I was browsing through a friend's page a few minutes ago, and checked out his friend's page. He only has one other friend listed--and she (as I already knew) is definitely not on recovery

Okay. Here's my thoughts on everything that's been going on lately. I warn you in advance for my verboseness, and for me trying to draw conclusions on your life based on the incomplete knowledge that I know abtouy ou through livejournal

All these stressors in your life at the moment DO build up. But i can promise you that it won't be like this forever. Ican also promise you that you have the strength and will to get through any of this, whether you believe that or not. Your resilience and perseverance levels lie far beyond a normal person's. So does your intellect. I know that you wouldn't back away in the face of these challenges. I know you'll charge through them with great success, as usual.
Life is not meant to feel like this....life is meant to be enjoyed. I just want the very best for you because you really do deserve it.
As always, you can call me at anytime. We can discuss this over the phone, plus i would love to hear from you!!!
Fasting doesn't work so well...I've tried it...First, most of the weight you lose is water weight, rather than fat, sorta like laxatives...they don't work as well as the numbers seem to indicate. Second, it causes a physiological response to binge...You can't not eat forever :P
Fasting sucks. I did it a couple times (not for very long) and the second time I almost passed out in front of my friends. It does not go well with exercise.
Argh. I passed out this spring, and I wasn't even fasting (or heavily restricting either). I managed to keep walking, and fell down the stairs half-a-dozen times.
Yikes! Yeah, the one time I did actually pass out, I was not fasting, either. I had many close calls with getting woozy and almost passing out, but the one time I actually did was at a friend's house, in front of like 4 or 5 of my friends. One second I was getting up to go into a different room, and the next I was on the floor wondering what happened.
Exactly. I knew that I was headed for the bathroom downstairs...I just didnt' realize that my legs had stopped obeying me, and my body didn't even register movement. I ran into the steel door--twice (left some ugly bruises), and didn't even FEEL it.
Scary.
You have to wonder, though...after all the crap we put our bodies through...should we really be surprised that it gives out every once in a while?
Remember when you asked how to get your metabolism to go up? Well, fasting is a surefire way to do just the opposite. It slows your body down so it can survive the deprivation, and it takes forever and a day to get it back up.
In short, if you love you like we do, don't do it.

The weight loss isnt worth it.
And it isn't even real.

I have no desire to repeat that experience.

Thanks for the reminder.
I won't do it. It's too big of a backward step...I've come too far.
