I'm glad you're feeling like you're breaking free from the ED. I'm afraid at the minute that I'm the complete opposite and am letting things slip down hill, I don't even know why.
I'm glad the weeks have been good for you, How are they now? I hope they're still good.
Hope things have got better with your hubby too!
lots of love xxxxx

Keep a food and mood diary and come up with a meal plan 
A meal plan helped me put my focus and strictness into that and making sure I did it. Yes, I did relapse and it wasn't easy and I still do find things hard but I found it good to try and focus on that and doing it step by step.
Also see if any ED support groups are going in your area, they're great.
I hope you feel alright today

I've been in your position exactly and I have worked with CAMHS for 2 years.
I got nearly to the point of being put in IP but CAMHS wanted to keep me at home as they thought it would be no help as IP can be pretty intense. They tried their best to get me better from home and what they did for me has put me into recovery, you just really need to tell them what you need from them.
I hope this helps in some way and that things work out well for you.

I have nothing now really. Me and my support worker are going to stay in touch. Other than that I don't really have anyone who understands, I have people to talk to but not people that get what I'm on about and nothing in my area is available.
I've worked all weekend which has tired me out. I hope you've had a nice weekend.
I felt like that about me ED, as if it masked me and I was afraid of what was going to happen without it as it has changed me so much.
You can do it, you can get over that final hurdle I'm sure of it.
I hope your counselling goes well for you
Lots of love

Thank you so much
Thats such good advice. It is just taking it day-by-day I guess. Just wish I could wave a magic wand sometimes and take everything that has happened back.
How're you? Doing well I hope.
lots of love,

I've been in your postion before and I know how you feel.
I never wanted to know my weight and I've been in recovery for a year now and my therapy has just finished and I still don't know how much I weigh as I perefer not to.
The best thing to think is that the more weight you gain the better you are getting. The more food you eat the more you push that anorexic voice away. I know it sounds mad and unbelievable when you're feeling so down about it but it does work.
It's good to hear that you're not exercising, that is a really big step and proves that you are getting better to stop yourself from doing something that you really feel like you should.
What I used to do when I felt like I needed to exercise/binge is to write down everything you are feeling if you can't tell anyone. To get everything off your chest will be a relief.
I know weight gain is scary but it is the steps to getting better.

I'm keeping in touch with the person that has been my worker which is great I've been finding hard though with it being the end and it has left me feeling quite alone. I'm going to try my best and plus I'm going to be writing on here a lot more often to keep up with the support and to clear my chest with how I feel. I'm going to try and not look back and keep positive!
I'm glad your infection in clearing; slowly but surely eh?
I'm working all weekend but going on monday night for drinks will be a nice change
How're you at the minute? Is everything going well for you?
I hope so
Lots of love,

It's been my last session with my support worker who has helped me for years with my battle with anorexia..which now I am in recovery for.
It's so hard to have all that help to be left feeling that you have nothing. I don't really talk about my eating disorder to friends/boyfriend/family and I don't want them to worry and become over protective.
I have learnt a lot from my support worker and I guess I just have to carry that on with me throughout the rest of the battle.
At the minute I'm in a good place I guess, my relationships with my family are great which is a positive.
I still have my off days but everything is so much more positive than it was three years ago and I want to keep it this way. I want to be healthy and to be able to live life how I want to.
I hope that everyone who reads this is well and doing great.
Sorry about my big rant, I had to get it off my chest as I feel I have no where else to talk or write at the minute.
Thank you xx

It's great that you're attending groups that are helping and you are finding support from.
It has been my last session with my support worker today and it's been really hard as I've been working with her for years and we have really built up a relationship and trust. There is hardly any help around my area on any groups.
It's good to hear you are cutting down on the alcohol which I'm sure is going to be a great help to you.
I'm really gland things are going well for you at the min.
Things for me will be on the up shortly I hope.
Lots of love.

Really sorry to hear about the chest infection
I've never thought about calling them, I didn't really know that you could but thinking about it that sounds like quite a good idea
It was my last session today with my support worker and it's so hard that now I just feel like everything has come to a stand still. I'm doing well with recovery but now I'm going to have to try even harder (with hardly any support) to keep on track.
Ergh, It's so hard being left with hardly anything around here.
How're you doing anyway? I hope the chest infection is clearing up!!
Lots of love to you.

I had a lovely day feeling a lot better but it changes from day to day as my therapy and help stops really soon now as I'm 18.
Glad to hear that your lungs are okay I hope it stays that way as the weather seems to be getting lovely.

Today I just feel so down, I know I shouldn't seen as it's my birthday monday (woo) but I still do. I have been looking forward to seeing some members of my family for months now and I've been let down yet again :/ they're the only thing of my bad that I have left so I feel really down now and that seems to have a knock on affect to the eating. I have two weeks off work though so it's time to relax I think, get some pampering products and take a bit of me time (which is very rare I get that).
I'm having problems with my hips STILL due to the weather changes here, getting quite painful at times but getting used to it.
I'm glad to hear you are doing okay. Sorry about the rant I've just had. How's your chest and things going for you?
Love and Hugs;

Really glad to hear about the swim! that sounds great, well done
Its good that you're getting into groups and seeking the support even though it's tough at first.
My group has stopped for the moment and it will start again near christmas.
How're yours going? I hope it's going well for you.
Take care, love xxxx

I don't like finding out.. gives me something less to stress over I guess. Even though it does worry me sometimes.
The group is going really well and I'm learning a lot and keeping a diary throughout it.
I'm glad things went well for you. How're things at the minute for you? I'm sorry I haven't been in touch for a while just haven't had the time to sit down and write :/
I hope you had a nice break with your kids!
Thinking of you.
