right so ive been on a diet for 3 years since i was 16 i was 16 stone then but now i'm 19 and 13 stone i lost 3 stone wich was great.
I eat 3 meals a day and do exercise aswell. I never eat chocolate, biscuits, sweets, crisps and so the list goes on.
I eat 1250 calories to loose weight i am looseing weight about 1 pound a week.
But one of the signs of an eating disorder is counting all the calories you eat and i do that to make sure i'm not eating over.
To tell you the truth i think i've beenon a diet tooooo long 3 years is way too much and now its just getting boring.
oh and i drink 2 litres of water a day.
Can anyone give me any advice?

3 stone in as many years is an excellent achievement, you should be really proud of yourself, but to be on a restrictive diet for that long can take its toll, and I think you can afford to eat a bit more than roughly 1200 calories a day, and still lose the weight.
When you first went on the diet, did anyone oversee it like a dietician or someone like that? Might be worth doing that if you did. It might also be worth looking at making small changes to your exercise programme or buy a healthy eating recipe book, just to mix it up a little, as variety always keeps things interesting.
But everybody counts calories. It's an important part of keeping a balanced diet.
Also, diets don't have to be boring! I'm not on a diet, but I like to watch what I eat. Why not have a big lunch with lots of veggies? They fill you up, are good for you and have very few calories! And you know what that means? You can make up your calories with some chocolate!
That's how I do it. You've got to have your cake and eat it! You deserve it!
I bought a book recently called How To Eat Like A Hot Chick.
I feel so hot after following the advice in that book! You should check it out!
Secondly mix up ur diet like the others have said get a recipie book and spice it up :P
