How to get anorexia and what it threatens in the future. I want to be thin - what should I do? Anorexic for a month

Anorexia is a disease that takes the lives of young girls. In pursuit of glossy “beauty standards”, they exhaust themselves with diets and become anorexic. How to recognize the disease in time, how dangerous it is and what happened to those who faced the problem face to face.

Anorexia is a condition that results from a neuropsychiatric disorder. It manifests itself as a phobia, the fear of gaining extra pounds. The presence of this disease is characterized by a critically low weight mark, in relation to the height of a person.

To determine normal weight, there is a special formula. The result of the calculation is called the body mass index. In patients with anorexia, it does not exceed 17 units. The formula for calculating BMI: I = m / h * 2, where m is the weight of a person, h is height.

Result	Grade
Under 18	Mass deficiency
18.5 to 25	normal weight
25.5 to 29.9	Has excess weight
30 to 34	Obesity 1 degree
34.5 to 39.9	Obesity 2 degrees
From 40 and more	Obesity 3 degrees

In addition to underweight, patients have no appetite, they refuse to eat. This occurs as a result of long-term use of drugs for weight loss, fasting, artificially induced vomiting after eating. Patients suffer from depression, and also lose the ability to objectively assess their condition. They constantly feel like they haven't lost enough weight yet.

Mostly young girls become anorexic, this fact is confirmed Scientific research. Teenage girls strive to become like the ladies on the covers of glossy magazines. Young people want to achieve quick results and use the most radical methods in the fight against overweight. Improper nutrition or starvation causes serious damage to health.

If the process of losing weight is delayed, then irreversible processes begin in the body. Psychotherapists who treat this disease have provided statistics showing that anorexia kills about 18,000 people a year around the world. 97% are women. Male anorexia is quite rare.

Stages and degrees of anorexia

The disease proceeds in 4 stages:

dysmorphomaniac. At this stage, the disease is difficult to identify. The dysmorphomanic stage often develops in adolescents. Girls want to lose weight quickly and lose several kilograms at once. They are unhappy with the reflection in the mirror, and go on diets with severe restrictions. Their goal is to lose enough weight so that the collarbones, spine and pelvic bones become visible. Any remark about the appearance is perceived as an insult, there is a desire to lose weight more.
Anorexic. At this stage, the pain develops a rapid desire to change the appearance. Body weight is reduced by half, the desire to stop and stop losing weight is not observed. Girls who are in this degree of anorexia are sure that their weight is within the norm, despite the protruding bones. They continue to exhaust themselves with hunger strikes, severe food restrictions and overly active training.
cachectic. The patient has a decrease physical activity. The girl becomes weak and sleepy. She can no longer continue playing sports, because the muscles at this stage begin to atrophy. The sick cannot warm up, they are constantly cold. The skin becomes dry and pale, the blood does not circulate as it should. Patients are not satisfied with their appearance, they still think that they are overweight. This degree of anorexia is fatal. Hospitalization and compulsory treatment are necessary, since the patient does not seek help. He thinks that everything is fine with him and continues to refuse food.
Reduction. The last stage, which occurs after treatment. When the patient gains weight in the clinic, his vital organs begin to function correctly, the person is discharged. According to the observations of doctors, in 90% of cases, anorexics try to lose weight again. It seems to them that they have been fattened to an incredible size, made them fat, and they urgently need to get rid of fat. They again resort to radical methods of dealing with extra pounds. They give enemas, induce vomiting, drink pills and starve. To prevent reduction from occurring, psychotherapists strongly advise the patient's relatives to monitor his behavior, meals, and also appoint weekly meetings with the patient for conversations and correcting his behavior.

Mostly teenage girls become anorexic. In 40% of cases, parents do not notice the strange behavior of their daughters immediately. Often they attribute everything to the peculiarities of adolescence. Thus, the first 2 stages of the disease can be skipped. After the onset of stage 3, treatment is much more difficult, so it is important to pay attention to any oddities in the child's behavior.

Psychological causes of anorexia

Types of psychological causes that contribute to the development of the disease:

constant stress;
low self-esteem;
feeling of loneliness;
desire lose weight
depression;
schizophrenia;
phobias.

This type of anorexia is called neuropsychiatric. In addition to the reasons listed above, a person can get sick if he grew up in a dysfunctional family, where he was constantly pointed out to flaws in appearance. The disease affects children aged 12 to 17 years, due to the desire to imitate models, movie characters or "beauty standards" from the Internet.

