I have been battling anorexia for 2 plus years now. I used to swim 4 hours a day, 7 days a weeks and now I've stopped doing that. During that time I was swimming, i was eating about 800 or 900 calories a day. After I stopped swimming, my parents thought I was getting better. I would say I was eating more but I really wasn't, despite the fact that I was seeing my primary care physician, a nutritionist, and a psychologist. Now it's serious. I either gain some weight this week or they're sending me to residential treatment.
This is my new diet plan that the nutrition gave me yesterday:
Breakfast:
1 protein bar
1 bag of lowfat popcorn
100 calories worth of lean turkey breast
Snack:
2 graham crackers and a tablespoon of lowfat peanut butter
Lunch:
2 slices whole wheat bread
lean turkey or chicken
lettuce
tomato
honey mustard
Snack:
1 granola bar, 1 piece of fruit
Dinner:
1 cup pasta
4 oz. grilled chicken
1/2 cup marinara sauce
1 cup cooked vegetables
I'm absolutely terrified to do it. Terrified. I mean, yes, I'm still allowed to exercise but today I'm feeling like maybe I don't want to and I never allow myself to skip a day of exercise. I either run 45 minutes, or do a 60 minute treadmill workout. What's going to happen to me when I start eating the things she's given me. I am terrified to get fat and gain a ton of weight. I don't exactly know what I weigh because the specialists are handling that for me, but I'm 5'6" and I know I'm nearing 100 pounds (just slightly over).
HELP PLEASE.
