I'm going to tell you EXACTLY what I told Megan. Don't don't turn to depriving yourself from food! Honey, listen up! Do you know what not eatting does to your body? It may not seem like a lot, but it will eat away at your muscle and drain your body of needed water. Not only will this dehydrate you...but think of your prescious muscle! Consider this: your heart's a muscle...one that you can't get back. I know the road is frustrating, but there are other options. You have so many things you can do to lose those pounds and keep them off. Cheaply! Don't get discouraged. I know it's hard when your own mother won't even support you. Just pick yourself back up and keep going down that road to health, happiness, and being fit. You'll be so much happier in the end. Besides, depriving yourself will only lead to binging later. NEVER do this to yourself, it's the worst possible option. Just look at your diet, and change simple things...that you can live with. Drink a glass of milk in the morning or have a bowl of fiber rich cereal with banana's cut on top of it (yum!), eat lots of whole wheats, veggies, and fruits. I know this is universally know...and preached over and over, but cut your junk food. Even if you can't totally eliminate it...just halfing it will work wonders. By doing things you can live with....you'll see results over time. And, being active will also quicken your results. Get enthused! You CAN do this! It's your life...you decide what you eat, you decide how to live....and you are NOT defined by your weight. You're a beautiful person. Let yourself out from your prison, and you will soar. Don't be drawn into the emacited model world. You are a beautiful individual, never let anyone tell you otherwise. Good luck. We love and support you! :hugs: ~Miss K

ok well congratulations on the 25 pounds! but..dont say you have 'tried' being anorexic and bulimic. It is not something you 'try' to do. It is a chemical inbalance in your body. so please..that really bugs me when people want to be anorexic and they 'try' to do it