Physiological causes of anorexia

Become anorexic not only those girls who have mental disorders.

There are a number of physiological reasons for the development of this disease:

Psychotherapists noted that in 50% of cases, the professional activity of patients requires maintaining a constant body weight or sudden changes. For example, actresses, models, ballerinas.

When to see a doctor

The sooner the first symptoms are detected, the easier and faster the treatment will be. Patients who begin treatment in the first or second stage of anorexia have the most optimistic prognosis. After stage 3 of the disease, the probability of recurrence is 80%.

If these symptoms are observed, then you should contact the following specialists:

psychotherapist;
neurologist;
oncologist;
endocrinologist;
gastroenterologist.

Seriously ill patients are forcibly sent for treatment to a hospital, where they prescribe medications and psychiatric treatment. Doctors monitor the nutrition of the patient, gradually increasing the calorie content and portion size.

The threat to life recedes when weight loss stops, and general state is improving. Next, a series of sessions are held with a psychologist, whose work is aimed at raising the patient's self-esteem and distracting him from his own appearance.

Stories of girls who became anorexic

Become anorexic about 20% of women and young girls who have set a goal: to reduce weight to "ideal parameters". Many of them simply cannot stop the process of losing weight. Due to the fact that they ignore hunger, in the future this feeling ceases to arise at all.

They feel discomfort even during meager meals. Below is a couple detailed stories women who were able to overcome this disease.

Anastasia Filatova, 24 years old.

Nastya has always been small, at the age of 15 she grew to 158 cm, and her growth stopped. She weighed 48 kg, ate everything she wanted and did not consider herself complete.

Anastasia became interested in Japanese anime cartoons. She liked the image of the cartoon girls so much that she decided to adopt their style of clothing, hair and makeup.

Nastya began to choose non-standard images for herself, to which her classmates and acquaintances reacted negatively.

They started making fun of her. appearance, because of this, the girl did not have any friends. From the support of Nastya, only her mother remained, who raised her alone.

She believed that this was a common teenage behavior, everyone at this age wants to be different from others.

Once, during a joint walk in the park, my mother photographed Nastya in her unusual outfit.

When the girl looked at the photo, it seemed to her that she had recovered. Somehow the skirt did not sit right, the hips seemed too wide, and the white stockings slightly cut into the leg with an elastic band. Then Nastya made a decision - she urgently needs to lose weight! She refused to eat meat, sweets, starchy foods.

Portions reduced to the size of the palm and ate only 2 times a day. A week later, the weight decreased by 2.5 kg, which made the girl very happy. She tried on that costume again and took a picture. In the photo, she again saw the protruding “thighs”, which were “transferred” by the rubber band of the knee-highs. The girl was upset and decided to reduce the amount of food again.

In addition, she completely gave up cooked food and allowed herself to eat only 1 apple, carrot, and raw tomato in one day.

The feeling of hunger made it difficult to fall asleep at night. Her stomach hurt a lot, but Anastasia reassured herself that very soon she would become like the cute heroines of her favorite cartoons. After all, they are so refined, pale, feminine. Nastya's mother began to worry about the girl's nutrition, which is why they often began to quarrel. Soon the weight of the girl reached 38 kg. However, she did not look like a skeleton.

Nastya considered her weight ideal, it seemed to her that she had achieved the result. Then the girl decided to take a picture in a suit with golfs again. She didn't like what she saw. The waist seems to have become thinner, and the skirt is too puffy, the thighs are still thick. Nastya thought that she needed to lose a couple more kilograms. She decided to go on a three-day hunger strike.

The girl read on the Internet about the benefits of hunger, that in 3 days toxins will come out of the body and weight will decrease from 2 to 3 kg. On the first day, the girl felt a little worse than usual. In the evening she could not fall asleep for a long time, she was cold even under two blankets. I did not want to sleep, but I was very thirsty. Nastya decided that if she did not drink water, the process of fat breakdown would go faster.

After 4 hours of torment, the girl fell asleep. The next day she felt a little better, even wanted to do household chores. There was a lot of energy, there was no hunger at all. By evening, Nastya still felt tired and went to bed early. This time she managed to fall asleep quickly. At 3 am, the girl woke up with severe pain in her stomach.

