I went on a diet the first of the new year. I decided to try the South Beach diet. I had so much fun loosing weight the first 2 weeks I decided to not advance on the diet like your supposed to do. I feel okay. I started out weighing 186 lbs. I am 5 ft 6. Female. Now I am down to 149. From a size 16 to a 10/12. Well this is the issue. I am kind of afraid of when I get to my goal which is 130. I don't want to gain back any weight. I have been really strict with my diet. I am exercising every day. I have gotten to where I sometimes don't even eat a salad, I will just eat the protein, Ham alone. Realistically I think I am eating less than 500 calories per day. I think things are okay, but in a way I think I might be getting a little borderline with something that isn't healthy. Nobody has said anything, because right now I look okay.
Just wanted to voice this. There isn't anyone around here that I could mention this to.
Thanks. :wave:

Hi Pamperedglitter,

Sorry to say, but it definitely sounds like you're at the first stages of anorexia. :eek: Low calorie intake and fear of gaining weight are both symptoms. If you continue down this path, trust me, no weight will ever be low enough. There is usually an emotional issue behind it all. Please get help while you're ahead, and don't let this disease take over your life!!!

Take care,

yes!! i agree with nova!! but u still have hope! i mean, ur realizing ur doing this now, so that means, if u just try to eat more cals in a day and be happy with urself, u wont go down the nasty road of h***!!!

Thanks for the replies. I kind of felt like it was a problem. But I have told myself when I loose enough weight, I will start to eat healthy. I still have 19 more lbs to go. I just have never had such a fear of putting back on weight.
You all are terrific. Hugs to you!{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{hug!}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}
