[mangogirl805]

Hey Robin, you seem like a really awesome person, and you're really inspirational to me. I'm glad that you're doing better now.

[ThePowerInYouNow]

You can beat it!!!! I did! Never, Never, Never give up hope. Check my channel, I want to help!

"Most people exercise to keep those extra pounds at bay..."

I wish most people set performance related goals, as opposed to goals that are only focused on aesthetics. I feel much more fulfilled and satisfied with my body now that I aim for being able to get stronger (squat 2x bodyweight, etc.) instead of trying to be X number of pounds.

hey wats wrost throwing up bulimia or exercise bulimia???

[makemeskinny3]

@juicyjujubean14 there's no worse, they both can kill you and put you in soo many medical situations. and frankly it just sucks either way

[juicyjujubean14]

@makemeskinny3 i agree :/ ...do u have bulimia?

[makemeskinny3]

@juicyjujubean14 I have EDNOS (eating disorder not otherwise specified). Im recovering from episodes of binging and purging but restricting too. Im in between anorexia and bulimia... and it sucks too

[juicyjujubean14]

@makemeskinny3 ah i so feel your pain, i do the binge and purge cycle all the time! ive never told ANYONE before so i cant really recover :/ im 15, how old are you??

@makemeskinny3 aw im sorry :( dont give up! you can beat it!!

[makemeskinny3]

@juicyjujubean14 aww thank you hun :) It really means a lot

[DrinkFromMyThickDick]

Really, thin is the way to be. The media knows it. You know it (but try to deny it) and the enlightened ones know it.

While society will come to the aid of a nice, fit, thin girl...the same cannot be said for a healthy/chubby/chunky/heavy/tu­bby girl. Nobody likes a whale :p

[nachingonboy]

thank you now im goint to throw up

[09tranm]

Exercise Bulimia wtf. I don't get it. 3 hours a day isn't that much. If you join the marines you work out even more.

[iheartsjonas]

@09tranm you also don't binge when you're in the marines...

[adicts89]

@09tranm she obviously wasn't eating right

[09tranm]

@adicts89 Yeah I know that thank you.

[pianokitten04]

@09tranm I'm a recovered exercise & purging bulimic, ya know, it's an illness. 3 hours a day: normal for some? Yes. Absolutely. Normal when you're eating under 400 calories a day: NO absolutely not. This is why it's so dangerous. Too much exercise when you are not eating hardly at all causes electrolyte imbalances, protein, potassium and iron deficiencies, anemia and amenorrhea. It's dangerous. and that is why it's too much.

[09tranm]

@pianokitten04 Thank you. I know that now.

[chasitysalinas]

y is she so thin??

[zarate760]

lol y is it that its always Africa, who knows it might be umm well idk but y Africa :)

[tribunalfunk]

Hey, I am really not trying to sound racist or mean. I swear. I am married to a white man myself. But...is it only white women who go crazy with these eating disorders? We have all seen the skinny African kids in Ethiopia and Sudan, but they are actually STARVING people with no food to eat or not enough. You know these people featured here have the means to buy decent quality foods. Plus, I see in my neighborhood white women who are just skin and bones, exercising so hard. What is the issue?

[spershall]

@tribunalfunk The "but there are starving kids in Africa!" refrain is a familiar one to anyone who's had an eating disorder. No, EDs don't just affect white women. If you're really interested in learning more, I recommend Lauren Greenfield's film and book THIN. Joan Jacobs Brumberg has written some really insightful books about EDs as well.

[yocelineM27]

@tribunalfunk i agree

[emiilyfights]

ajandlady- I think compulsive exercise is just that but actual exercise bulimia is meant to be when someone is binging and the exercise is the purging

[ajandlady]

i've never heard it called "Exercise Bulimia" ..in rehab they called it compulsive exercise or exercise addiction

[heavynsad]

can someone please give me tips for quick weight loss.

[PanicGrl]

cut to healthy weight loss. it is a long process if you want to do it healthy way...you need to exercise and eat a normal amount of food

[ClearUncertainty]

if it was quick, it wouldnt be a permanent or lasting weight loss  =/

[bevon17]

@heavynsad

I'll be 100% honest with you.

I'm 5'2 and I weigh 125-129 pounds. (you can look at my page picture),

And you're in luck because there ARE tips to weight loss.

You may not like the tips, but honestly The absolute best way to lose weight is not fast, There are no fast ways, and if you try to do a fast way you will wreck yourself.

You need to get your mind strong and stop looking for an easy way out. If you want something in this world you have to sacrifice.

[bevon17]

@bheavynsad

you gotta push yourself beyond your limits and you gotta stop feeling pity for yourself. Only YOU can control what you eat, and only YOU can choose to work out.

If you want it you need to let your actions speak for themselves.

It all starts and ends in the mind. You need to become love mates with Pain and adore every last characteristic because what you think you hate is really what you need to make you who Y O U want to be.

Change your mindset and change your lifestyle.

[AllTimeLexi]

@heavynsad Switch to diet sodas. A little less junk food, & A LOT OF DDR.

[BinkieMcFartnuggets]

This used to be called "exercising too much", now everything has a disorder name.

[MegaCatthecat]

@BinkieMcFartnuggets I'm not arguing with you but exercise bulimia is not just about overexercising - the exercise is a way of purging calories that are eaten during binges.

Overexercising on its own is just compulsive exercise or exercise addiction.

[Sunny72Cide]

Wow!
