Hello- i recovered from anorexia 5 years ago and ever since i hvea had many problems
( horrible PMS, IBS and a hard time losing weight) My question is after one recovers, does your metabolism permanantly not function as well? Can hypnosis or something else help return to normal. i eat compeltely healthy- macrobiotic and fish and I walk 4 hours a day, but for some reason I can never seem to lose the weight ever since my recovery- any onw who is knowledgeable on this? I have done lots of research but to not much avail.

You caused some long-term problems for your metabolism with the anorexia. Some of the problems (such as possible cardiac damage) will be with you for the rest of your life. Some of the other probles will fade over time. However, five years later...I'd sugeest a visit to your doctor for a referral to a specialist.

u have to burn off the calories u take in walkin alone wont do it. do some light weight lifting. running. swimming is good. how much weight have u put on n how much are u wanting to take off. seems like ur lookin for an easy way to get back into an eating disorder ..I have anorexia n am tryn to beat it but I cant seem to. Its a # game with me ..I always was around 96lbs took bipolar meds n got up to 181lbs n now I am at 165lbs (i am 5ft 5 so it dont look fat to others but to me it does) http://www.myspace.com/danys187 take a look its just i cant stand it 150-140 would b good for me right now. they did put me on prescrip diet pills but they dont know i dump'd the meds a few months back.
