Deciding to Live Healthy and Looking For Support!
Hi MFP! I have been on this site for a little over 2 years now. I joined in 2011, dedicated to lose weight and do it the right way. But I have to say, when I joined then, it wasn't for the right reasons. I joined because I was in an abusive relationship with someone who only liked "skinny girls". I was determined to be his…

Having trouble with "healthy" goals
Just a little background, I'm 19 and I've battle with bulimia for 5 years. Before my battle started, I was 140 and looking back now, I looked great. At my heaviest, I was 175. I'm down to 169.5 now.

Any Rollergirls out there up for a challenge?
With my team's season just getting underway, I figure now is the best time to jumpstart my fitness plan. Since losing weight alone is harder, I was wondering if any fellow rollergirls would like to have a healthy competition to see who could get in the best shape over the course of this season. If your season is already…

Losing weight the right way?
Hello. I just joined this sight with the intention of finally losing weight the healthy way. I've been bulimic for 5 years now, and it got me nowhere. The successes were small and the losses were massive. After having a friend of mine join this sight, I got motivated to try. For anyone out there who has dealt with an…
