	freakyblonde88 » voilet_crystal Hey girl... I'm always up for more friends, and it sounds like you wouldn't mind a new one either.. ;-) How are you doing? Take care! 1 min ago
	freakyblonde88 » c8lin89 Hey girl.. MIssed you,. How's it been going since getting back to school?? Hope you're doing amazing! Luv you! hugs 2 min ago
	nyg87 » Miss H I agree, once you get on track it's easier to stay on track! I'm going back to school today after dinner. I'm keeping my fingers crossed that I can keep my b/p free days going. I don't know why spring break isn't at Easter. That's weird isn't it? I love daffodils! Those are my favorite flowers, I'm looking forward to spring so much. Hopefully it starts to warm up more! Congrats on day 2! How re you doing? 3 min ago
	shaz513 » catherine I'm with you! Focus on this amazing friendship we have found out of this awful mess. And know that I am thinking of you! You are not that person who I found almost a year ago, you are so much more now. Lotsa luv. XXX 17 min ago
	shaz513 » catherine You are so right that you are not going back to bulimia, cos we are in this together, through all the tough bits! I understand completely that you just need a break from the maddness of all of this, but that moment is not going to lead to a relapse, you are stronger than that now. And, I know that you will stick with me on this. You are my guiding light. And, I'm fihghting for you just as much as i am fighting for me. You said 'the good days will always mean more than the bad ones", so you know we are going to get through this to the good ones! 21 min ago

What I learned during recovery

Submitted by mmb on March 3, 2010 - 4:47pm

PLAN, PLAN, PLAN IN ADVANCE. Plan what you are going to eat during your day. What are you going to do if you are in a situation that triggers b/p. Thinking all the time about recovery is part of the eating disorder. I need to focus on the real life instead. Don’t trust yourself. If I know I always binge during an X situation (like being alone at home around 5pm), I need to go out at that time or find another activity. I am not strong enough to just be at home by myself and act normally. If I eat those cookies because I am feeling lonely they won’t make my friends appear. Trust yourself, and your body. Tell yourself you are able to do it. Tell yourself that you are not going to gain one pound because you ate a piece of cheesecake. God is an important part of my recovery If I eat tons of food, all the time, I will gain weight. I can’t have cheesecake and hamburger and fries everyday, in every meal, but I can have them once in a while. I purge not only because of my emotions, but it is an easy way to control my weight. I love food.
