How do I tell my parents I'm bulimic?

I'm very bulimic. I used to have it under control, but it has gotten significantly worse and I don't feel like I'm controlling it anymore. I want to tell my parents but they actually are proud of me for my weight loss. My parents are so proud of me in general right now and everything is finally coming together and I'm afraid to ruin it. Idk who to tell. I haven't told anyone even friends yet. I feel like I should def tell my mom first but idk how.im 17 btw

How to Eat Chocolate to Lose Weight

Recommended Answer:

Leave the door to the bathroom open when you stick your finger down your throat. They probably already know anyway, if not this will help them figure it out.

Other Answers:

• you really do have it , it's not something in your hand just tell them
• Clearly this is going to be an emotional subject. And you're not stupid, you know what there response is going to be, the same as any other sane person's response. They'll get you to start eating because you're literally killing yourself and punishing your body for your own selfish gluttony.Since you're clearly not able to help yourself, you need your parents help. If it's so difficult and your relationship with your parents doesn't seem to be very open, since you're hiding it form them. Maybe the best way to go about this is writing a letter.Do it when you're alone and you can really let out your feelings as to how this started, why you're doing it, why you continue to do it. Be genuine and don't point the blame to anybody else because you are the only person who says what goes in and out of your mouth. There is nobody else.
• just tell.

How to Set Weight Loss Goals

Recommended Answer:

You're doing good so far. It's safe to lose a pound or two a week. Unless you're doing extraordinarily vigorous activities, then you might lose up to 5 lbs. At a normal rate, It could take you 10 weeks, or 2 1/2 months to lose 20 pounds, if you're going to lose 2 pounds a week. Or 20 weeks, roughly, 5 months at a rate of losing one pound per week. I find that sometimes, in a week my body may not lose any pounds. And in another week, I've lost up to 4 pounds. The fluctuation of the body is amazing. Just got to keep the fuel, (food and water), coming. Your metabolism is also one huge factor in losing lbs. I have a slow metabolism, so for me to lose a couple of pounds in a week would be a miracle. Where as for someone with a high metabolism could easily lose over 2 pounds a week. It really depends. But either way, at your rate, you'll lose 20 pounds in no time =) It took me 5 months to work off 31 pounds. And that was with major cheat days, portion control and regular exercise~

Other Answers:

• Depends which work outs you're doing and what you're working on.
• Don't worry! 1357 is still technically not enough. I'm the same height as you and my body needs 1200 cals just to tick over, That's like if you lie down all day, and eat 1357 calories you wouldnt put any weight on. So since you've (i assume) been doing your usualy daily things then you should lose weight esp since you worked out. Even if you eat 1500 cals a day, you would still be losing weight. The easiet way I find to lose weight in a short time like a week is cutting out carbsonly eat cheese, meat, veg etc. No fruit, bread, rice, sugar anything thats a carb. thats not healthy forever, but works for losing weight fast!

Do you have any tips on becoming a morning person?

I've searched for some of these things, and I haven't found very clear tips. Alright, so i'm still a teenager, so I probably can't go out there and supply my own diets, or go out and purchase synthetic chemicals meant to ease the process. I'm not sure if I'm a deep sleeper, but sometimes, i'll wake up late and not even realize that my alarm went off. Perhaps that's because of the fan that's in my room. My room is REALLY HOT. The air conditioner vent doesn't work in my room, leaving it very stuffy all day long. My brother is leaving for college in about two weeks, and i'll be able to take over his room. Thankfully, the air conditioner in there works. Perhaps, without the use of a fan, an alarm will be more effective at actually waking me up in the first place. Do you have any good alarm tones? Also, for my alarm tone, should I use a unpleasant tone or a nicer one? I don't really know what is best. I know how to use A/V receivers, so I could probably plug my phone in when I go to sleep and have it play over speakers around my room, so I don't think the volume thing is a problem. Also, when I do get woken up, I feel very tired, and If I can, I often go back to bed. When I have an external deadline, i'll get up, but when I want to get up early to have some personal time, I wake up, and ditch the idea all together for those last 2 hours of sleep. I know the basics, like keeping a consistent schedule, but do you know how I could impose something like that? I have High School football to worry about along with online geometry over the summer. I'm going to HAVE to stay up late some nights just so I can finish on time. Are there any other things you could tell me, perhaps a wake up regiment, or some tips on becoming alert fast when you first wake up, leaving a smaller possibility of you just going back to bed?I'm not sure if this would be helpful information, but i'm 14, my diet is not the best. I get home from football and i'll either go out and eat with my mom(probably fast food), and if not, I just eat whatever we have lying around(most likely microwavable things). This may sound like the typical obesity story, but you can judge for yourself. I'm 6'3'' and 230 pounds. Perhaps that's bad, but i'm no one to judge. Also, my current sleep regiment is going to sleep whenever I stop watching educational videos on YouTube. I often find myself urging on and just continuing to watch these things. I usually get to bed around 2:00 A.M. Also, when I don't have to wake up early, I usually get up around 12:30 P.M. or so. If I had no restrictions at all, I would probably go to bed around 4:00 A.M. and wake up around 3:00 P.M.

How to Diet with Brown Rice to Lose Weight

Recommended Answer:

To start off, I would be going to bed earlier. Celery naturally makes you feel sleepy so if you eat a simple amount before you go to bed, you'll find it easier to sleep. With your alarm clock, use something that your not used to hearing or something annoying so your brain realizes its actually hearing something. Also, I do not know what your diet is, but you should maybe go for a long walk or jog or even ride a bike a couple of K's a day. All these things should help. And you'll want o stay around the 9 hours of sleep mark.I hope this helped, Leeroy.
