I'm not sure where to post this, as it's not exactly bitchy so it doesn't go in that thread, and it isn't exactly emotional support so it doesn't go in that thread, and it doesn't warrant it's own topic, so I guess this thread's the winner.
So I've been trying to lose a bit of weight lately. Just a little, I'm still considered a healthy weight and you wouldn't think of me as overweight by seeing me, I guess just call it nostalgia and wanting to look like I did in high school even though the way I look now is still fine.
(off-story that's kind of important to this. My 3rd and 4th years of high school I developed a little anorexia problem. I'm over 6 feet tall and I ended up weighing 125 lbs, and I'm built kinda stocky with broad shoulders so it was very visually too skinny and I looked like a ghost with no skin color whatsoever. Anyway, when I finally got over that I bulked up to about 220 pounds, which is kindof alot but I'm quite tall and largely built so it still wasn't really that bad, then for a while I'm down to around 200 and that was okay. I'd like to get to 170, that seems like a good middle ground for me. For the way I'm built 200 is honestly probably good, and it may be my anorexic tendencies insisting I need to lose 30 more. Maybe not though. My most healthy weight in high school was 160, so 10 pounds over that seems good enough. Anyway I thought that might factor into the story a bit.)
Anyway, like I said I'm trying to lose just a bit of weight. I'm succeeding. I mean I'm really succeeding. At first it started healthy. I'd lose a couple pounds a week and I felt great and it was good. I still feel pretty good actually, but now the weight feels like it's coming off too fast. I've been literally losing 1 to 2 pounds a DAY. Every day I weigh myself and I weigh a pound or 2 less than the day before. I weight 8 pounds less than I did just a week ago. Don't get me wrong, I'm thrilled to be approaching my goal so fast, but I'm nervous because this just seems to be too fast. I mean I live an active life and I push myself, but I'm worried that something might be wrong to be causing me to lose pounds every day. But maybe I'm just being paranoid. Anyone have any experience with this and would like to chime in? Ender perhaps? (due to medical training not because I think you're fat :P)
