A vague question I think that many people don't realize that they have a eating disorder.

[Celine's Wife]

I totally agree. Like even when I thought I was over it, I truly wasn't and even toady I think I still have a disorder of sorts without knowing it

I'm sure sorry and hope you can overcome it Take care of yourself

An eating disorder to me is a sad thing, but tho the victims overcome it with hardwork. But it takes patience..! I don't know anything of eating disorders,but from what I heard it can be bad.

I understand and that has to be hard, very sad

I had a eating disorder for a long time. Today I suffer the consequences of it. I'm pretty much anemic and I may not be able to have children. Very hard to get over this, thank got I did it.

One thing I learned from this: teenagers can be very cruel, even to their best friends. They say you are ugly, nobody is gonna love you and you belive them, you fell useless, worthless. There is no way out, you need to punish yourself because you feel it's all your fault. And the pain never goes away.

It's a nightmare. I don't wish it would happen not even to the worst person on heart. Thank God for Celine who was always by my side, if it wasn't for her I don't know what I would have done. And thank Gog for my best friend who helped me more than she will ever know.

I'm really short, 5'1 so getting down to like 90 pounds with clothes on isn't as drastic as it sounds cause I havea small frame.... but the scary part was it only took like 3 months to get there.... Celine actually got me out of it.... when I heard ANDHC on the radio it made me decide to change things... but there are lasting effevts only froma year of it.... I still really don't eat properly.. I usually skip lunch and breakfast and I always feel tired cause I'm pretty sure my body lacks essential nutrients it needs.

Wow, that is scary I'm sure happy Celine helped you so much and hope it gets easier with time

[wahaj]

i wouldn't go as far as saying i have a disorder....but i do comfort eat....which needs to be sorted in itself....as food isn't there for comfort.

[live to love]

I know what you mean..I used to do that and didn't want to gain weight so i stopped and went into the stage in which i didn't want anything because i hated feeling anything in my stomach....i didnt even drink water for about a week and excercised 4 hours a day(sometimes id be working out at 3 in the morning). i didnt realize what i was doing. my parents have always monitored what we eat whick i took as a subliminal message that i was too big..which apparently i wasnt. somehow i ended up eating and unfortunately felt that i had to throw up and thats how ive been for the past 4 years.

 

its scary when i think back and im still scared because im not out of the woods yet. its sad beacuse i started feeling the need to control my body in about grade 4. im currently seeing a counsellor and will finally be getting treatment. i dont know what kind of damage ive done yet and i undertsnd what you may be going through celineswife...its hard and ihave great friends who help me and i know ill continue to support me so i can get better

 

celine has also helped me alot. she is a caring, loving , wonderful person and that comes out in her voice and music...i would listen to it and cry after i purged or felt weak from excercising, and now ill be listening to it as i happily eat a meal

I can relate to what you said about cruelty esp during adolescences and what other people say.

 

While growing up my mother told me if I didn't lose weight, I would never have a boyfriend. I had a close friend who was stick thin and I had curves and developed at an early age.

Needless to say between the comments by my mother and the teasing by peers , I would gorge myself while babysitting and then throw up.

This happened when eating disorders weren't discussed or well known except for Karen Carpenter. I suppose her death scared me to the point I thought sticking my finger down my throat wasn't fun or healthy.

I did not have a eating disorder, but got a serious obsession with healthy eating and the main one was exercise, i was at the gym everyday sometimes all day for a good year, totally obsessed with the way i looked, in the end i was that fit and muscular i hated that too so it was a hard time, trying to find out what look would make me happy, still looking....

[Celine's Wife]

I don't even remember making this topic!!! HHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAA no wonder, it's ben like 2 years since I made it!!!

[celinefanonline]

Only a doctor can tell you if you have an eating disorder. And just so you know, you an still have an eating disorder and be "over weight". You don't magically have an eating disorder as soon as you hit a certain weight. Besides that, OCD is an eating disorder that mkaes you GAIN weight.

 

As for me? I've had an eating disorder for 5 years now. I'm in recovery currently. I'm not going to post my lowest weight or my height for fear that it might "trigger" people. I was about 30 pounds under-weight, though, at one time. It's terrible. I would not wish it on ANYONE. Once the process begins, it's an ugly cycle. And now...I'm dealing with the effects of anorexia and bulimia. My immune system is shot, my metabolism is all messed up, I have anemia, I have a lot of menstrual problems now (because I lost my period for a year), I'm always weak and tired, I have vocal problems...and more.

 

It's not fun. It's not a diet. It's terrible. And whether it's about control, anger, or just wanting to look like a pretty celebrity -- it's dangerous and deadly.

 

I still have problems with it coming back. I've had problems with eating my entire life, really. Now I'm looking at food not as a chore, but as an enjoyment. That mindset is going to take a while. I don't know when you can say "I don't have an eating disorder"...

 

Anyway.

 

Celine, of course, has helped me tremendously in this area. Tremendously. In many others as well...

America has an obsession with weight. It doesn't matter what size you are....someone will find a way to criticize you. Being such a fan of the late Karen Carpenter, I have read TONS on eating disorders.

 

People--just be happy with who you are, and weight DOES NOT matter. Something like this should not take any lives---we lost one of the greatest voices of all time due to it.

i hate hwne ppl criticize you about your weight, i menad if you're a bit fat...is your body!!and if you're happy with it then who cares!!as long as you're healty everything is ok!! when i was younger i was mmm a little fat and some of my friends and even my cousing made fun of me..it was terrible but then i get sick i don't remember the name of the illnes anyway i lose weight...a lot now i was "normal" since then i'm in my normal weight but i think that havingan eating disorder can be very sad and that's when you really need your family and friends

[angel_christ]

Well I'm a bit worry about the lower parts of my body. My legs are too big. My body is a bit weird actually. It's like the Upper of mine is a slim person and the lower is a fat person.

I prefer exercising anyway. I don't like the feeling of forcing yourself to vomit. I frequently had stomache and the only way to cure it quickly and effectively is to vomit. It felt terrible!!

[tativale]

All those years .... and I never noticed this topic... lol anyway.... I think it's really sad.

 

I don't have a eatting desorded -- never did -- lol I'm and was like the one who like to eat LOL I'm more into eatiing things that are good for health instead of worrying about anything else. I'm on diet right now 'cause I'm over my weight and it's not a thing I put inside my heard hehe I'm really, the doctor told me to loose some weights. I think we just have to learn how to eat. We can eat many things without gaining weight when we learn what to eat.

 

I think today people are obseceded with their bodies. Even the models are more thinner than ever. It's really scary. I always thought Celine was very thin like a model, but looking now those women today, Celine is away fatter than those models for eg. People should care less about their appearance and care more about their inside - their soul.
