Anorexia

[Anonymous No.8095845]

Hi /ck/.

I was wondering if any of you have ever had anorexia and had to recover.
I have recently been on the stretch to recovery. I am trying many things to make myself healthy and to eat more food.

For example, I have today gone through various thread in the catalogue as of 1458 hours GMT and created a nutritional label for them. I have rated the best threads as the most nutritious, and the shitposting threads the least. This encourages me to know that nutritious things can be good and makes me more likely to eat.

I got anorexia from reading /ck/. I kept reading about fast food and eventually it made me feel really self conscious. One day I was reading a fucking McChicken Sandwich thread and had a breakdown and had 30 calories in the next 4 days and I have lost 30lbs since.

I have the 'overeating problem' instead. Basically just no self control.

Sometimes when I'm hungry late at night I just browse /c/k to look at tasty foods I don't let myself have.

I'm male and I'm anorexic

I started out by just dieting to lose some weight since I was overweight and it just got out of control.

I've been trying to teach myself to eat normaly again but I fail everytime.

[Anonymous No.8097290]

>>8096936
55g of Dandelion Flowers from outside (25 calories)
500ml of coke zero (5 calories)

I also chewed a gum but burnt the calories from it by chewing for enough time.

Oh no.......
Dude, if you eat only steamed vegetables such as greens there is literally no way you can get fat. Please, eat a ton of those at least. Broccoli. Spinach. Lamb's quarters. That should get you started.

Use something like myfitnesspal that lets you track calories as well as nutritional content, so you know how much you need to eat to meet your nutritional needs, and eat with confidence that you're not getting too many calories.

whats the medical name of anorexia when you don't have an appetite due to health issues instead of mental/vanity issues? I drink way too much and have a bad gall bladder so eating feels like shit even though I hate being scrawny and want to gain weight.

I have EDNOS and im jealous of people who have anorexia. Literally. All i can think about is how i will never be skinny enough because i cant commit to starving. I've gone through so many weird diets and restricting patterns but its almost impossible to lose weight. Or at least it was for a long time. I wasnt exercising, I am now but i am gaining muscle and dont feel im losing even though i no longer binge but i also dont restrict as much. Im really frustrated because the weight isnt coming off and when i look at myself i want to restrict again. So fucking frustrating.
