Hi,
I'm still new here and I like the idea of an online diary, so here we go!
I'm 17 years old and my goal is to lose 10-15 pounds in a healthy way. Here are my stats:
Height: 5'3
CW: 114 Ibs
HW: 128 Ibs
LW: 93 Ibs
I'd like to lose 5 Ibs until the end of June because of a major dance competition and I think this should be possible. I'm usually eating quite healthy but today was awful! I had weetabix with milk for breakfast and an apple for school. At home I had half a cup of rice but then later the day I met my friends and we had a picnic and I had sooo many calories, I don't even want to think about it. Well, tomorrow will be better...

Welcome
You are so sweet. Really I think your weight is about perfect, and perhaps eating healthy and keeping up your dancing (you do dance?) is the best way to go.
You don't want to set yourself up for years of yo yo dieting.
Enjoying a picnic with friends sounds like a lot of fun. Dont' worry about it just do better at your next meal.
Wishing you the very best.
Cheerio
Maggie

Thank you. Yes, I dance. =)
I calculated the calories I had yesterday and it was about 1500. I really thought it was more...hehe So today I weighed myself and I dropped 1 pound! lol That made me want to try the calorie cycling method. Fot the last 2 days I had 1400-1500 cals, today I had no more than 900 cals and tomorrow will be the same. Hopefully.
I went shopping today with friends of mine and I bought two pairs of trousers and a skirt and I can't believe that I dropped 2 sizes since January! That motivates me so much to keep going!

I'm confused. My sense of time is just soo bad I couldn't even remember what day it was and when I ate what. So, today I had 920 cals and I ate really healthy. YAY! I danced for 1.5 hours and here's my plan for the week:
Monday: 900-1000 cals 2h gym
Tuesday: 1400-1500 cals 1-2h dance
Wednesday: 1400-1500 cals 2h gym
Thursday: 900-1000cals 1h dance
Friday: 900-1000cals 2h gym
Saturday: 900-1000cals uhmm...nothing?! lol
Sunday: 1400-1500cals 2 h dance
I hope that I won't mess up and that it's going to work. I'm curious about it, because I've only tried 2468, where you eat 200cals on the first, 400cals on the second day and so on and of course, I would not recommend this to anyone! I'll try to make sure that I eat enough because I'm likely to starve myself from time to time but I'm trying to stop that and boost my metabolism. I pray to God that this is not going to make me GAIN weight! I really want to be thin. But more than that, I want to be healthy and not do damage to my body and waste time.

I've lost another pound! Don't we love water weight?! I wish my fat would melt a little faster/easier!
Today I wanted to calculate my body fat percentage, so I needed my waist measurement and yesterday it was 26.3. Well, that's what I thought! I should have used a mirror to find my waist. In fact, it's 25.5 inches. BUT my fat percentage is 18%!! Now that's embarrassing. I mean, I'm a dancer and I usually work out every day, so it should be much lower than 18% I think! That really made me feel rather FAT than fit.
I danced for about an hour and I'll go to the gym tonight. I've already had 1000 cals today and I'm so afraid to lose control and eat again when I come home from gym.

Tuesday and Wednesday were awful. I didn't count calories but I'm sure I had even more than 1500 calories.  I'm back to 114Ibs. But I will stop eating after dinner. It's just a habit, so I should be able to stop.
I've already had about 750cals today and I'm planning to eat a salad with low-fat dressing for dinner. Maybe maybe I'll add a slice of bread. We'll see.
I can't go to gym tonight because I have physio therapy and I'm loaded with school work. So annoying!!

I've tried calorie cycling for a week now and I'm giving up! I already thought it would end like this and yeah, I was right. This just isn't for me. In the future I'm going to try not to eat the same amount of calories every day but all without a plan.
I haven't weighed myself for a while and I'm too afraid to do so because I can see that I gained weight. I feel it! And I wasn't really overeating. OH my, I'm just trying to eat normally.
Today's my dad's birthday and I had a big piece of cake which doesn't make me feel any better. From tomorrow on I'll eat less. I want to fast, just to get rid of all the food inside of me! But I'd gain everything back, anyway.
Although I have a cold, I'll go to dance class tonight. Actually I don't want to because I think that everyone would notice I've gained weight but to be honest I believe that's idiotic. But I'm still having these thoughts!
I'll write down what I eat from tomorrow on, today would be too embarressing.

I haven't posted here for a while and it's time to change that! I found two lovely weight loss buddies and I'm down to 112.5 after being stuck at 114 for some time.
But I feel so bad right now, I'm disapoointed in myself because I just purged. I didn't even binge, I was trying to eat 1200 cals because I've been eating too little this week and then I felt so full and I couldn't stand it. I didn't really think about it, I just ate, ate more, stood up and went straight to the toilet. I'm so disgusting, I didn't purge for a long time and I wasn't thinking about calories so much for the past weeks and I don't know what's wrong with me. I'm alone at home for over a week and I find it so hard to eat something but I don't want my body to go into starvation mood so that I get even fatter in the end. Gosh, I'm such a  !! And I just want to be thin and normal!! But honestly I don't think I will EVER not be eating disordered, I'm so sick of it!!
Sorry for the vent but it's my diary and you don't have to read it!

Hey!
I know you said this was your blog and we didn't have to read it, which is totally true. But I did read it and figured I would give my two cents.
You sound like you are at a very healthy weight for your size, but being a dancer, I can see why you are very concerned about your weight. That being said, just make sure you are doing it the right way - eating healthy and working out. Your body is already tiny and you aren't going to see instant results. Throwing up is just NEVER the answer.
Also, there is an eating disorder forum on here too, maybe that would be helpful for you to check out.
Just trying to help!!

Thanks for trying to help. 
I do know that purging is bad and I promised myself I'd never do it again but sometimes I still make myself sick and I'm ashamed of it. I'm trying to give it up competely.
Oh, I pray I didn't gain any weight...we'll see tomorrow!

Today I was eating waaay too much unhealthy food, I'm not going to calculate how many calories I had because I know it was too much and I just want to forget it and tomorrow will be better.
For the next days I want to try eating 5 meals a day and have a total of 1000cals.
Breakfast: 200 (2 weetabix or Special K or bread with peanut butter
Snack: 100
Lunch: 300
Snack: 100
Dinner: 200
Snack: 100
Possible foods for....
....breakfast: 2 weetabix, Special K, 1 slice of bread with peanut butter or gouda, 2 slices with chicken breast or cottage cheese
...snack: fruits or vegetables, 1/2 cup of oatmeal
...lunch: (I'll think of something tomorrow!)
...dinner: 1 cup of oatmeal, salad sandwich....
I'll add more tomorrow because I'm tired now.

Oopsi, it's been a while since I last posted. I'm trying to stick to my plan and I was doing okay. But the last 2 days were awful. Yesterday I had way to many calories (maybe like 3000, I didn't count), so I only had breakfast today, which means a total of 200cals. I didn't feel like eating although I danced for 3 hours and I was at the gym for over an hour. I didn't weigh myself for 3-4 days but I'll check my weight tomorrow.
But I really need some sleep, now.

I weighed myself yesterday and I think it was 113Ibs. We had some unhealthy fatty foods and I was about to binge, so I threw it away! hehe I went to the grocery store but then I came home with oatmeal instead of chocolate but I still had too much of it and eww I purged. Again. And it didn't make me feel bad at all. I actually felt really good afterwards and I hate that it makes me feel good!! ARGH!! I wish I just found it harder to throw up, I don't want to get used to that but I'm not motivated enough to stop either. I can't think of anything else to write, right now. I'm so tired.
