Eating Disorder General /EDG/

Binge eater/bulimic/whatever reporting in. Just had a pretty shameful episode after starving myself for a week straight.

I read some bullshit about how you can eat a shit ton of carbs after "depleting your glycogen" and not get fat since it's just refilling your glycogen. So I saw this as a good excuse to binge and just finished one of my most pathetic episodes to date.

I was hobbled over the kitchen counter with a full pack of breakfast waffles in one hand, a big ass cup of milk in the other, and some syrup. The fucking toaster couldn't make them fast enough. I was dousing them in syrup as they popped out two at a time and devouring them. Then I ravenously awaited for the next two to finish. I feel disgusted with myself

I've been binging for 2 weeks and just got my period after missing it last month

Make it stop

I've learned to live with the /binge/.

Just need to time it and make it a rare occurrence. Once a week. I make sure I have nowhere to be the next day. Eat regular-to-light during the week. Day of eat nothing for first several hours. Around evening, begin to drink heavily. Then eat wild amounts of everything. Chinese, pizza, sweets, etc.

Pass out. Make a huge egg sandwich with a pot of coffee in the morning. Don't eat the rest of the day. Binge complete.

Anyone have any good recipes for Miracle Rice?

report these threads and hide them, make Veeky Forums a non degenerate brain fucked place

I just wanna learn how to cook this shitty "rice" I got in a way that makes it edible.

This seems like you're just eating the same amount of calories as you would if you spread it out over two days. What's the point?

>I read some bullshit about how you can eat a shit ton of carbs after "depleting your glycogen" and not get fat since it's just refilling your glycogen. So I saw this as a good excuse to binge and just finished one of my most pathetic episodes to date.

this is only partly true

you gain back all the weight you lost in glycogen, so you have to diet enough to lose the glycogen then eat carbohydrates, so you're not eating to eat more, which you can just fucking do a nyways with any food

not eating for 6 days and eating two xl pizzas on the 7th day is essentially the same as eating normally for the week, as far as weight-gain goes. obviously there's more complicated chemical matters going on in your body when you don't eat food that long and then eat so much, but you get the jist

I legit follow the butterfield diet.

I pretty much eat only vegetables during the week and then binge the fuck out on saturday.

lmao

Not laughing at your issue Just the comparison to the video Just want to clarify.

it's a common 'coping' method for BED

a lot of people including myself are diagnosed with BED or some form of eating disorder and live with no major issues with a lot of self control and environmental changes

i definitely feel that binge eating disorder seems to be an extremely but oddly managable disorder

Waffles are actually high in fat and not high in carbs. Why do people have such massive problems identifying whether a food is high in fat or high in carbs? People don't usually binge on foods that are high in carbs. That would be rice, potatoes, pasta, beans.

Yes, carbs are burned off or stored as glycogen, but dietary fat in the available fuel mixture is stored as body fat while this is happening. So the only way to minimize fat storage is actually to minimize dietary fat. Carbs can be converted to fat but this only happens during massive overfeeding, not when eating at maintenance calories. Converting carbs to fat costs around 1 calorie per gram of carbs.

Is it still an eating disorder if you never feel any regret and don't get fat? I thought this was normal human behaviour.

I get eating binges without the starving periods

holy shit too real
Last night I ate
>8 quest bars, yes 8, fucking expensive and farty
>A full pack of string cheese
>A full 1700calorie pack of mixed nuts

And this was one of my smaller binges, I thought keto foods would keep me full, what a fool I was to expect to escape me BED.

Do you self diagnose with BED?
I have troubles with binging but always thought it had to do with the sizw of my stomach since I'm always hungry.
One thing that has helped me control the need to binge is the price of food. I'm trying to save money and when I see how much I would spend by ordering out I usually stop.

I feel like this crybaby cumdumpster attention whore shit is more applicable to Veeky Forums, /soc/ or /b/.

You're mentally ill, check into a clinic ASAP.

Actually mental illness is kind of a spectrum. If this behavior doesn't have any consequences regarding your health and lifestyle, I guess it can't be categorized as an illness.

Anorexics are a bigger turn off than tattoos.
To the gas chambers with you

>ITT
>fatasses with zero self control

This
Eat normally everyday you train your body to do it like quitting soda drinks or drinking more water or doing any healthy eating habits
And then if you truly have a "disorder" you need to see a specialist for proper nutrition.
Bad eating habits doesn't mean mental illness just like bad behavior doesn't mean autism or lack of understanding of consequences...

