Hi all. I'm starting to get those feelings back again. I've taken so much already and my stomach has been cramping a little from it. My body isn't used to this yet so I am spending a lot of time walking to the bathroom. You'd think that giving my body what it longs for, my body would want to keep the food in! Getting those feelings back again  (caution) Nope, seems that's maybe a shock to my system having so much now, LOL. My GI tract is confused and saying, "Hey, what is this?! Get it the heck out!" Oh well, at least this is a natural cause and not pill-induced. Whether I want to or not, I am planning to eat more. I plan to tell my T that tomorrow too. I've been thinking about that--I'll have to post the outcome of our appointment . Now, when you started out reading my post, what were you thinking? Getting those feelings back again  (caution) Getting those feelings back again  (caution) Did you catch on to my wink icon in the title? Hope nobody minds my attempt at the light side of an eating disorder. Hmmm, no pun intended there, either. Sorry if this offends anybody, but I thought most would/could have some fun with this. After all, this is a behavior-improvement on my part. Something to celebrate! I'll order Pizza!

Yours was the first post I read to day. I saw your subject line and thought, "Inkblot was doing so good - I hope she is okay" It sounds like you are. Getting those feelings back again  (caution) Getting those feelings back again  (caution)

The body tends to resist change. It's like it has some kind of internal thermostat that tries to maintain the status quo. When someone who is overweight starts to diet, the body reduces its basal metabolic rate to try to keep what it has stored up. It can be hard to increase what you eat and gain weight too, as the body speeds up its BMR and, as you are experiencing, does what it can to resist change. But keep up what you are doing and it will adjust.

Since rapid or frequent weight fluctuations are more harmful than being under- or overweight, it seems to make sense for the body to react that way.

It sounds like you are going great! Do let us know how your appointment goes. Let's have some pizza! I like parties! Getting those feelings back again  (caution)

LOL! hahaha, the pun was funny. I'm glad you poke fun at having an eating disorder. I do it all the time when I'm around people who know about mine. Sometimes I imagine that people get offended by the jokes I make, but I can't help it. It just makes me less sad about being bulimic. When my friends and I go eat, I tell them what I'm eating will definately taste better the second time around.

I'm glad you're fixin' over it.

peace easy bay-baies!!!
