Hello...nice to meet you! Eh...I was a little hesitant to register in the forum but now I think it's a good idea because I lack motivation most of the time. :ack2:

Anyway, I have a 'history' of bulimia, overeating with anorexic episodes which I regret so much. It was probably the toughest period of my life and now I'm again overweight but I made a decision to change my life and be healthy for some months now.

:seeya:
 
Start a diary as soon as possible. Visit some diaries. Start making friends and you will find that this place can be the best thing for support!
 
That is what I need most. I'm 16, 74 kilograms, last time I weighed myself a few months ago but I believe I've lost some weight since then! about 165-167 cm height. My BMI is around 27 :(.
I do exercise and try hard to eat healthy and rationally.

If I manage to lose 10 kg by the end of this year, I'll be very happy!
 
I am sorry i am no good with the conversion on Kilos and Centimeters so I can't really tell where you are starting from.
 
Oh! My fault! I tend to forget these things!

So here I go:

Age 16
Weight 162.8 lbs but it might be lower than that.
Height 5.42 feet

Hope these are as accurate as possible.:willy_nilly:
 
Minus the age you are exactly where I want to be currently! LOL
When you say that you try to eat healthier can you be more specific?
Are you in any school sports?
And (just curious) are you home schooled? Since right now would be the middle of the school day?
go to Fitday.com or even Sparkspeople.com and plug in all your stats and it should give you a good idea of what to shoot for. Without really knowing anything about you I can't give any specifics. Except this. You need to remember that you are still in your critical 'growing' years so you need to make sure to maintian your nutrition thru-out this whole experiance.
 
*sigh* I know, that's why I think I totally blew it with the bulimia thingy.

And no, I like in Europe, in Romania, specifically and now it's about 5. 45 PM here. I go to high school, which is a stress factor for me because I constantly worry about my grades.

No I am not into sports but I try to exercise by running, doing aerobics twice a week with an instructor. I walk everyday A LOT from school to home and carry a heavy backpack (I have to carry my books and notebooks).

Healthy? Well...vegetables, anything will do. Carrots, cucumbers, tomatoes, cabbage. Then I try to eat fresh fruits, mostly apples. For breakfast, I like cereals and eat 'Nestle Fitness' and a cup of cappucino (how good is that? maybe it's not a good idea!)
I eat poultry and fish (tuna, salmon etc) and try to keep away from bread. Sometimes, for lunch I have two boiled eggs and a lot of fresh legumes. I don't know how to portion them correctly.

I will make a diary and try to figure out what I'm doing wrong and right. :rant:
 
Okay cool so another friend that is living in Europe! I sooo need to visit over there someday. LOL
Anyhow your right the bulimia thing did not do you any favors. It probably seriously missed up your metabolism. Now your gonna have to work it back to normal.
Your diet sounds okay if not a bit shy of protein. Without knowing exactly how much your eating it is hard for me to say you need to do this or that.
Get that diary started and I will help you along as much as I can. I am no expert and I have my off days but I do have my experiances to back me up.
I'll be looking for your new diary.
Right now I gotta go.
Here it is 11 am and my little boy (he is 5) is wanting his lunch! LOL
 
Haha! Indeed you should!

Sparkspeople wasn't good for under 18 so I found sparksteens. I can't wait to start this once I get a little bit of free time from school (lots of tests).

Glad you found one that will work for you.
And your right..........school comes first. What grade are you in? I am thinking that you must be in 10th or 11th grade. Do you like school? I always did. I could have done much better had I disciplined myself better and really tried harder. But for me school was much more of a social thing.
 
I'm in 9th grade right now but school will be over in less than a month!
I've always liked school but not so much now, it's too much Math, Physics and Informatics! Whef!
My biggest passion is creative writing and I will hopefully become a bilingual writer someday :p

Social thing? Not so much but I try to get along with my classmates. :D
 
What is informatics?
It has been almost 20 years since I graduated high school! LOL
So I can only imagine how much more difficult it had gotten. I really wish that I would have tried harder but alas it is as they say hind sight is 20/20.
At least I have all my life experiances to guide me along. *sigh*
It is good that you like school. And you write very well so I could understand how you could do very well as a bilinigual writer.
 
Thanks! I had good teachers. Informatics...study of information, you could call it Computer Science too. I've just drank a lot...maybe too much water. Is there such thing as too much water?
 
Hey Zero101!

How are you? Welcome to the forum! Is it right that english is ur second language?! Because you write fluently! Wish I could learn another language as well as you!

Yeah bulimia and anorexic are some of the worst things to do for your health... but it sounds like your getting on the right track now with sensible eating and exercise. Making a diary is a really good idea too.

Good luck and see you around

x take care x
 
Thank you. And yes it is my second language. My problem is that I don't seem to have the ability to learn other languages like French as well. lol.
I hope so and this forum has gotten me quite motivated. :p