Why can I only think of the Metalocalypse episode where they go on a diet of "just one big fucking meal before bed" and how that was absolutely not what you should do

fucking stupid roasties dont bring youe emotional bullshit here ,i wanna learn to be a better cook and not want to hear how you daddy didnt love you and being womyn is so hard.

tldr roasties fuck off

I'm 5'11, 160lbs, 19 years old. Not fat by any means, quite fit actually. You simply do not understand what having an eating disorder is like.
I recovered from anorexia nearly two years ago, I was hospitalized because I was told my heart could stop any minute. After recovery, being forced to eat 6500 calories a day for months, I expected to go back to a normal life and stay at a normal weight. In a way I've stayed at my normal weight, though sometimes fluctuating +/- 10 pounds, I still always level around 160. But that's not my issue.

When you recover from anorexia, and this is true in 90% of cases, you experience something called extreme hunger. It's like never being full, even if you're stomach "feels" full, you're still hungry. Even if you've eaten 7000 calories in 2 hours, you're still starving. And not, "I could go for another slice of pie" starving, starving like you feel like you're going to die if you don't eat. Starving like you cannot focus on anything else except for your hunger. Starving like all sense of rationality goes away, all goals, ability to think clearly, all disappear and are replaced with a primitive need to eat. Though this subsides with time, I still experience it to this day. Sometimes it happens once a week, sometimes for weeks on end. I'll gain 15 pounds in a week just because I am so hungry, out of nowhere. I end up shedding it off because I have control after it subsides. And I've tried everything. A meal plan, keto, you name it. It's irrational, comes out of nowhere, and completely ruins my academic and social life.

So I strongly suggest you know what you're talking about before you comment. Yes it's true many people with BED probably are just fatasses with little control who have a food addiction, but there are many, like me, who have it as a result of years of restriction.

Thank you OP, reading these sad stories is the only reason I come to Veeky Forums.

holy shit. I swear eating disorders are all fucking made up by PRIVILIGED white girl princesses.

ya'll just want attention, fucking whores.

Work in a health food store and it's sad seeing people come in for quick fixes for their ED's. I haven't really binged in a minute but I definitely haven't gotten entirely back to depending to healthy eating. Discussing overeating with other people, however brief, has helped a lot though.

Go back to tumblr you basic bitches, you have to have an eating disorder because there isn't a single part of your personality that's worth any attention otherwise. Why do white girls always have to talk about ED's like they're some accessory that matches their handbags.

Felt good because I hadnt purged inawhile despite having a bad day here and there, then purged over a fucking 170 calorie granola bar.

S U F F E R I N G

Guys can have EDs also dumbshit.

>19yr guy with bullimia

If you're male and have an eating disorder you should be fucking ashamed

be honest
Did you dad molest you

Antidepressant at practically killed my binge eating. I feel full incredibly fast after being on high-dose snris

Sounds fuckin' awesome.

Last year I developed a system that worked pretty well. I'd eat very light during the week, then Friday night when I got off from work, it would just be a torrent of all the delicious shit I wanted to eat all week long, until I pass out. Unfortunately, I 've upset the balance and have started getting fat. Gotta try and tip the scales back.

Also, I spent weekends away with three other friends every so often, where we just eat like shit for three days straight. Sadly, those have been happening too frequently, and the worst part is that the food in the area where they live now isn't even that good.

I've dealt with EDG for ten years now. Like most disorders it comes in phases. Sometimes i can be "normal" for years before it comes back full force, most of the time in a side-effect fashion (read it's triggered again by something else).

Right now i managed to live with my issues by taking cooking course.

I realized that i was EDG'ing the fuck out because i couldn't cook for shit. So i was securing myself in the same "safe" foods that i knew how to cook / know they were safe because... i had no other base of knowledge or comparaison.

Leaving my safe zone by taking a course and realizing that cooking is easy as fuck and that it was also accessible to me helped me immensely.

Shitty post lad.

is it an eating disorder if i have acid reflux?

No. But having bad reflux can lead to actual disorders.

i think im on my way. can't eat anything but water

i dont think so, maybe the memory is still repressed!

Shitty post in a shit thread. Veeky Forums shouldn't be the place for snowflakes to discuss their mental disorders, eds and alcoholism included.
