Some one thought that I was anarexic/belemic, but really I eat a lot, and I didn't know it, but the cheese had mold on it. I tried to be nice once I saw the cheese in the package being white and green in color. It was that kind of mexican cheese that's supposed to be 2 diff colors, so I didn't look that hard at first.
I ate like BBQ sandwich, a pack of shrimp and noodles, and then cheese toast. The woman I was with said I eat like a bird, and I needed to eat more. That's when I started throwing up a lot.
I went to the psychologist, and the psychologist thought that I was making the story up at first. It really ticked me off and offended me too, because the guy was like "let me see you eat. You're eating really good right now." Then he said I might be just trying to hide it. He then kept me at an anarexia/belemia/alcoholic rehab center.
I was so ticked off and offended. It made me want to commit suicide.
Ya'll don't understand. I used to eat over 10k calories a meal. The woman is about 90 yrs old, and has dementia and alzheimers. She just thinks I eat nothing, because every time I eat, she forgets the first thing I ate.

Things like this are actually really frustrating. I remember on a few occasions I'd be eating a dinner that my mom made and after the first serving I was reasonably full (I wasn't stuffed but I understood that that is ok/healthy and I had already consumed more than enough from a nutritionist's standpoint) and my mom was concerned when I didn't want another helping... and was worried I might have a problem. Meanwhile I've NEVER been someone to undereat... not since I'm a baby lol

I don't do much so I don't really eat much, plus I'm skinny, and my mom use to always think there was something up with me and tried to force me to eat. Yeah its really frustrating but dang thats sucks.

well, you guys are from america, so chances are that they consider you anorexic if you don't look like this:

come to asia and you'll probably be considered overweight

So for all you fast metabolism people, do you guys have a high alcohol tolerance?

It is true in theory

It is true in theory I have a fast metabolism as well (5'7'' and 125 lbs) and I can drink more than I look. But back on topic, I just eat more frequently but in small portions which makes people think I don't eat a lot because they don't know about the frequency.
|
it's "anorexia", "anorexic", "bulimia", and "bulimic" but yeah that sucks, I have no idea how you can prove something like that other than being patient
|
I'm fat, and my mom insists that I finish my meals. Apparently, as long as it's comprised of healthy foods, she doesn't give a crap the amount of calories that's in the meal.

if you are being forced to see a psychologist because of your weight, tell them the truth and object to your treatment and their assumptions. if you just sit there and stew and think that you are powerless to change your situation, the psychologist will assume you are hiding something. you need to engage them in a dialogue where you are the one setting the tone and topic, not them. i'm not even talking about "convincing" them of anything, but of controlling the conversation.
btw if you are extremely skinny and your family worries about it, maybe you should eat some more :S
|
looks like you are going to have to put on some weight (muscles would be nice!)
|
get a video camera and record a week of your life. make sure u take pictures of your poop. send it to the psychologist and stop paying for nothing.

These healthy foods wouldnt help you if you're not being physically active to combat that overweight or obesity problem. That actually reminds me of my aunt, he would feed her kid(Hes 11) thinking that he would aid in his growth. and what-not.. Well obviously its having the opposite effect.
Then when they sort of acknowledge that the fact he is obviously overweight and will probably be obese, she insists he eat. Probably the most disturbing part is when she basically forces him to eat even though he either refuses or is full. Give the kid a break, he just ate Mcdonalds and not even 3 hours later insist he eat dinner?
And I thought anorexia was just related to women. Damn stereotypes.

I have a fast metabolism and yes I do. I can quite easily drink people a lot bigger than I am under the table.
I also have the problem where people think im anoerexic because I am quite skinny. However I know that I eat enough, so it doesn't bother me.

Must be great to have fast metabolism, I get full relatively quickly. And Im not skinny (182CM/86KG). Oh yea, I have the worst alcohol tolerance ever, to the point of embarrassment. Even though Im very close at the "legal" drinking age, I cant chug a bottle of Tsingtao without getting red or feeling like complete shit.
Not to mention that I am Asian.

Yes, I do

Grow some balls and say fuck off when they send you to the shrink?
|
Wow that sucks! but you must also consider there's alot of people that really ARE anorexic that would lie about it and/or not even realize how dangerous it can be so the psychiatrist was just doing his job.
