It's absolutely stunning. <BR/><BR/>I am in recovery from anorexia and bulimia and I admire your candidness concerning the anxieties eating disorders inevitably bring forth, as well as your courage to keep doing the footwork. <BR/><BR/>Remember...Progress not perfection.<BR/><BR/>I'm going to add you to my blog roll.

Often times, the individual will find themselves in a winless situation as they use the laxatives to emotionally feel thinner; however, over time, the laxatives will cause the body to actually hold water, thus making them feel heavier."<BR/><BR/>So the discomfort you are feeling may be from fluid retention but it's not because you haven't been taking the laxatives, it's because you have been taking the laxatives.<BR/><BR/>You are actually creating your own vicious cycle, because what you think is "helping" you, is actually doing you harm and has been for years.<BR/><BR/>It makes me sad that your therpist and nutritionist didn't know about this sooner.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5596522382677342386.post-66574420459495070062008-08-19T23:33:00.000-05:002008-08-19T23:33:00.000-05:00I am so glad that you went to the appointment.

Your husband and family seem to truly love you and support you and that means more than you can know, because not all of us who suffer with something have that in our lives. <BR/>Just remember there is always light, we just need to look harder for it. <BR/>Sweet hugs,Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11518964123008830311noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5596522382677342386.post-64866929772754559062008-08-19T13:00:00.000-05:002008-08-19T13:00:00.000-05:00I like your picture in your blogBut I think I see ...I like your picture in your blog<BR/>But I think I see sadness for some picture, I am sorry<BR/><BR/>By the way <BR/>I want to introduce my site, the content about painting<BR/>If you don’t mind you can visit my blog and give the comment about my painting<BR/>If you interested to be painted, you are welcome <BR/><BR/>Leet Gallery<BR/>http://leet-gallery.blogspot.comLeethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08519648025464735165noreply@blogger.com
