.!.YOU are the one who matters,!.!.!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