The pain was so unbearable that Anastasia decided to end the hunger strike. She went to the kitchen to eat one apple, but didn't make it. She fainted. Fortunately, the fainting lasted only a few seconds, Nastya woke up very frightened and ran into the bedroom to her mother. She told her about everything that had been troubling her for so long and about what happened a few minutes ago.

She promised her mother that she would definitely go to a psychologist, as she had advised her before. That he will start eating right and will no longer exhaust himself with diets.

The psychologist carried out corrective work aimed at increasing Anastasia's self-esteem and the girl learned to accept herself for who she is. Gradually, she returned to her former way of life, but did not leave her passion for reincarnating as her favorite cartoon characters. Today she is 24 years old and she has found friends of her interests.

She became an animator and works at children's parties, and also conducts unusual photo shoots in bright outfits. Now, the girl knows that trying to lose weight to the state of a drawn character is an extremely stupid idea. After Nastya regained the necessary weight, she looks with horror at the photos taken at a weight of 38 kg. Now she sees that she was on the verge of death.

The bones stuck out so much that it was scary to look at. Nastya asks only one question, why did she not notice this then. Opinion of a psychotherapist: In this case, Anastasia was lucky that she herself saw the problem. In 80% of cases, patients cannot recognize the presence of anorexia, refuse treatment and continue to lose weight. Nastya had anorexia nervosa due to personal experiences.

She really wanted to be different from other teenagers, but when she chose a non-standard style of appearance, she faced misunderstandings from others. Probably, this was one of the causes of the disease. Perhaps Nastya was able to realize the problem only thanks to the words of her mother, when she told the girl about proper nutrition.

In addition, the mother supported the interest of her child when close friends turned away from him. By this, the woman strengthened the girl's confidence in herself, and she was able to recognize the danger in time and seek help.

Milana Zagorodneva, 19 years old.

Milana always wanted to be slim, but she didn't like playing sports. She liked different diets, which the girl began to get involved with at the age of 14. At the age of 18, all her acquaintances admired the figure of Milana, talked about her femininity and sophistication, she herself was never satisfied with the reflection in the mirror.

The girl felt that she did not have enough thin waist and too broad shoulders. The height of the girl was 168 cm, and the weight was 52 kg. She was embarrassed to wear tight clothes because she thought her stomach was sticking out. As in the first case, the girl decided to lose a lot of weight when she took a photo with her friends. It seemed to her that all the girls are slimmer than her.

Milana wanted to achieve a quick result, and went on a drinking diet. She decided not to eat solid food for 30 days. Eat exclusively broths, milk and juices. Every day, the girl began with weighing, and did not go to bed without this procedure.

Within 4 days, Milana felt well. She went for a walk with her friends, bought herself fresh juices and drank them. The weight went away, and by the evening of that day the girl weighed 49 kg. It seemed to Milan that this was too slow a result. She decided to cut her fluid intake down to three glasses a day. The only thing she drank without restriction was water.

Every time the girl felt hungry, she drank a glass of water. A week later, Milana felt weak and stopped going out for walks with friends. The feeling of hunger arose less and less, but Milan noted severe hair loss. She decided to drink vitamins. After the girl washed down one capsule with water, she felt severe nausea, as a result she vomited bile.

Milana did not connect this with the hunger strike, she decided that vitamins simply did not fit. At that time, the weight of the girl reached 46 kg. Looking in the mirror, her stomach was still embarrassing, it still bulged out, and when tilted, it was going into folds. Milana kept the diet for 30 days. She lost weight to 42 kg. She became very visible bones of the clavicles, ribs, pelvis. She liked it. Milana felt feminine and sophisticated.

The stomach finally disappeared, and she decided that it was time to stop the diet, and gradually return to the usual rhythm of life. In addition, surprisingly, the girl returned to her former strength, and she could again walk with friends. On the day when it was decided to end the diet, Milana cooked herself very thin oatmeal.

She ate only a couple of spoons, as she immediately felt severe nausea and pain in her stomach. To stop this torment, she cleared her stomach by inducing vomiting. The condition has improved. The girl went to meet friends in a cafe. The diet was over, which means you can again visit establishments that smell like food and not envy slender friends chewing delicious salads.

Milana ordered a fruit cut for herself, she really wanted to eat something sweet. When beautifully cut apples were served to her, she knitted one piece and chewed it for a long time. I swallowed, waited 2 minutes, the stomach did not react. Milana ate a few more pieces, after which she again felt severe nausea.

