I’m 17F, 5’5, 116-117 lbs

I have calorie counted for a while. I do not under eat as I love food but I will not eat something if I can’t work out the exact calories. I weigh all my food & avoid restaurants even on my birthday. All I think about is food
I watch videos of WIEIADs, lunchboxes on Pinterest etc.. it’s not new. Been obsessed for a while.
I go to LA for a vacation in 2 weeks and I’ve written in my notes app a list of the food places with the lowest calorie ‘meals’ & often it’s the kids meals because restaurants make their foods highly calorific. Do not get me wrong, I eat large portions at home but I know the exact calories count and I volume eat.
I am 30lbs lighter than I was 12 months ago. I am by no means underweight but I haven’t had a period in 5 months & I think this happened when I began to exercise.
I just think I’m too obsessed & I’ve tried to stop but I have the calories memorised & I can’t stop. It’s like my hyperfixation!!!
Honestly I only want to get to 110lbs & then have a normal relationship with food. I also dealt with extreme binge eating on many days.
I want to enjoy my vacation, I was going to try erewhon (was excited for smoothies) but no calorie info online & people said they’re around 800. So I won’t be getting that even though I so badly want to!!!

Any advice would be MUCH appreciated. Thanks 🤗

I am 118lbs. 5’5 female.

I was previously around 140-145lbs but went on a calorie deficit and added exercise.
A little over a month ago I cut out my cardio and ate around 3000-4000 calories a day in a binge cycle, (yes, every day). I also haven’t had a period in around 5 months since I started exercising.
I am still 118lbs. Still no period.
Welp I am going to go back on my calorie deficit (1200-1300 calories a day) with my cardio added back in as it makes me feel great.
I am only posting this as I’m wondering - how was that even possible? I understand one or two days overeating won’t cause fat gain. But this was daily and it was exhausting- thought I lost all my progress.
I am out of the binge cycle 🥳 now.

What are your weekly average calories with fasting? (For those who do to aid with weight loss). I can see some people here fast for days!! Is this not undereating if the weekly average calories are low? Just a question 😀
I am new to long fasting - just joined this sub & I am starting my first ever 72 hr fast! But I calorie track & this means my weekly average calories will be 977 per day for this week.
I do want to lose weight though. I calorie cycle & aim for 1200 average per day.
I ate 2274 today as I knew I wouldn’t be eating for 72 hrs (well, if I succeed!).
Just curious, any info helps me. I want to get into fasting as I have done 20 hr fasts previously and loved it - and haven’t done any for a while

For reference im 120lb F 5’5 only looking to lose around 5-10lbs but I want to do it quick 🥰
I dropped 20lb on 1200 over a period of months when I was sedentary. Now I fell off over Easter , looking to get back on track for summer!

I feel sedentary but I am going to start to do 1 hr stair master (burns around 400 cal 6x a week) and a 75 min walk (burns 250 cal 7x a week)
Outside of this I am sat down all day so i don’t feel active.

Is this OK for 1200? Or no? Tia x

I am young. I keep binge eating even though I really don’t want to (I don’t even enjoy it). Then I throw up (only about 1/4 of what I binged). And my recently I have thrown up blood (pretty sure it’s just the fact my nails scratch the back of my throat).

I keep crying and promising never to do it again, I don’t restrict the next day, it just happens. I am healthy weight but I am terrified of gaining weight from it, no one knows and I just want to cry in my mums arms and for her to tell me it will be alright but I’m too embarrassed to ask for help I think she’d disregard me.

I’ve tried a million times over positive mindsets, everything to recover, I feel so defeated, can anyone offer any form of help? I want to get better and be normal. I don’t know why I binge as I allow myself all foods.

It’s going to kill me one day

I just want help.
