Re: Recovery Support and Achievements!
we can do it somehow :) never give up!
|
Re: Recovery Support and Achievements!
today i started back on the meal plan that my dietitian gave me awhile ago. i had a balanced breakfast, and plan to stick to it (hopefully)!
|
Re: Recovery Support and Achievements!
haven't purged in three weeks time^^ even though I've binged :/
ED... we don't have to live with it |
Re: Recovery Support and Achievements!
i had breakfast this morning!
|
Re: Recovery Support and Achievements!
I ate two meals and had two snacks.
|
Re: Recovery Support and Achievements!
I haven't purged since October 7. And I'm working really hard on following my nutritionist's meal plan and not restricting. I also ate in front of people yesterday! I'm not perfect, but I'm working hard :)
|
Re: Recovery Support and Achievements!
I've never purged or binged ever .. I've been sooo close too!
I love who I am in the mirror now. (: I've stopped looking for thinspo, I've started making my own with me as the thinspo chick [weird ... ik, but it makes me feel pretty!] |
Re: Recovery Support and Achievements!
I've gained weight...and I looked in the mirror and cried...
...because I was so happy, I looked so healthy. I've made my bones a lot less visible when I stand normally, this was the first time I have actually enjoyed looking at myself since I was very thin. My BMI is still shocking and I class as emaciated...but only just and I think that I can certainly fix that. I was so pleased with myself, I am now something more than skin and bone :) |
Re: Recovery Support and Achievements!
so i am a survivor of an eating disorder and i can tell you i never thought this day would come but i am goin to be a motivational speaker next year for eating disorders. i shocked my family and friends but at the same time i shocked myself. for one to see an eating disorder in themselves they must first realize they struggle with an eating disorder.

Re: Recovery Support and Achievements!
I just want to let everyone know that you're all beautiful. I'm so proud of all of you who have posted in this thread. It shows a great deal of strength. Hold on to hope and hand in there.
As for me, I'm not taking diet pills anymore. And I'm eating Healthy too :) |
Re: Recovery Support and Achievements!
I feel so great now I am getting back into sport!!! I am going back to doing cross country this year, I qualified for south islands for High Jump (that is the best from the sth island of NZ, and I can now run for an hour!!!
My goal is to do the half marathon in september, hopefully in under 2hr 10!! I did it before I got an ED and I will do it again!! (just to ensure you all know this is healthy exercise!) |
Gym=Positivity <3
* I labeled this post to be triggering because it involves exercise and I thought it may trigger people who overexercise*
Well I went to gym and did a 3 hour work out. :) My dad was with me the whole time so I did not over stimulate myself. <3 It made me feel really fit and good about myself. Apparently, my dad goes to the gym at least 5 times a week and I can go with him whenever I please, maybe even get a trainer! I think that this will increase my self esteem and not make me feel so guilty about eating. I'm feeling really good for the first time in a long time...:) |
Re: Recovery Support and Achievements!
I haven't purged in 15 months, minus a slip up during the summer!
:D |
Took a risk today
So today at lunch I doubled my intake. I mean it still was not much at all because of the content of what I was eating. Far be it from a normal lunch, but it was big. I also had a Reeces cup at lunch for the first time. (I never do that). And it means a lot to me to do that because I had a really crummy weekend for anyone who read my other thread: Purged Today.
But i've slowly moved on. And hopefully, as it seems so far, that I can move forward from my relapse. Oh, and I checked the book No Body's Perfect from my school library on Monday. Still reading it but so far I like it. |
Re: Took a risk today
Well done :)
What you did is amazing it shows how far you have come. You should be so proud of yourself. You have proved just how strong and brave you are. Glad to hear that you are slowly but surely beating this :D If you ever need anything i am always here x |
Re: Took a risk today
Good for you :). Just do things a step at a time and keep moving forward. You can beat this.
"You are braver than you believe, stronger than you seem, and smarter than you think" |
Re: Recovery Support and Achievements!
i havent skipped a meal in over a week!
|
Re: Recovery Support and Achievements!
Awesome job everyone! Keep it up :)
|
Re: Recovery Support and Achievements!

|
Re: Recovery Support and Achievements!
I ate a snack this morning before lunch. (1st time in over two years)
|
Re: Recovery Support and Achievements!
I've been eating meals. :D Which, is generally a struggle for me. I'm doing better though. <3
|
Re: Recovery Support and Achievements!
I'm still eating meals, only this time it's healthier. I would only eat certain foods that I labeled as 'safe'.
Now I'm eating more foods. :D |
Re: What have YOU done for recovery today?

