Best treatment for obese bulimic?
Question : Best treatment for obese bulimic?
I’m 21, struggled w/anorexia and bulimia in the past and am now considered obese…and stuck. If I try any diet, I end up restricting…or purging but my metabolism is at a standstill. Any advice? I want to exercise but it’s almost painful, as my huge boobs like bouncing around and I get tired so fast… Being obese is just as bad for my health as when I was almost underweight. Thanks ![]()

Start by walking and just eating healthy! I know it’s hard when you’ve had eating habits like you’ve had in the past.
But yeah, easing into is the best way to go. Start with walking and then you can start running as that gets easier. Also getting a supportive sports bra would be a good idea to make it more comfortable. They have a nice selection at Target!
I really empathise and feel for you hun.
I have been anorexic and bulimic for 7ish years. Not nice.
I too have struggled to eat like a ‘normal’ person and either fast or restrict or binge and purge.
But I have started cognitive behavioural therapy and therapy with my old eating disorder specialist.
Get those feelings out first, and when you feel healthier in your mind, you will start to feel ok in yourself.
Then the hard work can begin.
Dont set yourself a crazy goal (that you probably have done before with an ED!) just say lose 1lb in the first 2 weeks. if you get a better result- great!
Start by getting up when your not doing anything (watching tv for example) and just walk up the stairs and back down again. Then when your sat,tense and release your muscles – e.g tense your legs for 10secs then relax, do this 10 times. then move to another muscle.
Only buy healthy food if you can. Just have plenty of fruits and veg cut up in the fridge. When you want to binge eat only the healthy stuff first and your craving will soon slow.
I really hope i have helped you out a little.
Please PM me and let me know how you are doing and if you just need a rant!
Good luck
