    Hi! I suffered from anorexia for years (I don't like the term "recover" because the thoughts are always there). I try not to worry about the numbers on the scale but how I feel. Don't let anyone discourage you or tell you anything negative. Just take it one day at a time and do your best. Try to eat healthy and stay active. YOU CAN DO IT!!!

    I don't have any advice for you because I have not been there myself....anything I would say would be BS. What I can say is that I do medical coding for a hospital psychiatry dept and spend my day reading about people admitted because they are suffering from eating disorders . From my understanding it is something that is very hard to overcome....Stay strong and you will get there. We are here for any support you need. Good luck to you.

    I am so impressed that you are choosing to do this. A friend of mine struggled with it and it helped them so much to have people consistently keeping them accountable! Good Luck!
