Hi everybody!
Im choosing not to disclose my name, just to make me more comfortable. Ive been through one of these forums before, but it was a psychotic eating disorder one, and that was years ago. So now Im making a come back to lose weight while maintaining my health, which I believe also makes you feel good. So Im very glad to be here, and I believe its a step towards changing my unhealthy eating habits and feeling good.

Though my binging is not as extreme as it was before, when I would starve myself, I would still like to reform my diet permanently, sticking to healthy foods and exercising regularly. Blah blah blah! You all know the drill. I have faith that this will help, theres nothing more helpful than the support of others who are going through the same thing.

I work at a chemical dependency center, and am finishing my last year for a bachelors of arts degree. Then Im hoping to head off into pharmacy school. So the stress factors of my life are abundant but I wont let that stop me. Im also transitioning into adulthood (Im 21 years old) and am learning to take care of myself. My mom is in Kuwait and I live with my stepdad and sister, so I have to assume personal responsibilty of my health. But Ive been through an extreme eating disorder phase and have knowledge of what is right and wrong for me. I have lots of faith that I can do this, and Im ready to receive and give support! :)

Hi EasterBunny -

Have you seen our "Chicks in Control" area? You might find you have lots in common with the folks there.

I agree that there is nothing more helpful than the support of others who are going through the same thing. Kudos to you for joining, please keep posting and work this place like the wonderful tool it is.

Hey! :wel3fc: I think you'll find we're very different from other boards. Glad to see you here!

Hey!

Welcome!

I hope you can find the support you need here. :D I know I did.

I came here in January with some binging and purging problems myself. While it's something I have to fight, being on this board has helped to no end.

The Chicks in Control board is awesome. Also come and check out the 20-somethings board, I like hanging out there with people around my age.