Gradually, the pain in the stomach intensified so much that her friends called the ambulance to the girl. Milan was taken to the hospital. There it turned out that the girl had a severe deficiency of body weight. In addition, Milana previously suffered from gastritis due to dieting and constant malnutrition. The hunger strike aggravated the disease, and now the girl has a high risk of developing a stomach ulcer.

Fortunately, Milana successfully passed the treatment. A year later, she again reached a normal weight of 58 kg. She revised her methods of dealing with excess weight and made the right decision: to play sports and stick to proper nutrition.

The opinion of the psychotherapist: Milana was chasing "ideal forms". Her idea of a healthy female body was greatly distorted. The girl's weight initially (52 kg) was the lowest mark of the norm, with her growth. The folds that she saw on her stomach are natural for each of us. When the body is tilted forward, even anorexics have these folds of skin.

Unfortunately, sick people see them differently, they believe that only overweight people have folds. In addition, the girl chose one of the critically wrong ways to deal with weight. Such a diet in the presence of gastritis is a direct path to an ulcer. For people with problems in the gastrointestinal tract, only a specialist should prescribe diets.

Milan was lucky that help was provided on time, most likely this case would have ended in death. Becomes anorexic not only simple girls who want to become like models, but also the models themselves.

There are several cases when celebrities lost control of their weight and died due to exhaustion:

Anna Carolina Reston. She died at the age of 22 from liver failure. With a height of just over 170 cm, she weighed only 39 kg. Before falling into a critical condition, the girl was on a strict diet, eating only a tomato and one apple a day.
Peaches Geldof. She died at the age of 25. The famous TV presenter brought herself to exhaustion by eating only liquid food.
Hila Elmaliah. Model from Israel. She died at the age of 20 weighing 27 kg. She was treated for anorexia for 12 years. The treatment did not work.
Sisters Mary and Katie. These girls were nurses. From childhood, they came up with a kind of game for themselves, the essence of which was to become thinner than the enemy. The game dragged on, the sisters died of exhaustion at the age of 24.

In 2013, fans of Angelina Jolie were concerned about the excessive thinness of the actress. Later it turned out that the star was indeed in the 2nd stage of anorexia, the cause of the development of the disease was severe stress. Fortunately, the actress overcame this ailment and regained normal weight.

Psychologist and nutritionist Maria Osipova gives some advice for parents whose children are in their teens:

In a family, communication with a child should be equal. In addition to the requirements for good study and obedience, the child must hear words of encouragement. He must know that his parents love him and this love does not need to be earned. After all, the first of the causes of anorexia is self-doubt and a feeling of loneliness.
Anarexic girls often become girls from 14 to 17 years old. Therefore, if parents notice that their daughter has lost a lot of weight and continues to diet, they are obliged to “sound the alarm” and turn to specialists.
As a preventive measure and during the recovery period, it is necessary to praise the child at least 10 times a day for any, even minor successes. You need to hug him more often, listen, discuss problems. In no case should you reproach the patient in the stage of reduction, with words like: “Look what you did, you almost ruined yourself!” and similar statements. You should be tactful and careful, because any remark can be the reason for new attempts to lose weight.

Psychotherapist Olga Sopot advises adults who suffer from anorexia:

Do not be afraid to seek help from a psychologist. A specialist will help you understand yourself, identify the true causes of an unhealthy desire to lose weight and help raise self-esteem.
Relatives of the sick person are also advised to consult a psychotherapist. They need to learn how to properly communicate with the sick and eliminate wrong family habits.
Body-oriented therapy gives good results. The patient recovers when he does gymnastics, breathing exercises getting a massage. These methods help to feel your body, love it, accept it as it is.

Psychotherapists recommend that close people of the patient do not listen to his excuses, but send a person for treatment forcibly, because in 85% of cases. Anorexics do not recognize the problem. They try in every possible way to translate the topic of conversation, refuse to go to the doctor and refuse to eat.

Possible Complications

If you start the disease, then it is possible death.

