Chick recovering from eating disorder

Hi everyone, I've been on MFP for a while, I started my weight loss goals in September of 2012 on this website. I started out around 178lbs (which wasn't my highest weight being at my short height of 5'3") due to my reoccurring obesity related issues dealing with PCOS. Lowest I got to on here was 139.0lbs before I gave up and got away from the website for a few years, although I still maintained my exercise routine, in that time I developed some serious eating disorder issues and have now come back as I'm trying to gain a hold over it.
I'm currently at my lowest weight of 132lbs thanks to tracking my calories and resisting my urge to binge... although sometimes I do fail with that. Anyway! I've been on here religiously for a little over 4 months, but my last account wouldn't allow me to post in the forums for whatever reason, so I've made this one and I'm glad I can finally get into community stuff on here. Thanks for reading :)

    @LovebugHiraeth Good luck with everything! I'm a weight restored former ED sufferer and have started using MFP to maintain my weight and sort out my body composition (trying to build a little muscle). You're not alone, you can do it. Stay safe :blush:
