I dont even understand why you bother with protein shakes if your not going to eat balanced and healthy the rest of the time.....

do you not understand the health risks associated w/ eating as you do long term? diabetes? clogged arteries? etc etc.

Atherjen - I eat the protein shakes after I workout in order to rebuild. I always have the shake and a simple carb of some sort. In regards to the long term effects, I asked a questions before, "But what I don't understand is that let's say that I stop eating this way the day I turn 18, and I start eating healthy. Normal person healthy...and one cheat meal a week. Will the shit I ate from age 15 - 18 affect the way I look? Or are you guys just making me aware of the future if the bad habits could continue? What I mean is, are you anticipating that if I don't stop, I could continue this way and get fat because I wold be so used to eating that way? Or right now, I am screwing up my body? "

Teesh - You would be surprised how much protein I get it. Oh...wait...is that what you were worried about? There's too much? I've already screwed up my liver when I trie d atuna, egg white, chicken breast diet and had to go on IV/ dialysis for 24 hours to flush myself out. My creatinine and urea were double that of a normal person.

i'm going to try one more time....

you were asking if your eating would affect the way you LOOK and asked about GETTING FAT if you continue eating this way....

what about getting SICK instead of getting FAT? what about your body's HEALTH instead of your body's APPEARENCE?

Why wait till you are 18? Your health is something that you should be concerned with at any age. Some people have heart attacks as young as 16 years old....
I'm actually sort of shocked that you aren't overly concerned about your health and the long terms effects of diet, currently. Considering the fact that you had an eating disorder, that should give you more reason and motivation to eat healthier.

All right personally I almost think that this diet is a joke and you're just trying to get a rise out of us.
Anyways that being said doesn't your diet leave you feeling like shit?
I know if I go on a binge whether it's once a week or for several days post-contest I feel like hell!
Going back to your question of 'what if' the day you turn 18... chances are you won't 'suddenly' snap into a clean way of eating, for those of us who do eat healthy, eating clean isn't always a breeze even when you've been disciplined at it for years.
I don't have the answers for you as to 'how' exactly you are screwing up your body right now and 'how' it will effect you in the long term... no one can predict that. Sure you may breeze through with no major side effects or you may develop some nasties along the way... why take the risk?!
You also mentioned having screwed up your liver already from diet in the past... do you want to risk screwing yourself up again with the diet you are consuming now?
You need the help of a nutritionist because you obviously just don't get it... everyone here is just trying to steer you in the right direction.
Good luck.

Maybe you can work backwards.. try 1 day of clean eating a week, then bump it to two, then 3 then 4 til eventually you get to only 1-2 cheat days a week. A lot of skinny people can eat tons of junk, but again, their health is not in good shape. Whilest I curse my slow metabo all the time, I am glad it helps me keep my eating in check because I cant eat what other people eat without getting fat, and I know that my healthier habits will lead me to a longer healthier life than my fast metabo counterparts



I can do it

I WILL be a size 5.

Greek - Good point...It's worth a shot. Except I'm going to have to try one clean MEAL before I go for a clean day.

Nikegurl - I am not concerned about getting fat...at all. I am sorry if I gave you that impression. I just wanted to know if it was the habits that would get to me in the long run, or the food I'm consuming now. That's all.

Britchick - lol. I don't post my diet for shits and giggles. That's actually what I ate on those days. It's a normal day for me.

sara - Why not change the habit now? Because I am a teenager and thus have the "I am invincible" mindset. So, while I have this metabolism, I chose to focus on the short term gain, long term pain method of eating (which I now realize has to change)

It is hard to stop eating junk food when that is what you're used to, but day by day it gets easier and easier. I was just reading in Jenny's new journal that she now hates chocolate So, you'd be surprised but the body does adapt and so does the mind and you will crave it less and less.

Are you saying eating healthy considered to be "pain method of eating"??

