Question Posted Wednesday July 13 2005, 11:59 pm

You might really not want to answer this question and i can understand completely if you don't but i thought id give it a try....I read in some of your previous advice that you were anorexic earlier and i am sort of in that position right now. I'm pretty sure i have a thyroid problem becuase it runs in my family, like every woman has it, but were not sure yet so i am overweight. I run in the mornings and play sports but im still not happy so sometimes i dont eat for like a week at a time, then i eat, then i dont, and so on. so i guess what im asking is were you in a similar position as me. i know i need to get help but all i need from you is a little ive been there kinda thing. thanks

Yeah I've been there. I played sports, mainly soccer and softball, so even though I excercised a lot, I still felt really uncomfortable with weight and stuff. I mean during soccer, I ran throughout the whole game, plus during practices all we did was run, and stretch, I mean talk about a better way to excercise. Then during softball of course there were running excercises, there was running during the game, we stretched our legs and arms, I played second base, and every once in a while if nobody was really playing their position behind me I got stuck running for the ball, and still I excercised, I played the sports, and I was really uncomfortable with my weight. I got down to maybe 50lbs before I realized what I was doing to myself, of course I think the psychiatrist helped too. But if you do end up getting help make sure you're comfortable with whoever it is giving you the help, because one of my "shrinks" was really creepy and I didn't like him one bit so I wouldn't go near him unless my mom was with me, the other one I liked a lot, she was really nice to me and she had kid stuff in there, and she wouldn't make me talk unless I wanted to (I was shy when I was younger).
But yeah, if you ever need to talk I'm here, because like I said, been there don't that, got over it, and I know I'm not the skinniest person now, and I don't care anymore, I've learned to live. But if you do start up with anorexia your metabolism will slow down and you'll end up gaining more weight rather than losing any at all. So just a thought to think about. Well hope I helped :-), good luck with everything, and please, don't do what I did.
