Sammy!! We have missed your funny comments and wise words of support - it's great to have you back! I'm glad you foun the retreat helpful - what kinda things did you do there? Did you get in touch with any therapists or talk to any of the other girls in there? It must be cool to meet other ed sufferers - I only say this because I've never spoken to anyone face to face who's had an ed. Has it changed your outlook on your ed at all, or made you want to get better? Do you mind me asking how tall you are?
Hugs to ya laydee!!

I missed you!!!!! Glad you had such a great time, you guna expand on everything lol? I'm nosey :p
The thing about not seeing the weight, well thats something an ED does to you. you have to ignore what you see and go with what you know logically about the number on the scales.
*hugs* missed you! Its just not the same around here without your posts!

haha hey guys!! o thanks go being so welcoming! hehe...:) well, im not recovered, but my rents have a better understanding on my ED, and i have way better communication skills. i am now to be honest with my rents! i realize now i am WAY underweight and am willing to gain. i am only 5 lbs heavier than a girl who needed to be hosptialized, so... i guess i am underweight. i met 8 other girls! it was like me talking to ME! we all shared stories and all were going thru the same thing! it was amazing and felt SOOOO good!!! it was an emotional time, and we spoke about our feelings and stuff like that. (kinda tacky in sum parts..:)) but i lasted. my dad did so well. he made everone laugh instead of being so depressed. i really dont know what i learned because it was all emotional feelings and stuff!! i am on my way to gaining weight. thats my first step. i have made a commitment. i have binged and purged my last time today. and my goal is to not do it till next monday. AT LEAST. i hope i achieve my goal! i missed u guys so much and if only i could share the experience with u!
love u all!
