Why are there never any eating disorder threads? Certainly a decent amount of IST users especially /fats/ have experienced some kind of ED.
Me personally I ate 800 calories a day for about 3 months before I decided to start lifting to avoid being skinnyfat.
Stats:
Starting weight: 270lbs
Lowest weight: 222lbs
Current weight: 230lbs(rebounded a bit now that I'm actually eating at a normal deficit)
Goal weight: 180lbs(then I'll bulk to 200)
Height 6'3
Because 90% of the people here don't find their Eating Disorder a problem.
I binge ate after a long bout of prolonged 1500cals, which isn't low but for 18 months and 200+ pounds it was. I still binge occasionally, once a week, it's stalling my progress. I typically eat 1200cals all protein, but I am allowed to eat up to 1700.
I never classified any of my habits as disorderly, unhealthy sure, but I am aware of it all. The only time I ever felt legitimate out of control was the rebound. I was ravenous, I couldn't stop. I guess my incessant want to find a way to kill my appetite/hunger is disorderly. I wish I was never hungry again, I can force feed, but sometimes I can't put the fork down.
With that said ED/General is a good idea, but IST isn't really about muh feelings, so people would shit on it.
Do you lift or do you just want to be a skeleton?
I lift 5x a week and wish nothing more than to be big but still have light definition in my abs so like 15% bf
I should note that despite it seeming like I'm en route to dyeldom, I actually have decent core definition, even at 225. My autism has proved useful for training and nutrition. I know exactly how to train for everything except powerlifting/strongmen (not interested in it yet). As well as I know exactly how to/what to/when to eat. I just happen to be a food addict... It's how I know how to starve/crash diet effectively (not healthily), and I will not provide anybody with how to as well.
Like I said the only issue I have is I have a bottomeless stomach and a love to binge eat. I smashed 14,000 calories friday night and ate myself into a coma.
keep in mind I was full and was suppose to be sleeping at 915 when I started the binge. It wasn't even a binge I just wanted a frick ton of food while watching a movie, but yeah it was a binge.
>don't find their Eating Disorder a problem
then it's literally not a Disorder, tard
Most methheads don't think their meth addiction is a problem either.
thats a lie and you know it
I recently been cheated on and cant eat at all. Can I still workout like this or is it all a waste?
Not providing your body with sufficient nutrients/rest is not going to grow shit dog. Sorry to let you know. You can maintain till u get out the slump, but no. Please continue to workout though
try to at least drink some protein shakes to prevent muscle breakdown
i lost a lot of muscle after my breakup because I couldn't eat, and it pisses me off
I can binge with the best of them
I shit you not i can eat like 3 whole large pizzas. Part of me wants to go around to all those restaurants that have an eating challenge, get super baked before and show them how its done
When my fiance would leave to go see friends ( code for getting some real dicking for a change) I would make such ridiculous amounts of food and then rush to eat it all so a) it was all gone by the time she got home so she didnt know how much of a glutton i am/was and b) because i refuse to throw food put because its wastefull. Ill make like 4 cupsof rice (dry volume) with 2 or 3 chicken breats and a bunch of veggies with a peanut ginger sauce and muck that shit within an hour. Mouth is watering just thinking about it
Im getting better tho. Treating it like the drug addiction that it is and staying on the wagon
Same bro, parents used to let me eat till I vomited, I don't even binge for taste, purely for the full feeling. The taste is just a bonus, I'm scared when I hit my GW I'll turn into a freak to be honest. Knowing I can starve myself for 6 days and just binge on the 7th knowing I'll maintain... I literally ate into a coma on Saturday, I passed out. My heart was beating so fricking fast I thought I was gonna die. It's probably so bad I need 3rd party involvement. But I can fix it.
SO TRUE OP...
anyone here ever done chewing and spitting
I did with bananas some months ago, but I had a reason guys my stomach would keep vomiting and I couldn't eat much.
I havent tried this tbh but mostly because it just seems so moronic. Swallowing is the best part of eating, feeling the bolus go past the tastebuds in the back of your mouth and sliding down your throat (no homo) is like 90% of the drive to eat. Chewing and spitting is like just rubbing the tip of your wiener on the outside of someones butthole (again, no homo). Sure it feels kinda good but its not penetration
Nah, I wouldn't be able to hold myself back. I'd rather just eat and puke
Developed a binge eating disorder a few months ago and don't know way. Think it has something to do with my T levels because my libido tanked also. Not even fat but put on a few pounds since then
anon if you come back to this thread tell me how much FAT you are eating now. you should be eating at least 1/3 of your total body weight in fat. If not, your hormones get fricky, like real fricky. I HATE eating fat, and during this cut, I admit, it is very very low (20g, I should be eating 60-80). and I feel like shit, low T, depressed, never full, etc. Eat more fat, it sounds counter productive because 9cals per 1g, but trust me, if it's low, add more. Conveniently, I have also developed BED on low fat.
idk I just eat a lot I wish I didnt
he's literally me wtf?!
Most people with ED are in denial and they instead spam their ED diets here.
>increase cardio
>stop eating meme diets
>actually relax instead of sitting there raging on some video game or forum
>ed goes away
>some homosexual on IST argues otherwise every time
I hate the people you're talking about with such a passion.
i mean what is there to say about EDs?
I used to binge a lot often to the point of vomitting usually directly after buying grocerys and then i wouldn't eat anything for the next 2-3 days. On a normal binge i would easily eat around 10k+ calories, on some of the worst ones i probably ate three times that. I ate only fast food, ice cream, chips and snacks for years. Of course have been morbidly obese for years, had a bmi of 52.
Now i eat healthy, meticously track everything i eat, have a strict eating schedule and a caloric limit i allow myself to eat. Funnily enough i'm sure that isn't normal either but it beats the degenerate binging.
Same brother amen, I find that if I "let myself have a treat tee hee" I just binge eat and fall off plan. I have what I like to call "rigid flexibility" where I AM allowed to have a nice treat, but it can't be off plan, it has to be within a set criteria. People don't know how fricked it is, I've been binging and let it slip twice now, 15 plates at the buffet, 2 whole pecan pies BEFORE thanksgiving dinner was even ready. But if I don't death grip myself, I just can't live normally, if I ever have a kid they will learn how to never be a degenerate like me, I hope they never have to suffer this fate, I actually got a little upset just thinking about it.
because it ends up female dominating and they do that annoying HAES fatphobia thing where they critique and pathologize every behavior, even healthy ones
>eat healthy
omg you have orthorexia
>eat less calories to lose weight
omg you have anorexia
>stop eating desserts to lose fat
omg you're restricting
>have a little more than usual because of some special occasion
omg you have binge eating disorder
Eating disorders are for women. You have unhealthy habits not a disorder, grow up homosexual. Brb my smoking disorder is really playing up need to go have a cigarette because of my disorder
>Eating disorder
Wtf u mean, just eat normally
