  • Are my parents rich and does that make me a crybaby for my problems?

    This is not me seeking attention. I'm just confused because of a few comments people have made.

    I'm 13 and at school classmates have been making remarks on how I'm probably rich, even if they don't know me well.

    My parents house has a value of 1500000 euros and we also have a beach house which is worth 1000000, both with no mortgage. My dad is a financial trader. I have a sailboat, expensive skiis and equipment and have been taking all sorts of extracurriculars since I was 1 years old. I go to a private school, have a lot of designer clothes and travel a lot, even going to 5 star resorts in places like mauritius and the carribean. My dad collects original antique maps.

    We eat out a lot and my parents don't seem to have trouble paying any bills and similar though we conduct an expensive lifestyle.

    The thing is: my dad is only EVER worried about work. Even if he has enough he always wants more money and works 15/19 hours a day.

    I have been cutting myself since age 11 (because of certain things that happened to me at school) and also had problems with drinking. I am anorexic, have been hospitalized for 4 months and struggle with severe autolesionism. My parents treat me horribly, all they care about is that I go well in school and keep the family's name high resorting to verbally abusing me and beating me.

    It has made me very perfectionist, feeding into my anorexia.

    I am now a hospital outpatient and have constant psychiatric and psychological help... Including a social helper for 8 hours a week.

    Confiding in a person she told everyone and a lot of people said things along te lines of: you're just a rich little girl, go talk to someone who has real problems...

    Do you think I'm just a crybaby? And are my parents actually rich?

  • How much weight will I lose eating 200kcal a day?

    DON'T tell me it's unhealthy! I'm here for answers, please spare me the lecture.

    How much weight will I lose every week considering I already am underweight with a BMI of 16/16.5.

  • Weight loss/ED curiosity?

    Okay, I'm not asking this because I want to do it so I would appreciate an answer.

    At what rate does an anorexic teenager lose weight at the beggining of anorexia eating about 200kcal a week? Doesn't their body go into starvation mode? Or does that not apply when you're under a certain weight? Please be detailed, I actually need the research for a health class essay. One of the questions in the assignment is: how does anorexia nervosa influence a person's body (BMR, weight and mentality)?

    I know the answer to mentality but please help me on the other two :)

  • How much should I weight at 5' 8?

    And what size should I be?

  • How much weight will I lose?

    I am drinking one ensure plus drink a day but it is an Italian one and the nutrition is in between the ensure and the ensure plus shakes (also in kcal: it has 300, not 350).. Other than that I eat one babybel and 5 strawberries at breakfast, 5 ounces of plain green salad with some carrots and beans (or seaweed) and 5 strawberries at lunch and the same as lunch for dinner. It amounts to max. 600kcal a day.

    My eating habits for the last 3 weeks have been eating normally one day and then feeling guilty the next and fasting a day. Then eating normally the day after and so on with this cycle. If not that eating 800/900kcal a day for 4/5 straight days in between the cycle. I can't do that anymore though because the feeling of guilt just got worse and brought to cutting and nervous breakdowns.

    Don't tell me it is unhealthy, I'm probably being hospitalized for anorexia (again. I was dismissed on the 7th of July after 4 months in a hospital) in a few weeks and I'm an outpatient anyway so I already have a psychiatrist, nutritionist and psychologist to tell me that. Apparently I have dysmorphia though I don't really believe it because I know I really look fat and it's not an illusion. I also do not believe that I have an illness, my brain is perfectly healthy.

    I live in Italy but I am now in the states so for the next week I won't have medical support. I can barely handle eating this much and I see it as a huge amount so also please don't tell me to eat more until I get back to Italy, I can't manage it.

    I am 13years old, 5.8feet tall and weigh 103lbs.

    How much weight would I lose weekly?

    I would really appreciate a straight answer and I'm not looking for attention but I really need answers so could you please flag as interesting so I get more answers? I really need help. I'm terrified of my weight and if I don't lose any I'll never be happy.

    Thank you for reading, I actually feel guilty for having asked to flag as interesting. I'm sorry.

  • Is it normal to be a size 0 at 5'7?

    It's not really my natural size, that would be a size 8-10 and people already said I was skinny. I dieted a lot to achieve the size 0, do you think it's too low?

  • Problems with a boy... Please help me! I don't know what to do... ?

    I've been best friends with a boy for a while now and we love each other (or at least I thought he loved me). He actually told me that he loves me and constantly repeats it (even yesterday) along with saying sweet things. He's not a bad person, I'm not going to go into details but I have many factors to prove this.

    We are now both on holiday and we decided we should probably start dating in September though it really wouldn't change anything in our relationship since we already act like boyfriend and girlfriend.

    Here's the catch: earlier this morning I was getting really bored so I googled his name and I found his yahoo account... In the last question he asked (which was posted 3 days ago) he stated that he now has a girlfriend and asks how to make her feel physical pleasure in there relationship... Now I sent him a message on Facebook simply asking him if he has a girlfriend (saying that I was wondering because I came across this question). He hasn't answered yet because it's still early and he's probably still sleeping...

    Between when he posted the question and today he has continued saying he loves me and now I really don't know what to think. I love him and he had made it clear that he loves me too so I'm confused and feel kind of hurt...

    Also since we weren't officialy dating I can't say he cheated on me but I do feel sort of betrayed... Please tell me what to do... Is it possible that maybe I'm just being paranoid and the question didn't mean anything? Please help..:

  • Will I have gained weight today?

    I have an ED so please don't tell me that my eating habits are unhealthy... I know that. I am already eating more than I used to and am slowly getting better but I still have trouble eating and the doctors know this. I'm also still severely underweight (BMI: 15.6) and only got out of the clinic (after 4 months) a little less than 3 weeks ago...

    So, this is what happened: I eat about 600kcal a day but today I got this urge because I felt starved and ate a coconut pastry, 3 almond/marzapan pastries, a whipped cream one and a chocolate one... I don't even know what I was thinking and I feel really guilty... They were all small and I would say that they are about 600kcal... I also took 2 diuretics... If after this I go back to my 600kcal a day diet will I have gained weight?

  • Am I too skinny? Please tell me your opinions; I'm not fishing for compliments, I'm truly confused.?

    At school many people have been calling me ematiated and too thin. My parents also told me that I look ridiculously skinny and sick. I used to weigh 124 lbs a month ago and people already told me I was really skinny. I know I just asked this but I realized I was using an incorrect weight converter (from kg) so the weight I had said was wrong. I am 5' 7" tall and currently weigh 102 lbs. I am a size 00, however I see myself fat. Am I truly too thin? Or are people exaggerating? And could you please tell me my bmi? Thank you :)