Before the patient dies, the following changes will take place in the body:

inflammatory processes in the gastrointestinal tract will begin;
the stomach and pancreas will begin to descend;
having problems going to the toilet;
will be disturbed by constant pain in the stomach;
after taking even a meager amount of food, nausea or vomiting will occur;
the menstrual cycle in girls will completely stop;
dystrophy of the muscles of the musculoskeletal system and connective tissues of organs will begin;
body temperature will be lowered, a constant feeling of cold will begin to increase;
the skin will become dry and lose elasticity;
hair will begin to fall out strongly, teeth will crumble, nails will break;
anemia will develop;
forces will begin to leave the body and the patient will not be able to get out of bed;
pain in the stomach will increase;
death will come.

Experts say that anorexia is not a lifelong diagnosis. The disease is treated, the main thing is to notice the symptoms in time and prevent the girls you know from becoming anorexic. After recovery, it is necessary to observe the ex-sick and instill in them a culture of proper nutrition, and healthy lifestyle life.

Live healthy: all about anorexia:

Hello everybody! Today I will tell a story from my life. What a stupid girl I was, how I brought myself to anorexia and how I got out of there. It all started back in 2003, at that time I was 15 years old. I was a 1st year student at the Polytechnic College. I was a happy life girl, studied well, rejoiced at new acquaintances and friends. Everything was amazing.

And so, somehow talking on the phone with her classmate, she told me "Well, you're complete". I don’t remember what exactly the conversation was about, like about the upcoming holidays on February 14 and March 8. But can you imagine, these words turned my life upside down for several years….

Now a little about me.

I was the most ordinary child, of average build. I've never been skinny, but I've never been fat either. Just a fat kid. Somewhere from the age of 12, with the beginning of the cycle, my forms began to become rounded. Plus, malnutrition prevailed in our family, a lot of flour products and sweets. And now, at the age of 15, with a height of 165 cm, the weight was 63 kg. Yes, a lot, but not critically. Well, yes, plump, as my classmate told me.

But what is most interesting, before her words, I did not notice this at all, but I simply did not think about weight, not about myself and not about the people around me.

It's now, I can analyze it so calmly, but then after these few words I was wedged. I began to consider myself, people, and of course, I saw a bunch of shortcomings in myself. And my butt is big, and my face is thick, and this is not like that. Yes, I was actually ashamed to go out into the street))

And since mid-February 2003, I began to lose weight and transform.

Where did I start?

And everything is very simple, I went to Rospechat and bought several magazines about weight loss. At that time I didn’t have the Internet, as well as the computer itself. How did I live without them.

After reading these magazines from cover to cover, inspired by the examples of others, I decided to use the calorie calculation method for my weight loss. It seemed to me the most simple and effective. I found the calorie content of foods in the same magazines, and we also had a book on baby food at home, and there was also a detailed table with calories. And of course, now I studied all the labels.

Ration for the day in the early stages.

For myself, I determined the daily rate of 1300 kcal, again thanks to the same magazines. And here is an example diet:

Breakfast : porridge + sandwich

Snacking in college: tea + roll

Dinner: soup with bread or second dish with meat + cereals

Snack: fruits

Dinner: cottage cheese with sour cream + kefir + cookies

In principle, the menu I had was not bad. I had to give up only the abundance of pastries, waffles, gingerbread, etc. I adhered to my diet strictly, because I wanted a direct quick result. And for me it was not so difficult.

Result.

The result was not long in coming, by April I weighed 58 kg. All parameters have decreased, many told me that I began to look good. The boys made signs of attention.

I was also very pleased with myself.

Here's what happened next, it was my biggest mistake - I Could NOT stop. On the same diet, I lost weight up to 55 kg, but it seemed to me insufficient. I reduced calories to 1000 per day, then to 800, and there were days when I ate 500-600 kcal. You can imagine how small that is for a teenage girl. And by August 2003, I began to weigh 42 kg!!!

If you want to describe to you a girl of 42 kg with a height of 165, so:

Appearance: a walking skeleton covered in leather. The bones stick out wherever they can - collarbones, ribs, pelvic bones. The face is very thin, the cheeks are sunken, the eyes are bulging.
Body condition- constant weakness, all the time you want to sleep.
Mood- almost always not very much, you don’t want anything, nothing makes you happy.

There was one more problem - I have stopped menstruating. That's the only thing that really upset me. Because I always dreamed of a family and children.

The attitude of others and relatives.

In September, I started studying. Many were in a slight shock from my appearance, someone silently watched, someone asked what was the matter with me. Even my history teacher was personally interested in my condition. I answered something in general phrases, like everything is fine, I just lost weight, active life and all that nonsense.

