Won't leave house due to weight? (I'm not even overweight)?
I'm 17, I use to be bulimic and have had disordered eating/thinking habits since I was 11 or possibly even younger. The most I have ever weighed was 144 lbs when I was 13, the least I have weighed was 100 lbs a few months ago. Since then I have lost control and gained 15 lbs and my social life is suffering. What should I do to convince myself to socialize even though I am unconformable with my weight? I have home school so I don't have to leave the house unless I choose too. Also I recently quit my job due to anxiety over my weight. (I'm only 5' 3" and currently I am trying to lose 5-10 lbs to be able to leave without as much stress) I put this in the mental health section because this is effecting my mind. I am lonely. (but not depressed) *In the past I have abused drugs to keep a low(ish) weight*
Need Weight Loss Help...Complicated.?

I want/need to lose weight, but I can't stop eating?
I'm fat. I know I am because I'm about 40-50 pounds overweight. I want to lose weight so bad and I try to eat well and exercise, but it's so difficult. The exercising part isn't too hard since I've found things I really like to do. But it's the eating that makes me so frustrated with myself. For example, tonight at 10:30 I decided to eat a huge thing of nachos for no effing reason. I knew it wouldn't be a good idea, but the evil side of myself kept saying "don't worry, this will be the last time and you'll start eating good tomorrow". The moment I put the last chip in my mouth I absolutely regretted eating the nachos... What can I do to stop this reoccurring cycle of bad eating habits?? This has been happening for the past 5 years and summer is approaching and I'm tired of seeing my downright ugly cottage cheese legs. Please, do you have any tips and suggestions? I really appreciate anything! And please don't just say "uh, just stop eating fatty". Trust me, I say that to myself everyday but it's obviously and sadly not working... Thanks!
What kind of doctor do I consult to help me gain weight?
This was exactly me a few years ago so i know. I got a full body check up and realized a thing or two. So basically have a full body check up and get a feedback from any genral practice doctor, a nutritionist or dietician are also more preferred.I followed eat everything in sight and increased my appetite. I went to gym as well to help increase my appetite and well results not bad. From being stuck at 56 kgs ever since till 21 from 17, now I'm 72kgs at 23 and now making sure i don't go any further.Edit 1: a small little details i forgot, i did not have any supplements or anything special. Just increase your diet in first place and eat till you feel its full up to your throat. That was my mantra
Is it ever ok to tell someone they're fat?
Okay, no. Unless you are a licensed professional and you are telling someone that they are overweight or obese for health reasons and that’s your job— lay off.Do you honestly believe that fat people don't notice that they are fat? Most people that I know that are fat or obese are very insecure and have been bullied their entire lives for their weight. You reminding them how FAT they are is usually just kicking someone when they are already down.I think a better approach would be to inspire and try to include them with your own fitness regime. You could say “hey, want to come for a walk with me at 6 pm”, or “I'm starting a group with my friends and we are all going to kick a soccer ball around at the park.. wanna come?”One of my best friends is morbidly obese, and her father constantly reminds her how fat she is. She feels more and more like a failure, and his comments are very counterproductive.Okay last thought: I feel like a majority of people are sedentery. Some people just have faster metabolisms than others. So if you're trying to guilt someone for eating too many cheetos, but you eat the same amount and you just happen to not get fat from it—you aren't really concerned about their “health”, you just find them to be unaesthetic. So get out of here with that fake concern for their health.If it is a concern for their health, there are a lot more constructive approaches than simply saying “you are fat”. They are aware. Their doctor and probably everyone else has already mentioned it. It's not like they don't have mirrors. Have some sympathy.
