Let me start off by introducing myself. I go by Annabel, and im a californian( california was voted, by the way #21 on the fittest cities list ) I am 5'3, and 125 lbs.
Last year, ( yes, thats only about..... a few weeks ago!) i lost weight, yes, but in a very dangerous way. I was bulimic, and anorexic. But bulimic only on rare occasions- ( when i binged, that means )
i went down to 112.... and then after my recovery ( which was God's doing ) i bounced back up to 125. And yes, its somewhat difficult, i s'pose. But its not like ive not been at this weight before( i started at 135-40 )
Anyway, for the last few days ive been reading skinnydaily.com which really has motivated me.. but
argh, that scared, weary Ann still hides somewhere within me... i do well with eatin gin the morning, have a yogurt, some fruit, then afternoon maybe a veggie sandwich ( im a vegetarian ) but by the end of the day ive already had 2 bagels after this, and some more bread..... and then some hard boiled egg whites..... because i postponed running, and now its 7:14 and very dark. i was home at 1:30pm.
My goal weight forever has been 100. But now, i'm willing to just at least get down to 110. 110 will be a huge improvement. Gaining weight is not fun, as all of you know ( which is why im so thankful to be here )
so yeah. i also do yoga on saturdays....
thanks for reading/listening

PS : id also like to add that i am very comfortable with myself right now. Relatively, i mean......the bulimia was only my output of stress, ithink
