Also remember that muscle weighs more than fat....but makes you look like you weigh less.....so the better shape you get into the more you might end up actually weighing yet you will look a lot better.....from that point, then weight loss will start by working off even more of any fat that is left.

Weighing one's self after eating & fight after drinking also will add the total weight of what was eaten because it's sitting in your stomach & hadn't been broken down & processed by the body. Much better to weigh in the morning.....though I like to weigh myself after I've been working out in the yard & sweating out all the water in my body...that isn't a true weight either...but it usually makes me feel a lot better about what I really weigh.....then I drink a ton of water....I don't weigh until after my body has stabilized....usually the next morning.....that's why weight loss through laxatives is a fake weight because it's only fluid loss that is registered....it has nothing to do with actual REAL weight loss.

Also what AngelicGoldfish says is true....there is always something deeper going on that needs to be processed when we are having eating issues......normally things that are stressful to us are at the bottom of ED's & once they are processed, the need for the ED will be controlled also.....though we are always going to watch weight to make sure we are healthy, the control issues that take the weight down to an unhealthy level will be controlled.
