Hi Emily,
Saw a post or two from you down below--just wanting to know how you're doing. Have you made an appointment to see the doctor?
Just concerned, hope all is OK.

Fab,
Actually, yeah, things are going.. alright. I still haven't been able to steady myself, which is what I'd really like to do. I'm just having good days and bad days, but it's hard to keep my behavior consistant and reach my two main goals - not to give in to behaviors like binging or purging, and, should I accomplish that, to start losing weight again. I have been to see the doctor once so far, but I definitely have more appointments scheduled. :)
Like I said, things are shaky, but I have been able to keep my bulimia relatively under control. That's been the hardest part, but I'm still feeling like a mess, just because - although I'm working on not hitting the extremes (binging and purging) - I still find myself eating very emotionally and gaining weight. I don't know how to feel good unless I'm doing everything perfectly, you know? I wish I could feel strong and together and all of those things again. It's a very uphill climb.
Thankyou for asking though, that means alot. :)

I'm glad to hear you have more appointments lined up...it will take a little time to work through the situation.
Have you checked out any support boards on the web dealing with bulimia? I'm sure there are some--also checking out some books and surfing the web for articles on bulimia will help you get to "know the enemy" which will better prepare you win this battle.
I wish I had the magic words to make it all better for you, but all I can offer at this point are two: We Care.
Hang in there, I know you have the strength to overcome this. As I do my daily exercises, I'll be sending my energy your way.
