Hello, I just joined these forums a couple of minutes ago! I am 26, 5'6'', 189, my highest weight EVER.
I struggled with bulimia in high school and have struggled with binging and overeating since (with occasional purging). It has taken me a while to admit I have a problem, but my continual weight gain doesn't lie. I can't fit into any of my clothes anymore.
I have been a very active person and am surrounded by a lot of very active, fit people. I would probably be a lot fatter if not for how much exercise I do, but it also makes me feel worse because I know I would look 100x better if I didn't have this problem. I feel like I can't talk about it to any of my friends because they expect me to be as healthy and fit-focused as them. So there is a lot of shame.
Joining this community to hopefully find support as I try to deal with the binging and lose the weight. I'm aiming for 160lbs first, and then we'll see from there.
Coming clean and being the healthiest me
