I know it's so very hard when food is the enemy. We have to eat to survive but when we eat we get a billion reasons not to. The foods are fattening, or toxic, or clog arteries, or God knows. It's scary! I know. And food IS an addiction! People don't believe that who aren't addicted but it's TRUE!
So, my advice to you is to drink water when you need to feel full or put something in your mouth. If that doesn't work, when you get the urge to go downstairs and dig for something to eat? Exercise. Yep! Jog in place, do jumping jacks. Whatever to keep you too tired to go to the fridge.
I know everybody is going to tell you that you're not fat. And I know deep down inside you believe that's true. I promise you're not doing yourself any favors by sometimes binging because it'll mess up your stomach lining and esophagus. Fat isn't pretty, but neither is a girl who has holes in her esophagus and scars from surgery to fix it all. Trust me.
You'll be just fine. Just keep working at it. If you mess up one night, forget about it! Go on to the next night. You can't change the past, so keep working at the future. Good luck, princess!!

Do you relaize that when you dont eat regularly you end up scewing up your metabolism(which is what helps your body burn calories and fat). You will be better off just eating three meals a day...with things that fill you up and are healthy. You are young and you dont realize what you are doing to your own body. Do you one day want to have healthy children and be a heathy mom to take care of them..dont screw up your body because anorexia and binging leads to missed periods, and perhaps no period!.You need your period it means you are a healthy girl. I dont know how old you are but if nonetheless you need all these vitamins from food to be strong and keep your brain strong...dont you want to be the best that you can be? So, I am very sure that once you start eating 3 meals a day...you will be at a perfect weight...what you are supposed to be...BUT if you already have lost control PLEASE seek help before its too late

Ugh, I can totally relate to you. I have an eating disorder and restricting and bingeing is hell. I do exactly what you do by burning off the calories by exercising. I have become so sick of doing it and eventually it catches up with you and you feel soo sick. You do have an eating disorder. You need to get treatment. I know it sounds scary, but you'll feel so much more in control when you establish healthy eating habits.
Good luck.