Of all my relatives, my mother was the most worried about me. And when I told her that I didn’t have my period for half a year, she sounded the alarm. And thanks to her, I recovered. I wouldn't be able to do it alone.

Anorexic life.

To tell you the truth, no one has given me such a diagnosis. But most likely this is only because I did not go to the doctor. But approximately from the autumn of 2003 to the spring of 2004, I was in the weight of 41-43 kg. I ate almost everything, but very little. In the morning, 3 spoons of porridge, a thin slice of bread with butter, I drank tea without sugar at school and could eat coleslaw with carrots. And in the evening again 3 tablespoons of porridge with a piece of chicken / meat or vegetables. To the surprise, I didn't feel hungry, I just ate so as not to faint (this happened a couple of times). I was very afraid of sweets, if you ate a waffle, a gingerbread, then a half or a quarter)). And the biggest fear in all this was that If I eat a little more, I will definitely become fat immediately. And yes, I didn’t feel too thin, I considered myself normal.

How did it all end?

As I wrote before, my mother helped me a lot. She herself went to a pediatric gynecologist-endocrinologist on the issue of the absence of a cycle. I flatly refused to go with her.. The doctor turned out to be very understanding and competent, she asked my mother to talk to me, to say: " That if it goes on like this, I may die, that I will not be able to study, work, I will not be able to give birth to a child. She ordered to urgently start eating, gradually adding portions. She even wrote on the sheets of food that I need to eat. And prescribed treatment for the cycle. And of course she asked me to come to her myself.

And after that, I started eating more.. I don’t even know what influenced this decision more. It's just that I was not satisfied with the current life and the fear that I would not be able to realize myself as a person and as a woman, including. At the same time, it was hard to see that you were getting better, and again I began to dislike myself and wanted to cut down on food. This was such a chatter for about six months, until I started eating normally without painful fear of extra pounds.

But I still count calories.. I could already do this in my mind. My daily allowance was about 1000 calories. I tried to eat every two hours, slowly increasing portions. The cycle was restored to me with the help of hormonal injections and pills.

At 17, I weighed about 52 kg.

Plus, due to the fact that more nutrition began to flow, I began to stretch in height, by the age of 18 my height was 169 cm and weight 55 kg. And I ate 1200-1500 calories a day. I felt great, there was an interest in life. And at the age of 19 I went to study in another city and began new life. But I counted calories for a long time, probably up to 22 years.

A few of my tips:

Girls, I beg you do not eat less than 1000 kcal . This is a minimum, less is generally not physiological for the body and it begins to break down. And so, there are many methods on the Internet for individual calorie counting.
Try to get your calories due to complex carbohydrates, proteins, and not at the expense of sweets, cakes, rolls, etc. Since hunger will come very quickly and there is a great chance to break loose. And yes, don't forget fat. As my doctor said: "10 grams of butter a day is vital for a woman."
Eat more often, but in smaller portions. Great if there are five meals . Again, this creates a feeling of constant satiety and plus speeds up the metabolism.
Exercise for at least an hour a day you can at home, you can just walk . It is very important.
And finally, do not compare yourself to other people and do not take to heart what other people tell you . If you are going to lose weight, then it should be only for yourself and your health.

Conclusion.

The technique itself calorie counting i sure i recommend. This way to lose extra pounds is very effective and fast, and at the same time you can eat everything. Only this matter needs to be approached competently and without fanaticism. Don't repeat my mistakes.

My other reviews:

Almost all girls want to beautiful figure and for this they go on various diets. But for some, this desire becomes too obsessive and, as a result, develops into a disease called anorexia.

They do not notice how painful their thinness is and still continue to refuse food. It is very difficult to get out of this state, as irreversible processes begin in the body.

The essence of the anorexic diet is a strict diet, up to the refusal of food.

Reviews

Natalia, 39 years old

The anorexic diet is a complete waste of time. I sat on it for a week, lost 6.5 kg, but then the weight returned again. From starvation I became depressive, angry, relations in the family deteriorated. It's good that at least my health did not undermine. I do not advise this diet to anyone, it is better to choose a gradual and more effective method weight loss.

Anastasia, 26 years old

I have always been plump, and this was the cause of the complexes. I went on an anorexic diet because I was desperate. I starved for 1.5 weeks and threw off almost 9 kilograms. Then problems with the thyroid gland began, and I had to diversify the menu. The doctor prescribed me an individual diet, thanks to which I continue to go towards my dream without harm to health.

