Hi all. I am very excited about getting support in my weight loss struggles. I have gone from 225 to 208 and now I am trying to focus on re-commiting and getting another 83lbs. off. I didnt gain over the holiday and that makes me very happy.
I have an eating disorder, I am 33 and have had it most of my life. I was caught with diet pills in third grade. I always thought I was a fat kid but when my husband and I went through my childhood pictures we discovered I was quite thin. I just saw myself as chubby, I was even skinny at times. Physically and mentally abussive father and a Jehovah witness mom with her own eating disorders did me in. I am in therapy and learning to eat normal, without a ton of rules or punishment. I eat as healthy as possible and do not beat myself up over slip ups. I have 3 sons to think of and I do not want to pass on my disorder and self hatred. It has been working and I am now ready to add regular exercise. I do sometimes struggle with wanting to binge an purge but I am determined not to give in. I look forward to the support.
