Am I Eating Too Much...?

11 months ago · 5 · Stress, +13


252

I've been eating until I'm only half satisfied. I want to make my legs thinner and prettier like other girls'. I do over 100 reps of lunges a day in attempts to thin out my thighs but I haven't had much of a result. I just ate half of an XL Hershey chocolate bar out of stress and hunger. I usually don't eat impulsively because I'm watching my diet but now I want more. I'm a natural glutton and have a sweet tooth but I've been holding back a lot. I'm unhappy with how I am and I'm scared that I'll only look worse if I eat until I'm full and satisfied...

    Honey, don't worry too much. You're okay as you already are. One "unhealthy" snack or meal isn't going to change anything. What's more important is taking care of yourself, even mentally. I know it can be hard not to think about these things, because we are constantly told to be skinnier or prettier, but try your best not to listen to this, okay? You are already pretty. Sending you love <3

      Thank you. I feel better hearing this. No one's told me that I'm too fat but I easily compare myself to others at school. My mom always tells me that I'm slim but I feel like she's exaggerating.

    Exercising daily to build muscle may help you stay on a healthy diet plan. After doing this for months without worrying about calories, my sweet tooth is gone and I mostly crave protein! Best of luck!

    The binges are part of the diet.

    Sounds like you have an eating/exercise disorder and/or body dysmorphia. Negative spirits like to make women starve themselves and hate their bodies. I'd suggest you seek therapy and eat three normal balanced meals a day in normal amounts. You need that to function. Stop weighing/measuring/looking at your body in the mirror unless it is truly necessary. Stop measuring your worth by your thinness.