I did the exact same thing today. I haven't purged since last sunday (i know it doesn't seem like a long time, but for me, it's an awesome acheivement). This week has been hard, but I made it through without a long trip to the bathroom. It's really nice having a throat that isn't sore all the time :) |
Re: Recovery Support and Achievements!
You are all doing so well! :D
@ Stella. You post made me smile. I'm so glad that you're beating this. <3 And welcome to Teen Help. Let me know if you need anything. :] |
Re: Recovery Support and Achievements!
Thanks, Amoroso (Linds)! I really like this site. I wish I would have found it sooner, cause they are so many people here with similar problems and a whole ton of people who help and are supportive about them :D
|
Re: Recovery Support and Achievements!
So, I don't have an eating disorder, but I guess I've been heading down that road.
Anyway. Today, for the first time in a month, I ate at school, and I haven't purged in a week. Guess I'm getting better? |
Re: Recovery Support and Achievements!
I've been eating a bit more lately, not normal amounts but more then I did none the less and I haven't binged in a week! :) Now to work on eating normal amounts and eating more healthy food than junk food. Oh and I've also stopped counting calories for the most part. I used to obsess and couldn't eat any thing with more than a certain number but most of the time, I don't look anymore, or if I do I don't have that certain unhealthy number limit.
|
Re: Recovery Support and Achievements!
I'm happily eating one meal a day now :D (my parents were getting kinda worried....) I will not let something like an ED ruin my life. I will get through this because I can. I've decided I'm going to love myself because everyone is beautiful <3
|
Re: Recovery Support and Achievements!
I managed to eat a big lunch without crying or hiding it or picking at it or feeling guilty.
I hate myself right now, but I ate it. |
Re: Recovery Support and Achievements!
You're all awesome.
Keep up the good work! <3 |
Re: Recovery Support and Achievements!
One or two meals a day. Still struggling to get to three meals a day and snacks, but getting there! Hopefully I'll be out of the Anorexia Nervosa diagnostic criteria and into ED-NOS by September. :D
|
Re: Recovery Support and Achievements!
I just finished a day with 3 almost full meals! I felt like purging and was about to but I was successful and didn't! Tomorrow I'm aiming for 3 full meals! And today i actually ENJOYED my food. i haven't done that in a while. Right now i am going to get a snack!
My goal for tomorrow is not feel guilty of what i ate today. I can do this, with a little bit (or alot) of determination! :) |
Re: Recovery Support and Achievements!
Yesterday I looked at my little list of food and calories and instead of being proud of it I decided I had eaten too little. I ate some cake when I was babysitting. So I burned it all off, but I acknowledged I had eaten too little and I ate something without feeling guilty or crying.
|
Re: Recovery Support and Achievements!
Great job everyone! Keep goin!!!
|
Re: Recovery Support and Achievements!
i let myself have a regular soda AND it was after my "do not pass go" time. i'm really nervous about what i'll look like in the morning but i know i need to remind myself i look different to myself than i look to other people.
|
Re: Recovery Support and Achievements!
Great job everybody!! :hug:
I haven't purged in over a week. :balloons2: Probably not eating as much as I should, but hey, it's improvement! :D Everybody's always welcome to message me if you need! |
Re: Recovery Support and Achievements!
I got my period this month. It may sound stupid but I haven't had a period in 3+ months and now I'm eating better and I have one again. Not that periods don't suck but it's improvement I think.
|
Progress :)
Finally after so many months my weight has stabalised. Im now at a healthy weight. Still have down days sometimes but i know i can beat it. After i came home from hospital i lost weight quick but i managed to bring it back up again. Don't know how, but ive stuck to my eating plan and have carried on eating like i should, and im no longer underweight but still looking pretty slim.
To everyone else out there suffering from an eating disorder, please try to get help before it's too late. You are all beautiful regardless of your size or how people percieve the way you are, you know that there's a hell of a lot more to life than turning into a bag of bones. I missed out on a lot of things whilst i was too busy structuring my life around exercise and burning calories that i actually needed to put on. Now i regret it. I know it's not easy but life can and will get better. I know that my eating disorder will always be a part of my life but i can control it instead of it controlling me :) |
Re: Progress :)
that's really good! i'm glad you are doing better. =]
