I was in that exact same position 3 years ago . Now I havent purged last Christmas. And I dont plan on relapsing.

Please its so much easier to stop right now. so just go ahead and stop . I learned the hard way by letting things get to the point where my health was in serious danger.

I would hate for you to go through what I went through. You think that the outcome is going to be that you lose all the weight that you wanted. But what are you gong to do once all that weight is off . Continue living like you did before? You cant . Everything will be changed your eating patterns are completely twisted and so is your body .

Our body is amazing. Everyday its working to keep you going . Keeping you alive . Fighting off infections when your sick and all these other great things to keep you going. So it will take time for you to notice that you have done damage to your body because in the meantime its been on overtime working continuously to fix certain problems and when your body gives up , thats when you notice how bad purging is . And thats when its too late.

I know ...it doesnt help much when someone says just STOP . so maybe I should rephrase that. lol


find something to do instead of thinking about your weight and food.
I promise it wont be hard .

the first day I started to look for things I realized that I had all these possibilities and I could have done so many things before.

hey i'm size 8 and i still look in the mirror and look for fat bits to grab at and tell myself how hopeless i am. it.s just the norm to have a little weight on your tummy your thighs your bum(i sure had fun putting there) any way i like hotchip have purged on and off for 3 years and i'm afraid this addiction is one that when you are locked in it is very very difficult to overcome. i have never lost weight by purging if i have it goes straight back on within days because i let myself be rewarded for the purge and eat more food than my body needs..i have taken up jogging in the last five months and the weight has just melted of i also have two babies to run after so that helps me alot...flip side is i,m at home full time and boredom can creep in thus binging is something that can always haunt you!!!my advice to you sweetie is pull out now while you still can, keep busy ,exercise and show some compassion for yourself ..keep safe

like the pringles add once you pop you just cant stop?!except pringles cant kill you!sorry to be so direct but it has to be said! if i had someone to tell me at the beginning what to do....then maybe i wouldnt have had tobattle with bulimia for 3 years......
ok here it is : 1.just eat healthy...wholegrain breadf,salads,fruit and veg,lots of protein and a good breakfast,drink lots of water.but remember its NOT a diet...its a lifestyle change...diets dont work!
2.exercise...even go for a walk!
3.dont eat after 7pm because its harder for your food to digest!
4.the odd bit of chocolate or mix fruit with yoghurt--]really good!
i can tell you now that if you just do this you will lose weight if you need to(which you probably dont!)in a safe way. this way the weight will stay off long term,and you wont be consumed with a disgusting eating disorder!! i really hope you read this and listen...its your life!

I am 23 and cannot stop throwing up after every little thing I eat, even if its a glass of water, I take diet pills, I take laxatives. I have seen a dr 2 years ago about it, but they just told me all the stuff I don't want to hear, they didnt offer me a solution to my discusting 11 and half stone body. I am so fed up of it all......I have no one to talk to, but can't seem to eat anymore without bringing it back up, its the guilt that I put on myself, I am dreading xmas, to have sit with teh family and try and not eat everything. I used to love my food, but when you are prone to weight its like your not allowed to like food anymore......anyone else in this horrible boat?
