Hey everyone. I've posted in this part before but since then I've made osme major changes.
The last time I posted I was really really into the "pro-ana" community, and wanted to lose 40-50 lbs. In the past few weeks I've realized how dangerous that would be: I'm 5'6" and that loss would put me down to 110-100, and how badly I was hurting myself through extreme caloric restriction. I had chest pains everyday, headaches, mood swings that almost broke up me and my fiancee... I also realized that I'm only 23 and I dont want to have that kind of relationship with food for the rest of my life, and I dont want to teach it to my children when I have them.
I want to do this the right way now. I want to learn how to have a healthy relationship with food. It's just, I've been like this for the past 2.5 years. I don't really know how to retrain myself, and jumping in to "normal" eating is scaring me.
I guess I'm just looking for advice and support in getting my eating right, and helping my body heal.
Thanks!,
Kate
