Hello all.

For once in my life, I am going to embrace a fitness/nutrition program and have the willpower and patience to follow through with it.

I hate when people say, "Aw, but you're so skinny! You're going to kill yourself!"

I don't feel skinny. And I sure as hell don't feel healthy. All my life I've binged on anything I've ever wanted to eat. Afterwards I would feel guilty, but carry on with my life. I can't run the mile without my throat enflaming. I don't have the physical endurance to do much.

There are days when I eat more than I would eat in a month. There are days when I collapse from malnutrition.

I don't want to have regrets about what I eat or don't eat. I don't want to stare into the mirror and pinch myself, imagining how I was two years ago.

I want to be healthy, consistently.

    Hopefully you are able to find balance and good health
  • sounds like you have a constant battle with food which I can relate too. I think you would find this book interesting: "You are not what you weigh" by Lisa Bevere. I am not as religious as some people & I don't know if you are but it is a christian author & I bought it from a church I went to. There are some prayers in it but the book also taught me a lot. you should read it.