Valentina, 42 years old

I never aspired to have an anorexic figure, but my husband hinted that it was time to go on a diet. Tried a lot different options, however, dropped a maximum of 1.5 kg. I had to starve. In a week I managed to get rid of 6 kg, but it was very difficult to deny myself goodies. But now I feel light, my husband also began to pay more attention.

Preparations

Reduxin

In any pharmacy, you can safely buy the drug "Reduxin-light" - this is not a medicine, but food supplement(BAA), the main active component of which is linoleic acid. It is quite another matter - the drug "Reduxin". This is a prescription drug. The active ingredient is sibutramine, an anorexigenic drug. The drug artificially causes a feeling of fullness, due to which the patient, suffering from obesity, ceases to exceed the daily calorie intake. True, sibutramine can only be used in complex therapy, under the constant supervision of a doctor, and if other methods of combating obesity have not worked, and the patient has a high risk of developing diseases associated with overweight. Anorexics, of course, do not have obesity, but there is a lack of body weight. And this body, already weakened, is forced to fight with side effects sibutramine.

In the European Community, the use of sibutramine was suspended in 2010 when the European Agency medicines published the results of risk studies side effects drugs: the drug should not be taken by patients who have ever had diseases of the cardiovascular system - it can cause tachycardia, atrial fibrillation, increased blood pressure, as well as convulsions, dizziness, dysmenorrhea and more than 20 side effects.

fluoxetine

He's a prozac. This is not a weight loss drug, but a strong antidepressant, one of the side effects of which is loss of appetite. A person suffering from depression, when taking fluoxetine, will notice an improvement in mood, a decrease in anxiety and fear, and normalization of sleep. A pronounced effect will appear after a week of taking the drug. In the event that fluoxetine is suitable for the patient. If not, then the impressive list of side effects of taking fluoxetine is not at all the worst thing. At one time, the pharmaceutical company that produced Prozac hid the fact that more than 2,000 people committed suicide while taking fluoxetine drugs. Despite the fact that before that, suicidal thoughts did not bother them, despite the depression.

ECA

Hellish cocktail: ephedrine, caffeine, aspirin. Ephedrine is a psychoactive poisonous alkaloid, a raw material for the production of drugs containing methamphetamine and ephedron. The storage, use and sale of ephedrine in Russia is prohibited, but this fact does not stop anorexics. It is impossible to find ephedrine in its pure form, but ephedrine-containing preparations are easy: for example, Broncholithin cough syrup. The standard composition of the cocktail is 25 mg of ephedrine, 250 caffeine and 250 aspirin. The girls take this mixture three times a day. Allegedly, it helps to burn fat at lightning speed. At the same time, naturally, it adversely affects the cardiovascular system.

Laxatives and diuretics

The principle of action of these drugs is clear: the former help to empty the intestines, the latter have a diuretic effect - this creates the illusion of weight loss. Naturally, neither the amount of muscle mass nor the amount of fat from taking these drugs does not change. But problems start with gastrointestinal tract from the constant use of laxatives. Diuretics, on the other hand, cannot be used at all without a doctor's prescription: they remove potassium, calcium and magnesium ions from the body. It is very difficult to restore their balance without medical supervision and subject to a half-starved diet.

diets

Community motivator 40 kg

On the so-called “drinking” diet, you can’t eat solid food at all. Only liquid. 10 days. For the most persistent - 14.

Between diets, girls switch to " healthy eating": thin slices of whole grain bread, 20 grams of dark chocolate (99% cocoa), a pinch of oatmeal, seasoned with grated for sweetness green apple- the usual menu for the day.

self-torture

Naturally, the body is still trying to fight hunger, and girls, despite taking drugs, have “breakdowns”. What they call "gluttony", but which in essence is an attempt to eat a normal portion of ordinary food - after all, after a long fast, eating more than a normal portion is problematic. It hurts.

Motivator from the 40 kg community

And after failures always comes punishment. That is, self-torture. Posting your photos with the caption "I'm fat" in a sit down is the mildest possible punishment. You can also put a photo in an album for criticism and get a dose of insults. You can punish yourself with a dry fast. Dry means you can't even drink. No food, no water.

