Subject: Dropping those pounds

Okay, I've always been real skinny, only recently, my metabolism has slowed down. But I think I know why. I was taking Adderall for my ADD. I supresses your appetite so I didnt eat anything all week and then I would eat a lot on the weekends. So I was real skinny during the week, then I'd gain weight again, then get skinny again. I got so thin that my hips shrunk too, and none of my pants fit, and I already wear a size 0. I dont know about yall, but the only place I know of that makes a size 00 is WEt SEal, so I don't think I will be able to find smaller sizes that easily. So I think I'm still around 95 to 100 lbs at 5'2", but I think I screwed up my body chemestry on that adderall. BEcause my body has been adding on the fat very quickly since i got off of adderall,, even though I'm eating the same amount of food I ate before I ever got on adderall. for some reason this leads me to believe that extensive fasting isnt the best idea. Maybe eating healthy and sparingly in the first case is the best idea. In any event, I wonder if diet pills are a good answer, its so easy because you never ever get hungry and you can find them anywhere. Plus like 60 percent of people can be diagnosed as ADD so your parents can get you medicine for ADD that will supress your appetite. JUst dont take it if it makes you irritable, depressed or paranoid like it did to me. That's why I stopped taking it. But i wonder if diet pills are only a way of taking the easy way out, like you are fooling your body and only hurting it more in the long run. So I'm doing the anorexic thing now, I'm fasting, resisting food. I hope this will work. I havent eatin in like a day and a half, and now my body is really starting to burn off the fat. I hope I can get my flat stomach back really quick because i only have 6 hours until my prom dress fitting and I dont want it to be altered to fit the fat person that I am right now.my metabolism is way back up right now, but I still wonder, after this is all over, will my metabolism go way back down again, will i have to constantly eat healthy, and never be able to eat as carelessly as I used to?
