Crazy Diet/ Starving Myself?

. asked:


I’ve been on this crazy yo-yo diet for about a year now and I sorta starve myself for days at a time. But now I don’t get my period anymore, not that it ever showed up on time when I did eat, but I haven’t gotten it in like 4 months in a row now and I’m really scared and not sure what to do.

    Lose weight, Lose Fat

    HI !

    You should take a PG test to be sure.

    When a person looses a large amount of body fat in a short amount of time, you will stop or miss your period.

    Need to lose weight?

    Get off the diet and eat normally. People always stated that if you do these stupid diets your body will pay the price, now you know.

    Talk to your parents about seeing a doctor, and if you feel like you can’t talk to your parents, go see a doctor yourself. There are tons of helplines you can call to arrange meetings with those who can help you best.

    Metabolism and Your Weight

    Stress and yo-yo ing of our weights do crazy stuff. Try to eat at the minimum 1000 calories a day. You will lose weight off of that low number but not suffer as many adverse effects.

    This is exactly what happened to me 4 months ago to.
    I was on a diet for 6 months straight starving myself, and only eat like maybe, maybe 600 calories a day and my period stopped for 3 months straight and my mom took me to a doc and they sad i was “bulimic” which i wasn’t…but i hadn’t been the proper nutrition i was needing. So…i started eating a lot more than usual, not much because i didn’t want to have a massive weight gain change, but i started eating more but healthier foods and i got my period back eventually. So just start eating a lot better properly and you’ll be fine

    Need to lose weight?

    It’s sounds like you have anorexia, and you have bigger problems than your “yo-yo diet.” People don’t starve themselves just to lose weight. Think about potential underlying causes of this. Do you really think that losing weight will make you happier? Successful? What is the real goal here? These are questions you must ask yourself because it’s almost never weight-loss.
    Trust me, I’ve been dealing with anorexia for almost two years now. I’ve been through it all: inpatient hospitalization, day treatment, and intensive outpatient care. Not to mention the individual and family therapy. I’m no doctor, but it sounds like you have an eating disorder, and spiraling out of control. It is possible that you are underweight, but many people with eating disorders who lose their periods and have other health defects have a healthy weight. I, for instance, have a healthy weight and I haven’t had my period in about four months as well (I’m still symptomatic.) Maybe talk to your doctor or a family member about getting some help because it sounds like you need help.
    Hope this helps, and I wish you the best of luck in everything! Stay strong!