When obsessive thoughts about food arise, anorexics are advised to imagine something terrible instead of food: worms, rotting corpses, or excrement. Do unpleasant things. Punish yourself with hard physical work.

And the last way - cuts. Anorexic women cut themselves (mostly legs, many then post photos of cuts on their thighs on the net). Actually, the problem of self-harm is not the problem of anorexia. Self-harm is an unhealthy attempt to eliminate emotional pain, intense anger and frustration. It can bring short-term relief both emotionally and mentally. physical level: on the one hand, there is a feeling of control over one's own body, on the other hand, the cut provides a surge of adrenaline, which, in turn, makes past experiences irrelevant. But not for long. Then again comes the feeling of guilt, shame and the return of previously experienced emotions.

What can you eat?

What do anorexics eat? Almost nothing. Nutrients and essential vitamins are kept to a minimum. Everything is more or less high-calorie foods included in the diet a couple of times a week or even less often.

The anorexic menu is mostly fresh fruits and vegetables. A girl is allowed no more than 500 kcal per day. The only thing that has no restrictions is liquid (water with lemon juice, green tea and coffee without sugar). This helps to stimulate the metabolism and briefly dampen the feeling of hunger.

Everything eaten must be recorded in a special diary and carefully analyzed and counted. Weight is tightly controlled - weighing is carried out at least 3-4 times a day.

Where it leads?

The way anorexics eat is no doubt a harmful extreme. These girls, with their fanatical attitude towards the cult of a slim figure, bring themselves to terrible consequences. As an extreme option, even death is possible.

Specific negative effects include:

Chronic low energy and fatigue, depression, fatigue, hungry fainting, nerve problems and mood swings.
Metabolic failures and organ failures.
Rejection of food by the stomach, constant nausea and vomiting.
Deterioration of the condition of hair, nails and teeth up to loss, bad breath.
Painful pallor, reduced to a skin-covered skeleton.

Is it beautiful? Not at all. Is it worth it? Certainly not.

Anorexics: who are they?

Most often, people think that an anorexic is a very thin person. Someone else adds details: bruises, baldness, protruding bones. But these are all consequences. First of all, anorexics are people with digestive and mental disorders.

They obsess over dieting, losing weight, endlessly counting calories, and always thinking they are too fat. They deliberately allow themselves "cheating" - a planned gluttony for metabolism, and then go to induce artificial vomiting.

In the head of such girls is a calculator for counting the number of calories eaten. They love to cook and feed friends and loved ones, but they never allow themselves to eat an extra piece. And if they relax, then their conscience will torment them. Hunger is washed down with water.

In the end, nothing good comes of it. Girls break down, start, eat everything that comes to hand, cannot control their appetite. Do not get saturation and gain a lot excess weight- more than it was before the diet.

What is the popularity of anorexic diets?

Such a diet is very difficult and rigid with strict restrictions, but works for everyone. There are several varieties of ways to lose weight, they can be divided into blocks lasting from three days to two months.

The popularity of the anorexic diet is very easy to explain - it affects everyone and helps to lose extra pounds. Weight goes away quickly, but after the end of the diet, it can return just as quickly. The most important thing is not to overdo it and not bring yourself to a painful state.

The anorexic diet can give good result in weight loss, while the body has nowhere to take the substances it needs for energy. But as soon as the diet is restored, he will again begin to replenish fat reserves in case of new stress - a strict diet.

From this we can conclude that such a diet is an unreasonable way to get rid of excess weight.

There are practically no advantages to such diets. This includes their low cost. Due to the fact that the amount of food consumed is reduced to a minimum and there is no variety of food, the diet is very cheap. There is no need to spend money on expensive products.

Another plus is fast loss weight. You can lose up to a kilogram in a day. If you endure the entire period of the diet, then a slim body you are provided, but what the consequences will be is unknown.

There are many more negative sides to strict diets:

Stress for the whole body. Potential for harm to health.
Weight return. Returning to a normal diet, there is a risk of gaining excess weight again, and more than it was before the diet.
Strict diets always have contraindications. These include heart disease, stomach problems, and general weakness.
Constant feeling of hunger, dizziness, unpleasant sensation in different areas.
Chronic diseases may worsen.
There is an acute shortage of vitamins and other nutrients.
At rapid weight loss sagging skin. It can be very difficult to get rid of this, you have to resort to salon procedures such as lifting.