No...you didn't read the whole sentence. There's a phrase that goes "Short term pain, long term gain" and conversely "Short term gain, long terms pain". I was using the first one to state that right now, I feel I am doing something good, but I know it's not healthy in the long run. But sometime eating healthy is painful...or at least more painful emotionally and physically than eating junk all the time (for me)

I know what ya mean Jaim91, eating junkfood kind of gives you that feeling or that mind set of "yes! I'm finally normal" and it gives everyone around you, that cares for you that exact same sense of happiness, cause they can see how happy you are. When I first had a piece of junk food, a piece of cake on my mom's birthday, she was so happy I thought she was gonna cry. The thing is, is that you haven't been eating like this for all your life, you lost out on a big part of your childhood because of the eating disorder that your never gonna get back, I know how hard it is not being able to go out with your friends for some pizza, or not being able to renting tons of movies and staying up late eating chips with your friends, or going to partys but having to leave right away cause watching everybody eat all the food was enough to make you throw up. Theres so much that you missed out on, so why punish yourself anymore? The fact that you had an eating disorder in the past and are now able to eat all that junk shows how much of a strong willed person you are and I admire people like that. But if your worried about your overall sense of health then yes start eating healthy but don't limit yourself to one cheat meal a week, eat a cheat meal everyday, hell you could have 2 a day if you wanted. You know whats healthy and whats not, just make sure the majority of what you eat is healthy food and you'll be fine, like I said before you punished yourself enough in the past, why punish yourself even more?

"1 peanut butter and jelly sandwich on a bagel"

-High five for Pb&J on a bagel!

j/k

I'm an engineer, and at work you have to go out to eat. There are suppliers who take out the customer before a meeting. It's a common and expected practice. That's vrey difficult for me, because I have trouble watching people eat, let alone having to interact with them during a meal. It actually makes me feel "angry". I guess I kind've view people who eat "anything" as ignorant. That's probably just my jealous side though.

That' is one reason I could never live with my parents right now. Eating right just can't happen while you live at home. You have do your own shopping . That makes things difficult for us youngi'ns . It's amazing how somethings that seems so routine and normal to others, we manage to make so difficult.

We may be young, but why not start now. I used to NEED five cups of coffee a day. I'm at the point where I dont need any extraordinary stimulants to keep me going throughout the day. (except sometimes, the day after I burn too much energy in the gym )

I know what ya mean I always have to go shopping for my own set of groceries, my little brother and sisters eat ANYTHING they want, and to make thing worse we own our own Chinese/Canadian food/Pizza restaurant, and every night they want some sorta deep fried fat, god there still eating french fries and pizza at 12:00am it's disgusting. It kinda makes me mad that my parents would even allow it cause in the long run there gonna pay for it, they'll be like the typical overweight, health problemed person. My brother's already paying he's the size of a mini balloon

Tom, while I do appreciate what you're saying...you just told me not to punish myself anyone for what I did in the past, but you're the one saying you get angry at your own siblings because you're jealous that they eat what they want. YOU CAN TOO!

Luke - I heart you! When you go out to your meetings, instead of getting angry, get even. Order a huge salad with lots of chicken. At most restaurants, salads come in huge portions (at least here in Canada), and maybe order low fat dressing on the side. Food shouldn't make you angry.

As they say in the hospital, "Live to eat, don't eat to live".

I live with my parents that eat the opposite as I eat.. It is hard, but you gotta make some sacrafices if you call it a sacrafice.. I actually enjoy what I'm eating now more than what I see my parents eating.. The only thing I don't like is measuring what I eat and I need to loosen up a little

MUCH agreed, it is difficult. But it is especially difficult on a bulking diet , especially on a students budget.

I never meant it like that, I meant I gte angry at my parents for buying all that crap for my siblings, they eat NO healthy food whatsoever, which I guess it's fine if the can handle the disadvantaghes of that when they get older. My parents should have taught me and my sibilngs healthy eating habits instead of "mmm this looks good *chomp*"

Yes, and nutrition should be taught in school! From day one you hear "three meals a day". It's amazing how important meal placement is!

The Whole Concept

Last time I checked overall health included dentistry and I can't imagine all the sugar content is doing your teeth any good. Even if I wasn't going to watch my food intake for weight related reasons I would still have to say the sugar does awful wonders on your teeth.
