What do i do about my fiance and my eating disorder? -

i have an eating disorder and no, i do not want to go into inpatient care so that is out of the question. i am 77 lbs and my goal is 70 by new years. that is a healthy weight loss rate because its only like 1 lb a week. i told my fiance this and he said whatever, i ve given up on trying to help you- you are literally addicted to losing weight. i dont know if he is saying this just cause my **** shrinked, or what idk. :( it makes me really sad and idk what to do. i feel worse that he is given up than i did when he used to tell me i dont need to lose weight. its sucky. and its not like i wanted my chest to shrink i jsut want thinner thighs. i cant help suffering from an eating disorder, its a disease and idk what to do it literally has consumed me. all i can ever think about is food. i havent had a meal in several months. a meal, for me, is a bowl of cereal or a couple vegetarian sausages with mustard. i definately do not want to go into an inpatient or clinic program but im scared my fiance will give up on me all together and leave me what do i do? :(

im so sorry, im super skinny as it is (fast metabolism)try drinking protein shakesyou cant really get help unless its professionalbut if your fiancee cared about you he would let you go get helpim sorryxox lots of love

I know how you feel about losing weight, i too used to be obsessed and would be disappointed when i didn t lose a pound a day. You should ask yourself; what s more important, losing weight or being with the person you love. You can always go back to losing weight but if you lose your love chances are you won t get him back.

Get help.The person who loves you the most is telling you that you have a problem.Listen to him.

you may not want to go but you need to or you are going to end up dead.

wow that is crazy

thats tought

Ask yourself this how can I love my fiance when I don t even love myself?

you could get a shrink. It s not inpatient care, and the psycologist could help you through you re disorder. You re fiance doesn t say anything anymore because he basically has given up. You need to take matters into you re own hands to change your problem. If you want to be healthy and happy you ll find a way to do it. Don t let a mental block get in the way of you re happiness. But whatever you decide to do, I hope it turns out well :)

learn to love yourself as you are.why do you want thinner thighs? from what you say your fiancee is not giving you a lot of help, but don t judge him by that he probably doesn t know what to say, that doesn t mean he doesn t care.you need help with your eating disorder talk to professional people who know what you re going through.your fiancee is not going to like you getting thinner, how did you look when you started your relationship? he likes you that way try to aim for that look.thighs are not supposed to be thin they re supposed to have some meat on them, both muscle and fat.1 pound a week may be healthy but is your target weight healthy?

The choices that you are making has repercussions that are seriously harming you physically and emotionally. It s starting to effect the relationship you have with your fiance... and if you continue this it will destroy it.If you persist moving in this downward spiral, you are also are jeopardizing the overall health of any future children you may have.Visit some websites to get an idea of how to overcome this (i.e. http://www.healingpathfoundation.org/ano�� but more importantly seek professional help. You are avoiding professional help because you are stuck in an addictive cycle - just take the step and do it. FIRST, start by getting rid of that silly goal. As long as you are focused on that... you ll make no progress.Because of who I am, I can t help but suggest you seek God s help. Take my advice or not... at least ponder and take these words to heart -You are God s own child. He is your Father. He loves you unconditionally. You have infinite worth. You have infinite potential. You are NOT to be compared to anyone else.Good luck and God bless.

If you have an eating disorder you need to seek help and if you choose not to than that is your fault. You may not want help but fact of the matter is that you need it. 70lbs is not a healthy weight for someone old enough to get married, unless you re like 4ft something. Eating disorders are hard to deal with. When I was institutionalized (for depression) my roommate was an anorexic and they had to force feed her. But she was so committed to her illness that she found ways around it (which I won t share in case you do decide to seek help). If you let this illness consume you like it is then you are going to lose more than your fiance. However, if he really loved you he also wouldn t give up on you. He would do everything he could to help you, even if that meant an intervention with your friends and family. Your choices are to seek help and get better or slowly whittle away until you die. I can only hope that someone cares enough about you to stop you.

First off, you should realize that you re not alone. Almost fifty percent of girls ages 11-17 are concerned with how they look. It s okay to not know what to do, or where to turn, or who to ask. However, understanding why you have the disorder is the first thing you need to conquer. You say you want thinner thighs... its more than that... and thats something you can t do alone. Either find someone you can trust and wholeheartedly commit to trying to find a solution... and I mean... wholeheartedly commit, like your life depends on it... because it does. And if you don t have someone you can trust a better route is to call one of these numbers and get help. Believe it or not, a lot of the people who help have been through eating disabilities too... you can talk to people who are going through the same things you are going through right now... just give em a call..Anorexia Nervosa and Associated Disorders (ANAD)1-847-831-3438Referrals for treatment and informationHope Line Network1-800-273-TALK; 1-800-273-8255National Call Center for At-Risk Youth1-800-USA-KIDS; 1-800-872-5437
