another problem that I have not told the people here at thoughts is that I was bulimic for a year. I was 110 pounds but i thought that was fat! I ended up losing around 20 pounds. Now I can't gain back that weight and I am upset about that.
Other than that I am doing pretty good today. I'm trying to keep busy but that won't be easy for me. I get bored easily.
I just wanted to thank all of you for your support and prayers. And for the two special people that posted blogs dedicated to me, that really showed me your concern.
Thanks again! |

Shannon...I too had an eating disorder for a very long time and went beneath 100 lbs. It took a lot of support and love from friends and family to get me back on track. I still struggle with this every day. I love life now...I am a strong woman....I'm not afraid to ask for help...I'm not afraid to say 'I just don't know'...Please get strong and stay healthy...I love you...as do so many ppl here....Good luck!

Suffering from panic attacks and suicidal thoughts, it's a lil hard to eat right. It also doesn't help to have motion sickness on a boat. I lost 10 lbs on a vacation where tons of food was available and everyone else was complaining about the weight they went home with.
When you "get your shit together", you will find a happy balance easier.
Oh, but love and support was NOT what got me back to normal:P Unfortunately. No, the sad truth was--as I hate it when people say it--it was up to me to fix much of what was going wrong. And, Im not sure I am fixed.
I can say I'm the strongest man alive...but that would be a lie:P Admitting to weaknesses and finding strength IN weakness are what help us find our own "norm" and acceptance with others.

Oh, and easily bored means you are not doing what inspires you. It sounds like someone is asking you to do a project for class but it's your least favorite subject. You have to find something that keeps the fire going. And, maybe tolerance/stick-to-it-iveness takes time, practice and patience.

I don’t know Brainstormer... playing musical guitar on the Play Station sounds like something that would keep me active like crazy. She was doing that today and when she told me about it, I thought I was going to become exhausted just thinking about it. I was at work and had to sit down. Sounds extremely mind consuming. Whew!! I am still amazed at what they have come out with lately. I told her I need to get me one of those video game things. :D
Shannon, I still commend you. You are on your way to being so much more than you thought you could. I am proud of you lil sis. Keep it up, you are getting stronger. Love you tons.
