Needing Motivation and Support

I feel like I need someone to buddy up with and help me get up to a healthier weight. I struggle with anorexia and have been an over-exerciser before but I always feel less stressed after exercising and even my treatment team suggests working out (moderately and with good intentions). If I have to gain weight, I'd rather do it while working out so I can gain lean muscle and not just pile on fat.

I just need someone to help push me the right way and to help me stay accountable. I also need someone who understands lifting because I know nothing about it but still try, however it's infrequent.

So, help?

    I'd be happy to help out how I can. I really enjoy weight lifting. It's probably the biggest part of my fitness routines. Currently, I'm very close to my body fat % goal, so when I've attained that, I'll be switching to a mass gaining phase of training.

    Please feel free to contact me anytime you need.

    Also, if you are having trouble staying motivated and are looking for support, I help to run support groups through Facebook. We have lots of people in there that are improving themselves and helping everyone else to stay accountable. We teach about proper nutrition and how to exercise. I'd be happy to chat with you about it if that is something that you're looking for.
