While I am late on this subject and had to dig it out...this is very intimate with me and very, what can I say, well I can't think of the right word now but it is an issue that I've always had to deal with and that I'm dealing with now. Some things that I am about to share are personal but I love you all like Sisters
I'm 20 years old now and I have been dealing with weight and eating disorders since I was 16, the summer before my junior year
. I've done everything from diet pills to exercise...if you can think of it, I've probably been there and tried that. High school was just overwhelming for me emotionally and physically. I've always been an
avid swimmer however I stopped my sophomore year in high school to pursue other things.
To make a long story short...during my senior and junior years in high school my weight was 115-120 (always hip heavy) but I was wearing a size 5/6 no more than a 8. I'm now entering my junior year in college and I weigh 145
.
My best friend weighs like 100 or so more than I do and she constantly asks me why I'm so worried about my weight and why I often complain and I can understand her reasons for asking but this has been an issue since before I met her.
Well I've been rambling long enough however I just wanted to say that my most recent "diet plan" is taking Metabolife while trying to maintain a calorie intake 1000-1200.
If anyone has any suggestions please feel free to email me at fcjnb8@hotmail.com
