hi thinnow29,
first let me start off by saying that this may seem to work, but it
does NOT!! Although you may be losing a pound/day, you're also losing
your health everyday. You may think that right now you are in control
of bulimia, but you're not. I challenge you now, try not to
binge/purge for one week, and see what happens. I'm speaking from
experience. I've been struggling with bulimia for just over a year,
and it's eating me. I've wasted so much time with it-time throwing-
up, time thinking about not eating/what I can eat, time criticizing
myself about my weight, and now time seeing doctors, time with my
psychologist. The temptation to binge/purge is so great everyday. It
seems so easy to just get rid of it all in 5 minutes. For awhile I
forgot what my life was like before bulimia, how free it was. How I
didn't have to think about how many calories was in what I was eating,
how I didn't have to wait for the right time to hit the bathroom and
keep it a secret, how I didn't choose the clothes I wear by how thin
they make me look not how nice they were. I forgot what it was like
enjoy a meal out with my friends/family. I forgot what it was like to
go out with friends and not think about whether I'm fatter than them,
or whether other people are thinking I'm fat. Although I had these
feelings before bulimia, bulimia just heightens them. Okay, well,
this was sort of a rant for me, and well, right now I'm recovering
from bulimia and last week I slipped up for the first time in 5
weeks. And right now I just want to go throw-up sooo bad! Anyway,
please reply to this thinnow29, talk to me, we can help each other. I
felt the same way when I first started-like this was great because I
could eat without worrying and then throw it up and lose weight-but
it's not like that. Please believe me. If not, do try to go without
binging/purging for a week or two and see if you can. I'm here for
you.
